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
First try to break at a whitespace, if that fails (likely because
that last WORD is too long for the wrapping width), then try to
wrap at a 'word' boundary (on a non alphanumeric character).
Fixes#3048
Falls back on old mechanism if `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is not set.
The ability to specify a session as "<user>/<name>" was removed, since
it isn't possible to compute the value of `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` for another
user, we wouldn't have access to it if we could, and it would be awkward
to support this feature only when `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is unset. Also,
`rename-session` did not work when another user's session was specified.
Closes#3019
This commit implements formatting behaviour when the first character of a
docstring is a newline. In that case, the exact indentation level of the
next line will be removed from that line and all subsequent non-empty lines.
An error will be returned if a subsequent non-empty line does not have the
same indentation level.
The docstrings are always trimmed (surrounding whitespaces) whether the
first character is a newline or not, as was the case prior to this commit.
Example: the following declaration
```
define-command test -docstring %{
test: do something
Nothing really.
More
indented
lines.
} nop
```
would be rendered as
```
test: do something
Nothing really.
More
indented
lines.
```

History registers (for prompt commands, pipe primitive commands etc) are
populated interactively by the users, and currently have no size limit.
This commits silently drops the oldest entries in the storage space to
allow at most 100 entries, to prevent long-running editing sessions from
hogging memory for data most likely never used.
This commit makes the `*` and <a-*> primitives compose a search pattern
comprised of all the current selections, as opposed to only the main one.
All selections are OR'd into the default search register, which makes it
convenient to search for several identifiers already selected.
To retain the old behaviour, the following mappings can be used:
```
map global normal * ': exec -draft -save-regs "" %{<space>*}<ret>'
map global normal <a-*> ': exec -draft -save-regs "" %{<space><a-*>}<ret>'
```
Fixes#2994
The `parse_keys()` function is case insensitive when parsing function keys,
while the `key_to_str()` function always returns a capitalized key
description.
When users hook on the lowercase name of a function key,
e.g. `NormalKey <f10>`, and later hit that same key in normal mode, the
`key_to_str()` will convert it to the uppercase description ("<F10>").
This results into a hook with a lowercase regex predicate being unsuccessfully
matched against an uppercase key description by the hook manager, which
works on a case sensitive basis.
One solution could be to uppercase all function key descriptions passed as
hook filter upon declaration, but detecting that is not trivial as the
filter can contain more than just the simple <f\d+> data, e.g.
---
hook global InsertKey '<(?<name>\w+)>' %{…}
---
Another simpler solution that this commit implements is to allow only <F\d+>
descriptions in `parse_keys()`, and hope users will know not to use the
lowercase notation when declaring hooks.
Fixes#2907
The previous "optimized" history register logic was unfortunately
not restoring correctly as the order of entries in the history
register could have been mutated.
The hook parameter should not be adjusted for the prevention of
scrolling. Also, ensure that the last BufReadFifo is triggered if we
encounter an error or EOF after appending some data to the buffer.
Closes#2946
On my system, some optimizations are on by default (NixOS), resulting in
variables being optimized out on debug builds. It *seems to be*
something about a "_FORTIFY_SOURCE" feature? In any case, `-Og` is
documented as "Optimize debugging experience".
Using <fg>,<bg>+<attr>@<base> will apply the given fg color,
bg color and attributes on top of base dynamically. Simply giving
<base> is a shorthand for default,default@<base>.
Inspired by the discussion in #2862
Sometimes we really need to have a String instead of a StringView,
but some of those strings might not need to own their data. Make
it possible to explicitely construct a String that does not own
the underlying buffer.
Use it when parsing balanced strings.
This permit to choose if files should be written by overwriting their
content (the default), or by writing to a separate temporary file
and rename it to the current file.
As discussed in #2036
The current implementation is wrong as it crosses basic blocks
boundaries. Doing basic block decomposition of regex is probably
a tad too complex for this single optimization.
Fixes#2711
This should reduce the number of allocations as the memory allocated
for the thread stack and the saves can be re-used between runs instead
of being cleared every time.
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.
Probably, the extra «s» at the end of «exist» was added accidentally. A verb after «does not» in Present Simple definitely shouldn't have this extra «s».
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.
Not having the `test` target (in the Makefile) depend on the `kak` one
prevents users from running commands that make use of parallelism, e.g.:
$ make -j all test
The above command sometimes results in the test suite running before
the binary has been compiled and symlinked, resulting in failures.
SIG_IGN is inherited after 'execve' and requires us to reset
that signal handler, which does not work well with vfork on
OSX. Using an empty function does the trick and will be auto
reset to default on exec.
