From a36473f4bb3c7ec31cfba638a9cbdfd2b6efb9e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Altmanninger Date: Sun, 31 Jul 2022 11:19:48 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Do not record prompt history when executing user mode mappings Commit 217dd6a1d (Disable history when executing maps, 2015-11-10) made it so with map global normal X %{:echo 123} X does not add to prompt history (%reg{:}). Unfortunately this behavior was not extended to mappings in the "user" keymap, nor to mappings in custom user modes. In my experience, not adding to history is almost always the expected behavior for mappings. Most users achieve this by adding a leading space: map global user X %{: echo 123} but that's awkward. We should have good defaults (no nnoremap) and map should work the same way across all modes. Fix this by also disabling history when executing user mappings. This is a breaking change but I think it only breaks hypothetical scenarios. I found some uses where user mappings add to history but none of them looks intentional. https://github.com/Delapouite/dot-in-the-sky/blob/f702a641d119fba558c06b24e5aba0ac73269076/.config/kak/kakrc#L169 https://github.com/mawww/config/blob/604ef1c1c2f4722505d3d29a4fc95e763a1fddbb/kakrc#L96 https://github.com/SolitudeSF/dot/blob/d22e7d6f681091fc3737fe460802f6d818bb7d18/kak/kakrc#L71 https://grep.app/search?q=map%20%28global%7Cbuffer%7Cwindow%29%20user%20.%2A%5B%21%3A/%5D%5B%5E%20%5D.%2A%3Cret%3E®exp=true --- doc/pages/changelog.asciidoc | 2 ++ doc/pages/mapping.asciidoc | 6 +----- src/commands.cc | 1 + src/normal.cc | 1 + 4 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/pages/changelog.asciidoc b/doc/pages/changelog.asciidoc index 8cd81a80..76f53f67 100644 --- a/doc/pages/changelog.asciidoc +++ b/doc/pages/changelog.asciidoc @@ -18,6 +18,8 @@ released versions. * History registers `%reg{colon}`, `%reg{slash}` and `%reg{pipe}` now have reverse chronological order +* Executing user mode mappings no longer adds to prompt history registers by default. + == Kakoune 2021.11.07 * Support for curly and separately colored underlines (undocumented in 2021.10.28) diff --git a/doc/pages/mapping.asciidoc b/doc/pages/mapping.asciidoc index c029383b..019a6bcf 100644 --- a/doc/pages/mapping.asciidoc +++ b/doc/pages/mapping.asciidoc @@ -59,13 +59,9 @@ It's common to use a normal-mode or user-mode mapping to trigger a command, like this: ---- -map global user n ': make-next-error' +map global user n :make-next-error ---- -Note the space between the `:` and the command.
