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.
2015-03-02updated documentation: cover undo/redo, the new ^G editing command and ↵Robin Haberkorn1-13/+118
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
2014-12-09support filename auto completions with forward-slash directory separators on ↵Robin Haberkorn1-0/+12
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... ! ]*
2014-11-21updated documentation on ED (buffer editing) hooksRobin Haberkorn1-13/+56
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.
2013-03-19fixed minor Troff error: ".." is not allowedRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1

2013-03-16generate-docs: marker looks like a Troff request nowRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
it is customary for Troff preprocessors to interpret special preprocessor requests instead of special comments

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