When large buffers have been opened, copying Kakoune's memory
page descriptors can get pretty slow, making fork more expensive
than necessary.
vfork avoids that problem. While not strictly conforming, it seems
the few calls we do before execve (open, close, dup2 and
set_signal_handler) would not cause any problems on platforms we
care about.
the buffer name was not a very interesting information, whereas
the buffer range allows a hook to run only on the appended text
instead of all the buffer.
m_last_setup was not storing the actual position that was used to
redraw the window, but the previous one, leading to an additional
spurious redraw immediatly after (triggered by window position not
believed to be the one at last redraw).
Fixes#2562
As we do at most one push_next per step_thread, and we pop_current
before step_thread, we can avoid a branch there at the expense of
sometimes growing unecessarily (once).
It seems unlikely this would give performance gain, as buffer
lines are always accessed when we read that field, leading to
all the necessary data already being in memory. Removing it
reduces the size of a BufferIterator, which are already pretty
hefty objects.
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).
Previously, when wrapping lines at word boundaries, we would iterate forwards
for "wrap-width" characters, then iterate backwards until we found a word-break,
which was horribly slow.
Now we record the last word-boundary we saw as we iterate forwards, getting a
result in one pass.
Fixes#2339.
Due to a copy-paste mistake, the `:kill` command in a session with
multiple clients was the equivalent of a force-kill (`:kill!`).
This commit makes sure all buffers are saved before killing the
session, unless the force flag is specified.
Cast errors in RPC requests currently make the client quit with an
error saying "uncaught exception", since `Kakoune::bad_value_cast`
exceptions are not explicitely handled.
This commit tries to catch ill-formatted requests and return a more
human-friendly error message, without quitting the client.
This commit implements the -once flag on the `:hook` command, which
automatically removes a hook after it was run, to avoid having to
declare a group and remove it in the hook implementation.
Closes#2277
In particular, this make gathering a transformed range to a vector
faster because we can use the random access nature of underlying
iterator to get the size to allocate in the vector upfront.
Creating a window potentially runs hooks, which themselves could
trigger shell evaluation, which could handle urgent input events
such as a resize, while waiting for the shell to finish. When that
happens, the client had a temporarily null window as it had already
released its own window.
Fixes#2225
As discussed in #2186, in the end we need the exit status for the
case where the local client exited first (the server forked to
background) then another client trigger the kill command.
That means every Optimized regex had the Backwards version
compiled as well, which doubled the time it took to compile them
and doubled the memory usage of regex.
This should improve #2152
Previous Implementation was constantly computing byte/column count
from the begining of the line, leading to a non-linear complexity
with respect to the length of a line.
Fixes#2146
Unfortunately Strings that start with a quoted quote (like '''str')
are still incorrectly highlighted, a deeper refactoring of the regions
highlighter will be necessary.
Now that we have a nice standard way to express lists of strings,
registers can be fully exposed. An new $kak_main_reg_... env var
was added to provide the previous behaviour which is relied on by
doc.kak.
Registers are lists of strings, so this make it possible to set
the whole list instead of forcing registers to a single element
when going through the set-register command.
Option lists and maps are specified using separate arguments, avoiding
the need for additional escaping of their separator and reusing the
existing command line spliting logic instead.
As discussed on #2087, this should make it much easier to work with
list options, and make the general option system feel cleaner.
Command line parsing now works as follow:
* Quoted strings ('...', "..." and %~...~ with '~' non nestable)
use 'doubling-up' for escaping their delimiter, if the delimiter
appears twice in a row, it is considered as part of the string and
represent one delimiter character. So 'abc''def' == "abc'def". No
other escaping takes place in those strings.
* Balanced strings (%{...}) do not support any kind of escaping, but
finds the matching closing delimiter by taking nesting into account.
So %{abc{def}} == "abc{def}".
* Non quoted words support escaping of `;` and whitespaces with `\`,
`%`, `'` and '"` can be escaped with `\` at the start of the word,
they do not need escaping (and will not be escaped) else where in
a word where they are treated literally. Any other use of '\' is a
literal '\'. So \%abc%\;\ def == "%abc%; def"
As discussed in #2046 this should make our command line syntax more
robust, provide a simple programmatic way to escape a string content
(s/<delim>/<delim><delim>/g), be well defined instead of ad-hoc
undocumented behaviour, and interact nicely with other common
escaping by avoiding escaping hell (:grep <regex> can in most case
be written with the regex unquoted).
Automatic reparsing of %sh{...}, while convenient in many cases,
can be surprising as well, and can lead to security problems:
'echo %sh{ printf "foo\necho bar" }' runs 'echo foo', then 'echo bar'.
we make this danger explicit, and we fix the 'nop %sh{...}' pattern.
To reparse %sh{...} strings, they can be passed to evaluate-commands,
which has been fixed to work in every cases where %sh{...} reparsing
was used..
