* it's used opaquely by SciTECO so it should be listed in the
overview of "special" Q-Registers.

on Scintilla styles
* The first 16 colors of the terminal palette can be redefined
using the 3EJ property - with all restrictions that ncurses
and UNIX terminals impose on us.
It is still important to be able to redefine the palette for
some color schemes like Solarized since it may be difficult
for users to set up the terminal emulator's palette manually.
Also when using PDCurses, setting the palette is port-specific
or only possible using init_color(). In order to allow color
redefinitions across all curses ports it makes sense if SciTECO
gives access to the color initialization of curses even if it can
guarantee very little about its semantics in general.
* 3EJ is completely ignored for GTK+
* use the STYLE_DEFAULT of the current document to style the message line.
Fg and bg colors are reversed to guarantee a good contrast to the
Scintilla view.
Errors are still hardcoded to a red background, warnings to yellow
and info messages to green.
This allows color-scheming more of SciTECO given that the
red, yellow and green terminal colors are not changed fundamentally
in the terminal's palette.
* info line is now also styled using STYLE_DEFAULT (reverse colors).
The Q-Register and buffer names are now written out using format_str()
which means that control characters are written out in REVERSE just
like in the command line.
String::canonicalize_ctl() is still used to canonicalize window
titles.
* Command line is now modelled as a curses Pad and "blitted" to the
command line window. This allowed simplification of the command line
drawing code and introduction of format_str().
The command line is now styled according to STYLE_DEFAULT (original
fg and bg colors).
The rubbed-out part of the command line can now longer be shown in
bold black - or even bold light black - since that is not visible in
all color themes. Instead it is now only shown in bold.
Command line theming problems will be gone once we use a Scintilla
view for the command line.
* The popup widget is now styled according to STYLE_CALLTIP.
* This means that all relevant parts of SciTECO's user interface
can now be themed. This allows the creation of themes that redefine
the terminal palette radically (e.g. Solarized) and the creation of
"bright" themes (e.g. Solarized/bright).
* theming of the non-scintilla-view parts of SciTECO is currently
unsupported on GTK+. The reason is that both the popup widget
and command line widgets have to be rewritten completely in GTK+
and are work in progress, so adapting the current code would be
a waste of time.
* Added a manual section about the UI and theming.

* ^FCLOSE is inserted when the "Close" key is pressed.
It is used by the GTK+ UI to deliver window close requests
and SIGTERM occurrences.
(this replaces the "Break" key used before in the GTK+ UI).
* The default action of ^FCLOSE is to quit SciTECO, therefore
window closing is possible even in --no-profile mode for instance.
* fixed a minor memleak in Cmdline::fnmacro()
* added ^FCLOSE implementation to fnkeys.tes to insert EX.
This currently has the disadvantage of overwriting
the error message with syntax errors if there are modified buffers
but it will at least not close the window if there are modified
buffers.
* SIGTERM will now be similar to SIGINT by default instead of
terminating SciTECO right away.
* the GTK+ UI handles SIGTERM by emulating the "close" key while
still interrupting like SIGINT.
* GTK+: SIGTERM and ^C will interrupt by sending SIGINT to the
entire process group instead of simply setting `sigint_occurred`.
This fixes interrupting EC and EG commands with long-running
or hanging programs and is relevant to the solution of #4.

* relies on a patched version of Scinterm that allows you to
construct Scintilla objects, send messages etc. before Curses
is initialized.
The Scintilla and Scinterm submodules have been updated.
* This once and for all fixes batch mode and stdio redirections
in batch mode on all Curses platforms and operating systems.
* Fixes the ^C-does-not-interrupt bug on ncurses/UNIX.
See #4.
* On ncurses/UNIX we will still do a newterm()-initialization.
This allows us to keep stdout/stderr alone in case they are
redirected. This effectively allows redirecting SciTECO's
output into a file even in interactive mode.
ncurses/UNIX now behaves like, e.g. PDCurses/win32a and GTK+
in this regard.
* Curses environment variable handling fixed.
The environment registers are exported into the process environment
so that Curses environment variables can be set/modified by the
SciTECO profile.
* Use term.h for accessing terminfo now.
Explained set_window_title() limitations.
* fixed interruption via SIGINT. If the UI is waiting for user
input, SIGINT is effectively ignored instead of letting the
next character fail always.
* Updated sciteco(1) and sciteco(7): More options, environment variables
and signals documented. Also rewritten DESCRIPTION section
(different modes of operation).
|
|
* the registers beginning with "$" are exported into sub-process
environments. Therefore macros can now modify the environment
(variables) of commands executed via EC/EG.
A variable can be modified temporarily, e.g.:
[[$FOO] ^U[$FOO]bar$ EC...$ ][$FOO]
* SciTECO accesses the global environment registers instead of
using g_getenv(). Therefore now, tilde-expansion will always
use the current value of the "$HOME" register.
Previously, both register and environment variable could diverge.
* This effectively fully maps the process environment to a subset of
Q-Registers beginning with "$".
* This hasn't been implemented by mapping those registers to
special implementations that updates the process environment
directly, since g_setenv() is non-thread-safe on UNIX
and we're expected to have threads soon - at least in the GTK+ UI.

