* Popup entries are added with expanded directory names, so we have to skip the
expanded directory names from the clicked popup entries.
|
|
* Curses allows scrolling with the scroll wheel at least
if mouse support is enabled via ED flags.
Gtk always supported that.
* Allow clicking on popup entries to fully autocomplete them.
Since this behavior - just like auto completions - is parser state-dependant,
I introduced a new state method (insert_completion_cb).
All the implementations are currently in cmdline.c since there is some overlap
with the process_edit_cmd_cb implementations.
* Fixed pressing undefined function keys while showing the popup.
The popup area is no longer redrawn/replaced with the Scintilla view.
Instead, continue to show the popup.

* This is not simply determined at compile-time but queries the concrete path
at least on Windows and OS X.
* The Windows implementation is kind of hacky and relies on undocumented behavior.
It's also not even tested yet!
* On Linux and FreeBSD completions will always be case-sensitive as they used to be.
There does not appear to be any API to query case sensitivity of a given path or even
the entire file system.
At most, we could white-list a number of case-insensitive file systems.

* You can now specify `--with-scitecodatadir` as a relative path,
that will be interpreted relative to the binary's location.
* Win32 binaries already were relocatable, but this was a Windows-specific
hack. Win32 binaries are now built with `--with-scitecodatadir=.`
since everything is in a single directory.
* Ubuntu packages are now also built `--with-scitecodatadir=../share/sciteco`.
This is not crucial for ordinary installations, but is meant for AppImage creation.
* Since AppImages are now built from relocatable packages,
we no longer need the unionfs-workaround from pkg2appimage.
This should fix the strange root contents when autocompleting in
AppImage builds.
* This might also fix the appimage.github.io CI issues.
I assume that because I could reproduce the issue on FreeBSD's
Linuxulator in dependence of pkg2appimage's "union"-setting.
See https://github.com/AppImage/appimage.github.io/pull/3402
* Determining the binary location actually turned out be hard and
very platform-dependant. There are now implementations for Windows
(which could also read argv[0]), Linux and generic UNIX (which
works on FreeBSD, but I am not sure about the others).
I believe this could also be useful on Mac OS to create app bundles,
but this needs to be tested - currently the Mac OS binaries are
installed into fixed locations and don't use relocation.

* pressing ^W in FG now deletes the entire directory component as in EB
* commands without glob patterns (eg. EW) can now autocomplete file names containing
glob patterns
* When the autocompletion contains a glob character in commands accepting
glob patterns like EB or EN, we now escape the glob pattern.
This already helps if the remaining file name can be autocompleted in one go.
Unfortunately, this is still insufficient if we can only partially complete
and the partial completion contains glob characters.
For instance, if there are 2 files: `file?.txt` and `file?.foo`,
completing after `f` will insert `ile[?].`.
The second try to press Tab will already do nothing.
To fully support these cases, we need a version of teco_file_auto_complete()
accepting glob patterns.
Perhaps we can simply append `*` to the given glob pattern.

* The default ANSI versions of the Win32 API calls worked only as
long as we used the ANSI subset of UTF-8 in filenames.
* There is g_win32_locale_filename_from_utf8(), but it's not guaranteed
to derive an unique filename.
* Therefore we define UNICODE and convert between UTF-8 and UTF-16
(Windows' native Unicode encoding).
|
|
* ^Uq however always sets an UTF8 register as the source
is supposed to be a SciTECO macro which is always UTF-8.
* :^Uq preserves the register's encoding
* teco_doc_set_string() now also sets the encoding
* instead of trying to restore the encoding in teco_doc_undo_set_string(),
we now swap out the document in a teco_doc_t and pass it to an undo token.
* The get_codepage() Q-Reg method has been removed as the same
can now be done with teco_doc_get_string() and the get_string() method.

registers
* An empty but valid teco_string_t can contain NULL pointers.
More precisely, a state's done_cb() can be invoked with such empty strings
in case of empty string arguments.
Also a registers get_string() can return the NULL pointer
for existing registers with uninitialized string parts.
* In all of these cases, the language should treat "uninitialized" strings
exactly like empty strings.
* Not doing so, resulted in a number of vulnerabilities.
* EN$$ crashed if "_" was uninitialized
* The ^E@q and ^ENq string building constructs would crash for existing but
uninitialized registers q.
* ?$ would crash
* ESSETILEXER$$ would crash
* This is now fixed.
Test cases have been added.
* I cannot guarantee that I have found all such cases.
Generally, it might be wise to change our definitions and make sure that
every teco_string_t must have an associated heap object to be valid.
All functions returning pointer+length pairs should consequently also never
return NULL pointers.

