ensure cursor is visible after user input except if the command
implementation opted-out. Hooks and timers should not enforce
visible cursor.
PageUp/PageDown and `<c-f>` / `<c-b>` commands still move the cursor
as this seemed a desired behaviour.
The current implementation only does this during regex operations,
but should be extensible to other operations that might take a long
time by regularly calling EventManager::handle_urgent_events().
Handle begin/end paste directly in paste csi, manage paste buffer
out of get_char, filter Key::Invalid earlier.
get_next_key returning Key::Invalid means there was some input but
it could not be represented as a Key. An empty optional means there
was no input at all.
Text pasted into Kakoune's normal mode is interpreted as command
sequence, which is probably never what the user wants. Text
pasted during insert mode will be inserted fine but may trigger
auto-indentation hooks which is likely not what users want.
Bracketed paste is pair of escape codes sent by terminals that allow
applications to distinguish between pasted text and typed text.
Let's use this feature to always insert pasted text verbatim, skipping
keymap lookup and the InsertChar hook. In future, we could add a
dedicated Paste hook.
We need to make a decision on whether to paste before or after the
selection. I chose "before" because that's what I'm used to.
TerminalUI::set_on_key has
EventManager::instance().force_signal(0);
I'm not sure if we want the same for TerminalUI::set_on_paste?
I assume it doesn't matter because they are always called in tandem.

If, for example, the buffer path now is a directory, MappedFile will
throw on construction. Using a try block to explicitely allow errors
fixes the issue.

Fix this by recording selection changes and allowing simple linear
undo/redo of selection changes.
The preliminary key bindings are <c-h> and <c-k>.
Here are some other vacant normal mode keys I considered
X Y
<backspace> <minus>
# ^ =
<plus> '
unfortunately none of them is super convenient to type. Maybe we
can kick out some other normal mode command?
---
This feature has some overlap with the jump list (<c-o>/<c-i>) and
with undo (u) but each of the three features have their moment.
Currently there's no special integration with either peer feature;
the three histories are completely independent. In future we might
want to synchronize them so we can implement Sublime Text's "Soft
undo" feature.
Note that it is possible to restore selections that predate a buffer
modification. Depending on the buffer modification, the selections
might look different of course. (When trying to apply an old buffer's
selection to the new buffer, Kakoune computes a diff of the buffers
and updates the selection accordingly. This works quite well for
many practical examples.)
This makes us record the full history of all selections for each
client. This seems wasteful, we could set a limit. I don't expect
excessive memory usage in practice (we also keep the full history of
buffer changes) but I could be wrong.
Closes#898
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.
This is tricky to fix better than that as tabs make text length
dependent on where it will get displayed and what preceedes it.
Also fix an issue with empty info title
Fixes#2237
Optmize the code to avoid allocating like crazy, unify various
info style rendering, crop content and display markers that there
is more text remaining.
Fixes#2257
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
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.
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
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
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.
Reseting normal mode will enable normal mode, which will trigger
a check for buffer modification. We do not want that check to
happen as we are trying to close the info box. Doing that mode
reset first will prevent the check from happening (as the info
box is already displayed), and will correctly hide it afterwards.
Fixes#1809
Do not implicitely change new clients selections to target coordinates
when the user did not specify them, so that we can re-use the selections
from the found free window, which is the generally desired behaviour.
