This makes the function easier to find for newcomers because
to_string() is the obvious name. It enables format() to do the
conversion automatically which seems like good idea (since there is
no other obvious representation).
Of course this change makes it a bit harder to grep but that's not
a problem with clang tooling.
We need to cast the function in one place when calling transform()
but that's acceptable.
The UI now can send a 'Scroll' key, whose value is the scrolling
amount encoded as a signed integer. This replaces the MouseWheelUp
and MouseWheelDown keys.
The NCursesUI now has a ncurses_wheel_scroll_amount ui_option that
controls that amount, it can be negative to swap scrolling direction.
Fixes#3045
The current implementation treats left mouse button clicks as a
generic "mouse press" modifier, this commit extends the list of
modifiers by adding a "right mouse click" one.
The proper way to implement this would be to ship the coordinates
of mouse key press events in each `Key` object, and pass whichever
button was clicked as a codepoint value (instead of coordinates
currently), but this would require more work.
This commit allows:
* right clicks to set the cursor of the main selection
* control-right clicks to merge all the selections, and then set
its cursor
Fixes#843
By setting the ncurses_builtin_key_parser ui_option to true, we
can disable ncurses parsing of key strokes to get less portable
parsing but support for more complex modifiers.
Ideally, something better should be done (re #2554) but this is a decent
intermediate step for some useful keys.
Note: NCurses supports parsing these keys when shifted (KEY_SR,
_SLEFT, S_RIGHT, etc), but it does not do the same thing for the other
modifiers.
Window can be resized with an "offset_pos" flag, which means that
the resize took place on the top left corner of the window, leading
to a change in current window position. This is treated as temporary
and the position change is stored in a m_position_offset field.
That allows the ncurses UI to offset the position when it displays
a Search menu, so that the window does not constantly scroll when
the search menu open/closes. The window will only scroll if it needs
to in order to keep the main selectin visible.
Because keyboard layouts vary, the shift-modifier `<s-…>` is only supported
for special keys (like `<up>` and `<home>`) and for ASCII lowercase where
we assume the shift-modifier just produces the matching uppercase character.
Even that's not universally true, since in Turkish `i` and `I` are not an
uppercase/lowercase pair, but Kakoune's default keyboard mappings already
assume en-US mappings for mnemonic purposes.
Mappings of the form `<s-x>` are normalized to `<X>` when `x` is an ASCII
character. `<backtab>` is removed, since we can now say `<s-tab>`.
Add a ColumnCount type and use it in place of CharCount whenever
more appropriate, take column size of codepoints into account for
vertical movements and docstring wrapping.
Fixes#811