This is a total conversion of SciTECO to plain C (GNU C11).
The chance was taken to improve a lot of internal datastructures,
fix fundamental bugs and lay the foundations of future features.
The GTK user interface is now in an useable state!
All changes have been squashed together.
The language itself has almost not changed at all, except for:
* Detection of string terminators (usually Escape) now takes
the string building characters into account.
A string is only terminated outside of string building characters.
In other words, you can now for instance write
I^EQ[Hello$world]$
This removes one of the last bits of shellisms which is out of
place in SciTECO where no tokenization/lexing is performed.
Consequently, the current termination character can also be
escaped using ^Q/^R.
This is used by auto completions to make sure that strings
are inserted verbatim and without unwanted sideeffects.
* All strings can now safely contain null-characters
(see also: 8-bit cleanliness).
The null-character itself (^@) is not (yet) a valid SciTECO
command, though.
An incomplete list of changes:
* We got rid of the BSD headers for RB trees and lists/queues.
The problem with them was that they used a form of metaprogramming
only to gain a bit of type safety. It also resulted in less
readble code. This was a C++ desease.
The new code avoids metaprogramming only to gain type safety.
The BSD tree.h has been replaced by rb3ptr by Jens Stimpfle
(https://github.com/jstimpfle/rb3ptr).
This implementation is also more memory efficient than BSD's.
The BSD list.h and queue.h has been replaced with a custom
src/list.h.
* Fixed crashes, performance issues and compatibility issues with
the Gtk 3 User Interface.
It is now more or less ready for general use.
The GDK lock is no longer used to avoid using deprecated functions.
On the downside, the new implementation (driving the Gtk event loop
stepwise) is even slower than the old one.
A few glitches remain (see TODO), but it is hoped that they will
be resolved by the Scintilla update which will be performed soon.
* A lot of program units have been split up, so they are shorter
and easier to maintain: core-commands.c, qreg-commands.c,
goto-commands.c, file-utils.h.
* Parser states are simply structs of callbacks now.
They still use a kind of polymorphy using a preprocessor trick.
TECO_DEFINE_STATE() takes an initializer list that will be
merged with the default list of field initializers.
To "subclass" states, you can simply define new macros that add
initializers to existing macros.
* Parsers no longer have a "transitions" table but the input_cb()
may use switch-case statements.
There are also teco_machine_main_transition_t now which can
be used to implement simple transitions. Additionally, you
can specify functions to execute during transitions.
This largely avoids long switch-case-statements.
* Parsers are embeddable/reusable now, at least in parse-only mode.
This does not currently bring any advantages but may later
be used to write a Scintilla lexer for TECO syntax highlighting.
Once parsers are fully embeddable, it will also be possible
to run TECO macros in a kind of coroutine which would allow
them to process string arguments in real time.
* undo.[ch] still uses metaprogramming extensively but via
the C preprocessor of course. On the downside, most undo
token generators must be initiated explicitly (theoretically
we could have used embedded functions / trampolines to
instantiate automatically but this has turned out to be
dangereous).
There is a TECO_DEFINE_UNDO_CALL() to generate closures for
arbitrary functions now (ie. to call an arbitrary function
at undo-time). This simplified a lot of code and is much
shorter than manually pushing undo tokens in many cases.
* Instead of the ridiculous C++ Curiously Recurring Template
Pattern to achieve static polymorphy for user interface
implementations, we now simply declare all functions to
implement in interface.h and link in the implementations.
This is possible since we no longer hace to define
interface subclasses (all state is static variables in
the interface's *.c files).
* Headers are now significantly shorter than in C++ since
we can often hide more of our "class" implementations.
* Memory counting is based on dlmalloc for most platforms now.
Unfortunately, there is no malloc implementation that
provides an efficient constant-time memory counter that
is guaranteed to decrease when freeing memory.
But since we use a defined malloc implementation now,
malloc_usable_size() can be used safely for tracking memory use.
malloc() replacement is very tricky on Windows, so we
use a poll thread on Windows. This can also be enabled
on other supported platforms using --disable-malloc-replacement.
All in all, I'm still not pleased with the state of memory
limiting. It is a mess.
* Error handling uses GError now. This has the advantage that
the GError codes can be reused once we support error catching
in the SciTECO language.
* Added a few more test suite cases.
* Haiku is no longer supported as builds are instable and
I did not manage to debug them - quite possibly Haiku bugs
were responsible.
* Glib v2.44 or later are now required.
The GTK UI requires Gtk+ v3.12 or later now.
The GtkFlowBox fallback and sciteco-wrapper workaround are
no longer required.
* We now extensively use the GCC/Clang-specific g_auto
feature (automatic deallocations when leaving the current
code block).
* Updated copyright to 2021.
SciTECO has been in continuous development, even though there
have been no commits since 2018.
* Since these changes are so significant, the target release has
been set to v2.0.
It is planned that beginning with v3.0, the language will be
kept stable.