* expands to the value of $HOME (the env variable instead of
the register which currently makes a slight difference).
* supported for tab-completions
* supported for all file-name accepting commands.
The expansion is done centrally in StateExpectFile::done().
A new virtual method StateExpectFile::got_file() has been
introduced to pass the expanded/processed file name to
command implementations.
* sciteco(7) has been updated: There is now a separate section
on file name arguments and file name handling in SciTECO.
This information is important but has been scattered across
the document previously.
* optimized is_glob_pattern() in glob.h
|
|
appending to "$"
* these operations are unsupported and there is no benefit
in ignoring them silently. It only confused the user.
|

working directory
* FG stands for "Folder Go"
* FG behaves similar to a Unix shell `cd`.
Without arguments, it changes to the $HOME directory.
* The $HOME directory was previously only used by $SCITECOCONFIG on Unix.
Now it is documented on its own, since the HOME directory should also
be configurable on Windows - e.g. to adapt SciTECO to a MinGW or Cygwin
installation.
HOME is initialized just like the other environment variables.
This also means that now, the $HOME Q-Register is always defined
and can be used by platform-agnostic macros.
* FG uses a new kind of tab-completion: for directories only.
It would be annoying to complete the FG command after every
directory, so this tab-completion does not close the command
automatically. Theoretically, it would be possible to close
the command after completing a directory with no subdirectories,
but this is not supported currently.
* Filename arguments are no longer completed with " " if {} escaping
is in place as this brings no benefit. Instead no completion character
is inserted for this escape mode.
* "$" was mapped to the current directory to support an elegant way to
insert/get the current directory.
Also this allows the idiom "[$ FG...new_dir...$ ]$" for changing
the current directory temporarily.
* The Q-Register stack was extended to support restoring the string
part of special Q-Registers (that overwrite the default functionality)
when using the "[$" and "]$" commands.
* fixed minor typos (american spelling)
|

out beyond empty arguments
* it was annoying not to be able to rub out anything with ^W if the current string
argument was empty.
* Now, the special file name and string argument handling for ^W is effective
only if the current argument is non-empty, else we fall back to the rub-out-command
behaviour.
* So now, if you press ^W in a string argument, it is rubbed out until empty and
on the next ^W press, the entire command will be rubbed out.
|
|
* the rubout/reinsert-word behaviour of misc. string arguments
is suboptimal for file name arguments as it depends on Scintilla's
word characters.
By default, the directory separators are not considered word
characters, but this could be changed by the user.
* The behaviour of ^W in file name arguments is now fixed and
independant from the Scintilla configuration:
It always rubs out or re-inserts one hierarchy level of the
file name.
|
|
* EN may now be used for matching file names (similar to fnmatch(3)).
This is used to check the current buffers file extension in the
lexer configuration macros instead of using expensive Q-Register
manipulations.
This halves the overall startup time - it is now acceptable even
with the current amount of lexer configurations.
* EN may now be used for checking file types.
session.tes has been simplified.
* BREAKS macro portability (EN now has 2 string arguments).
* The Globber class has been extended to allow filtering of
glob results by file type.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
|
|
* 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
|
|
* 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
|
|
this looks better in Unicode terminals
|
|
* 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
|
|
* 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
|
|
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.
|
|
* added platform-dependant file_is_visible() function
|
|
|
|
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... ! ]*
|
|
|
|
|
|
also changed precedence of + operator (higher than minus).
the effects of this should be minimal
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
* new Expressions::format()
* may be used format numbers as part of arrays (Q-Register names)

it is customary for Troff preprocessors to interpret special preprocessor requests
instead of special comments
|
|

|
sciteco(7) manual
* images are generated by grohtml. they are not listed in the Automake rules but instead all
sciteco.*.png images are installed and cleaned
|
|
|
|
* also updated sciteco(7): add SEE ALSO and AUTHORS
|
|
* 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
