The RegexHighlighter range cache can get pretty big in nested
regions use cases, and maintaining it can become pretty costly,
so if it hits a certain size, just drop it.
Should improve performances in #2454
This should greatly reduce memory usage by only caching matches
for ranges that needs to be highlighted, in the case where multiple
regions are nested, this means only the topmost region needs to parse
and cache the whole buffer, other regions highlighter will only ensure
the lines for the ranges they are called up are cached.
Fixes#2454
This adds a limitation that capture matching on regions only works
if the regions start/end/recurse match is less than 65635 byte long.
With this limitation we can reduce the RegexMatch struct size to 16
bytes instead of 32.
This is still not good enough,but should slightly improve high memory
usage as reported in #2454
This commit also introduces a regression in that I decided that the best way to
avoid overly long and confusing names was to rename the current shell-*
switches to script-*, and have the shell command completion be
shell-completion.
renamed script-{completion,candidates} to shell-script-*
Updated docs with new switch names
Added -shell-completion switch to x11-repl and kitty-repl
Final is more granular, it consists of FinalFg (f), FinalBg (g)
and FinalAttr (a) which control if a face's fg, bg, or attributes
fully overwrite the previous face (instead of merging) and if
following faces apply on top of this face or not.
Fixes#2388 if the Whitespace face has the FinalFg flag.
Add <c-w> and <a-d> (along with <c-W> and <a-D> that work on WORDs),
and <c-y> which pastes the transient clipboard contant (which saves
big erase, such as word erase and line end/begin erase).
Fixes#2355
In the end, no better solution materialized so far, and custom
Kakoune line editing bindings are hard to remember. Using well
known readline bindings seems just more convenient.
Closes#800, although it does not contain all the binding proposed
by it (I might accept a few additional ones, such as <c-w>, but not
too much, I still see that as a hack pending a nicer solution).
