2015-03-16implemented function key masking (context-sensitive function key macros)Robin Haberkorn1-0/+33
* fnkeys.tes has been updated to enable the command line editing macros (cursor keys, etc.) only in the "start" state. This avoids the annoying effect of inserting the macros into string arguments where they have no effect and must be rubbed out again.
2015-03-16documented the automatic EOL translation featureRobin Haberkorn1-4/+55
2015-03-10added the <"I> conditional for checking a directory separatorRobin Haberkorn1-1/+12
* It is still useful to have this in macros since you may want to work with non-normalized file names. For instance, env variables (including $SCITECOPATH and $SCITECOCONFIG) may (and will probably) include backward-slash separators on Windows
2015-03-10always normalize directory separators to "/" in the "*" Q-RegisterRobin Haberkorn1-1/+9
* on Windows, this register contained backward slashes. This means that macros working with that register had to cope with both forward and backward slashes. * The file names are still displayed in the native style by the UI * This approach also has disadvantages: What if the user wants to insert the current file name somewhere where "\" is expected? However, this seems to be an unlikely case and the use can still replace the "/" with "\" again. * Avoid some virtual method calls in QRegisterBufferInfo
2015-03-07sciteco(7): Use em-dash (\[em]) characters instead of "-" in sentencesRobin Haberkorn1-6/+6
this looks better in Unicode terminals
2015-03-07Curses UI: fixed translation of the backspace keyRobin Haberkorn1-1/+5
* for historic reasons, the backspace key can be transmitted as ^H by the terminal. Some terminal emulators might do that - these are fixed by this commit. * Use CTL_KEY('H') instead of standard C '\b' as the former is less ambiguous given the confusion around the backspace character.

removal of ^T
2015-02-11implemented support for different indention stylesRobin Haberkorn1-1/+11
* the ^I command was altered to insert indention characters rather than plain tabs always. * The <TAB> immediate editing command was added for all insertion arguments (I, ^I but also FR and FS) * documentation was extended for a discussion of indention

Windows * this is actually UNTESTED on Windows
2014-12-09Curses: support cycling through long lists of possible auto-completions and ↵Robin Haberkorn1-1/+9
optimized screen refreshing/redrawing * pressing e.g. TAB when the popup is showing a list of auto-completions will show the next page, eventually beginning at the first one again. * do not redraw curses windows in the UI methods directly. this resulted in flickering during command-line editing macros and ordinary macro calls because the physical screen was updated immediately. Instead, window refreshing and updated is done centrally in event_loop_iter() only after a key has been processed. Also we use wnoutrefresh() and doupdate() to send as little to the terminal (emulator) as possible.
2014-12-08do not show possible completions for hidden files and directoriesRobin Haberkorn1-1/+12
* added platform-dependant file_is_visible() function
2014-11-24implemented pQq and :Qq commandsRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
2014-11-22allow setting the "*" register as an alternative to nEBRobin Haberkorn1-1/+18
this is more consistent with SciTECO's idea of abstract registers and allows the currend buffer to be saved on the Q-Register stack. This allows the idiom: [* ! ...change current buffer... ! ]*

2014-11-17updated sciteco(7): information on Scintilla views versus documentsRobin Haberkorn1-3/+30
2014-11-14added ^# (XOR) operatorRobin Haberkorn1-3/+6
also changed precedence of + operator (higher than minus). the effects of this should be minimal
2014-11-10support new "~" conditional: useful for implying default parameters in macrosRobin Haberkorn1-8/+27
2014-11-09documented EC and EG commandsRobin Haberkorn1-0/+3
2014-11-02changed syntax for long Q-Register names: use [] brackets instead of {}Robin Haberkorn1-4/+4
this breaks many existing scripts, and means you may have to rebuild SciTECO with ./configure --enable-bootstrap The syntax of SciTECO might change in backwards-incompatible until version 1.0 is released.

2013-03-16first draft of TECO command documentation generatorRobin Haberkorn1-0/+12
* the language reference is a manually written man-page template * containing special references for generated documentation (\#$...) * SciTECO script generate-docs.tes extracts TECO comments (/*$ ... */) from all source files and transforms them to Troff requests that are inserted into the document template. * TECO doc comments are a rather sophisticated markup: * first part until empty line is called header: simplified command syntax descriptions * the rest is called body: <identifier> is automatically underlined, empty lines generate new paragraphs, lines beginning with "-" or numbers denote an indented unordered or numbered list item. * regular Troff requests/macros can be used for more sophisticated markup * since Autoconf substitutions are performed on the generated man-page, @VARIABLEs@ may be used in doc comments as well