This commits changes the way `C` behaves when the next line is empty:
instead of stopping the selection, it will now jump to the next line
that can hold a selection as big as the current one.
The primitive's count parameter holds the maximum amount of selections
that should be added to the current one.
Closes#2061
Seems to work on openbsd 6.3-current but needs more testing. Had to
hardcode the binary path as openbsd considers getting the executable
path at runtime a security flaw.
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.
We cannot guarantee after an itersel that selections are going to
still be in ascending order, but we were calling a SelectionList
constructor that was assuming this was the case.
Pure clients never quitted when they got SIGHUP after recent changes
to add is_ok to UserInterface. run_client now tracks the UI state as
well and quits if the UI gets killed.
Doing that clears m_buffer_trash, deleting buffers contained there,
but we are not ready to have Buffer destructors running yet as we
did not clear the ClientManager, meaning we might have free windows
pointing to buffers in the buffer trash.
Add a UserInterface::is_ok method and return false on
SIGHUP/stdin closing/socket dropping
This should be cleaner and more robust than the previous SIGHUP
handling code.
Fixes#1594
Instead of using two vectors, we can hold both current and next
threads in a single buffer, with stacks growing on each end.
Benchmarking shows this to be slightly faster, and should use less memory.
Remove ExecState to store threads inside the ThreadedRegexVM so that
memory buffers can be reused between executions. Extract an ExecConfig
struct with all the data thats execution specific to avoid storing
it needlessly inside the ThreadedRegexVM.
If the local client was quitted during its creation (using -e quit
for example), we could have been accessing a null pointer afterwards.
Make the rest of the code aware that local_client might be null.
Shifted function keys are not well standardized around terminals,
Shift F(N) usually returns F(X) + N, with X=12 on xterm, X=10 on
rxvt-unicode... Default to X=12 and make it configuable through
the ncurses_shift_function_key ui_option.
This fixes what #1898 tried to.
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>`.
set-face now takes a scope argument, and faces can be overridden on
a buffer or window basis.
colorscheme apply on global scope, which should be good enough for
now.
Fixes#1411
Schedule it for later, when we get "idle". It currently can lead to
crashed because after the callback, the current mode might be different,
leading to a crash when doing the ModeChange hook call.
Session/Client/User modes names are now requiered to be "identifiers"
they must be in [a-zA-Z0-9_-]. Option names are the same except they
do not allow '-' as they need to be made available through the env vars
and '-' is not supported there.
Fixes#1946
In the end, % is not that painful to work with as its only set seldomly,
and we usually dont need to use expansion at the same time. Moreover, it
just requires a single \ to be escaped.
Fixes#1562
When Kakoune forked the sever to background, the newly converted
to client process (the original client/server process) was not
preserving its previous client name.
Letting any character to be escaped is error prone as it looks like
\l could mean [:lower:] (as it used to with boost) when it only means
literal l.
Fix the haskell.kak file as well.
Fixes#1945
As the computation of word boundary matches is separate from the
actual subsequence matching, we sometimes have candidate that match
as a single word while still having multiple word boundary matches.
For example, with query "expresins", candidate "expressionism's"
will match as single word ("expressins" is a subsequence of
"expressionism"), and will have two word boundaries match (it does
match the last "s", which is considered as a separate word).
This should not be taken into account when compared against
candidate "expresions", which should be considered a better
match.
Fixes#1925
Reference highlighters allow for potential mutual recursion between
highlighters. This is usually fine, but if the recursion happens on
the same buffer range, it means we will recurse infinitely.
Fixes#1920
Pressing Y or N will set the buffer (or window, if it is set at that
scope) autoreload option to the corresponding value, avoiding infinite
loops where a file getting constantly modified prevents the user from
using Kakoune.
To allow more general look arounds out of the actual search range,
pass a second range (the actual subject). This allows us to remove
various flags such as PrevAvailable or NotBeginOfSubject, which are
now easy to check from the subject range.
Fixes#1902
Change the logic of open line commands so that if a selection lies
on the end of line character of the line from which we open a new
line, that selection does not move.
If we have two clients, A and B, with B's cursor on the eol character
of line L, and A hits `o` while on line L, B's cursor should stay
on the same (logical) line. Previous behaviour would make B's cursor
jump on the newly inserted line.
Selection merging is necessary if we want X to work nicely when we are
on EOL (jumping to next line is as nice as it could be, and we are much
more often on EOL nowadays).
Some iterators were refering to to their view with a const ref, this
was making them non-copiable. Change those const ref into const pointers
in order to fix that.
This change displays command-line options in grid format. Each
parameter is indented with two spaces and then padded to maintain
vertical alignment of each description.
I think the visual spacing makes the options much easier to
read. This is particularly important for people new to Kakoune who
use `-help` as a way to become familiar with the program.
