Just like in the parent commit, this requires us to use a non-owning
type. Technically, these strings all benefit from SSO, so there is
no lifetime issue, but we can't deduce that from the types.
I guess we could use InplaceString just as well.
This means that typing
:add-highlighter g c 80
results in
:add-highlighter global/ column 80
Paths for add-highlighter do not get the menu behavior because we
want to be able to type "global/foo" even if "global/foobar" exists.
complete() merely iterates over its input, so we can pass it a range
instead of a vector. For some reason, this requires specifying the
type of the static array, or else its elements become String which
triggers this assertion:
static_assert(not std::is_same<decltype(*begin(container)), String>::value,
"complete require long lived strings, not temporaries");
Specify the type with an explicit Array<StringView, 8>. This is
pretty ugly but the alternative of appending "_sv" to every single
array element seems worse?
If we modify the vector of user modes while complete() is iterating
over, we could crash -- but that scenario is impossible since both
only happen inside the single-threaded server process.
We already use the menu behavior in complete_command_name(); let's do
the same for switches, since we can complete all valid inputs and
it can save a Tab key in some scenarios.
CommandManager::complete is fairly complex. We can't expect callers
to add the menu bit when appropriate, so we currently do it here.
The next commit will give switch completions the menu behavior, so this
is necessary so we can still type "echo --" without an auto-expansion
to "echo -to-file".
"complete_alias_name" is a better name then "complete_alias" because
it's consistent with more similar names, which are:
complete_client_name
complete_command_name
complete_module_name
complete_option_name
complete_register_name
complete_scope
complete_face
We define
using PromptCompleter = std::function<Completions (const Context&, CompletionFlags,
StringView, ByteCount)>;
Some command completers are *almost* convertible to PromptCompleter;
the only difference is the string type of the prefix argument.
The later commits in this series want to use menu() on the
completers. Enable this by harmonizing the types.

Instead of triming only buffer ranges, add a trim_from method to
display line to keep the initial N columns, we know how many columns
are used by non-trimable widgets in DisplaySetup::widget_columns so
we can just pass this.
Also restore the previous logic for face merging
Fixes#4670
Make the column highlighter faces final, and change final logic to
give precedence to the base face when both the base and new face are
final.
Fixes#4669
Terminals that support CSI u escape codes (like iTerm2, Kitty and foot)
allow us to map <s-backspace> independently of <backspace>.
Users expect that <s-backspace> does the same as <backspace>,
especially when typing ALL_CAPS. Make it so.
The first version of 0cf719103 (Make Shift+Space insert a space in
insert mode, 2022-02-09) did that already but I later dropped it
because I wasn't sure if it's right.
Always start with full buffer lines and trim the display buffer at
the very end, treat non-range display atoms as non-trimable in that
case and keep track of how many columns are occupied by "widgets"
such as line numbers or flags.
Fixes#4659
`x` is often criticized as hard to predict due to its slightly complex
behaviour of selecting next line if the current one is fully selected.
Change `x` to use the previous `<a-x>` behaviour, and change `<a-x>` to
trim to fully selected lines as `<a-X>` did.
Adapt existing indentation script to the new behaviour
