2015-03-16implemented automatic EOL translation supportRobin Haberkorn1-0/+3
* activated via bit 4 of the ED flag (enabled by default) * automatic EOL guessing on file loading and translation to LFs. * works with files that have inconsistent EOL sequences. * automatic translation to original EOL sequences on file saving * works with inconsistent EOL sequences in the buffer. This should usually not happen if the file was read in with automatic EOL translation enabled. * also works with the EC and EG commands * performance is OK, depending on the file being translated. When reading files with UNIX EOLs, the overhead is minimal typically-sized files. For DOS EOLs the overhead is larger but still acceptable. * Return (line feed) is now an immediate editing command. This centralizes EOL sequence insertion. Later, other features like auto-indent could be added to the editing command. * get_eol() has been moved to main.cpp (now called get_eol_seq() * Warn if file ownership could not be preserved when saving files. * IOView has been almost completely rewritten based on GIOChannels. The EOL translation code is also in IOView.

2014-11-11refactored SciTECO runtime errors: moved from parser.cpp to error.cppRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
* the GError expection has been renamed to GlibError, to avoid nameclashes when working from the SciTECO namespace
2014-11-11added all of SciTECO's declarations to the "SciTECO" namespaceRobin Haberkorn1-0/+4
normally, since SciTECO is not a library, this is not strictly necessary since every library should use proper name prefixes or namespaces for all global declarations to avoid name clashes. However * you cannot always rely on that * Scintilla does violate the practice of using prefixes or namespaces. The public APIs are OK, but it does define global functions/methods, e.g. for "Document" that clashed with SciTECO's "TECODocument" class at link-time. Scintilla can put its definitions in a namespace, but this feature cannot be easily enabled without patching Scintilla. * a "SciTECO" namespace will be necessary if "SciTECO" is ever to be turned into a library. Even if this library will have only a C-linkage API, it must ensure it doesn't clutter the global namespace. So the old "TECODocument" class was renamed back to "Document" (SciTECO::Document).
2014-11-09added EG command: pipe from buffer into Q-RegisterRobin Haberkorn1-0/+10
2014-11-09implemented EC command (execute operating system command) in spawn.cppRobin Haberkorn1-0/+56
powerful command for filtering a SciTECO buffer through an external program. It will be described in the sciteco(7) man pages. The implementation uses an asynchronous background process with pipes but is platform independant thanks to glib's g_spawn functions, GIOChannels and event loops. There are however platform differences in how the operating system command is interpreted/parsed.
