Why?
Most users who pass the current selection to grep likely do not intend to pass
the selection as a regex input string.
This makes the grepcmd use an additional -F flag to perform literal-string
matching for the current selection. The -F flag seems to be the standard flag
for literal-string matching in every grep implementation I've found.
Positional arguments in awk’s printf is a feature that is only available
in the GNU implementation of awk (gawk). So the ctags auto-completion feature
was broken in Kakoune if the installed version of awk was nawk or mawk.
This simple change makes it retro-compatible with those versions.
See https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/html_node/Printf-Ordering.html
When calling `:gopls definition`, the gopls LSP server returns the location of
the selected definition. Then, `gopls.kak` tries to parse this output to
feed the `:edit` command and open the file in Kakoune. To do this, it
uses `sed` to transform `<path>.go:<line>:<colstart>-<colend>` to `<path>.go
<line> <colstart>`. However, if the `<path>` contains a dash character,
the `sed` will fail and strip everything after this first dash, removing
the line and columns information.
Closes#4776
This is equivalent to a change to grep.kak in 649e252f7 (bring *grep*
buffer to front in context of toolsclient, 2020-08-14).
If a toolsclient is set, make-next-error (and make-previous-error) will
jump to %opt{make_current_error_line}. This is wrong if the toolsclient
does not show the *make* buffer. In that case make_current_error_line
is undefined and we end up showing the goto menu. This has occasionally
been annoying me for a long time but I never bothered investigating.
Fix this by switching to the *make* buffer. The potential downside
is if make-next-error is run from the toolsclient, where we no longer
jump to the error but that's fine because we can use <ret>.
We can maybe improve this later by extending the logic, see
https://github.com/mawww/kakoune/pull/3656#pullrequestreview-472052285
We often use the pattern «map global normal ": foo"». The space
after the colon is unnecessary since execution of the mapping won't
add to history anyway, since 217dd6a1d (Disable history when executing
maps, 2015-11-10).
With the parent commit, the space is no longer necessary for user
mappings, so there is no reason to continue the cargo-cult.
Remove the space from mappings to set a good example.
If I use "man dirname" and select "basename"
SEE ALSO
basename(1), readlink(1)
^------^
then pressing <ret> to trigger man-jump selects everything from "ALSO"
until "basename(1)" Obviously that's not the name of a man page,
so it fails. When I select only "asename" it works.
The bad selection happens because we use a combination of <a-?> and ?
to extend the selection to a full link. This is more complicated than
it needs to be; let's just select the surrounding WORD. This works
fine because man page links never start mid-word, and trailing
characters are ignored anyway.
`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
Commit 85b78dda (src: Select the data inserted by `!` and `<a-!>`,
merged on 2021-03-06) broke autorestore by making it delete the
restored content. I've been using it for 6 months but never noticed
since I didn't use autorestore
Reproducer:
HOME=$PWD kak -s foo README.asciidoc -e 'exec iUNSAVED-CONTENT'
# In another terminal:
ps aux | awk '/kak -s foo/ {print $2; exit}' | xargs kill -HUP
HOME=$PWD kak -s foo README.asciidoc
Delete the trailing newline instead of the restored content.
While at it, remove some <space> commands from execute-keys, to make
it work on the breaking-cleanups branch which swaps <space> and ",".
Closes#4335
There is a bug that causes `:git show-diff` to fail when using an external diff, for example difftastic.
This change ensures that we don't use an external diff tool when diffing the current buffer.
Commit 5b1f9255 (rc: Use the standard `fail` command to report errors,
2019-11-14) replaced uses of "echo -markup {Error}" with "fail".
This made format-buffer do
echo "eval -client $kak_client %{ fail }" | kak -p $kak_session
Unfortunately "fail" fails in the client spawned by "kak -p" and not
in $kak_client where the user would see the message. Correct this.
While at it, clarify the error message, so users immediately know
that the number is the exit code.
Fixes#3254
*.ini files traditionally use ; but for example the "foot" terminal's
foot.ini uses #. Add a hack to treat ini files as "conf" filetype
if they contain a #-comment (very slim chance of false positives).
This requires to explicitly set comment_line to the default #,
because we set the "ini" filetype earlier.
The wrapper for "git blame" creates flags for each line of the buffer.
It parses the output from git and would send a flag (or a series of
flags) each time the commit to blame for a line differs from the
previous one. For files that were touched by a large number of commits,
this results in a high number of kakoune processes being launched, and
may take some time. This is visible in the session through the flags for
the different commits appearing on the lines one by one, possibly during
several seconds.
To speed up the process, batch flags before passing them to the kak
session. One solution could be to send all flags at once, but this might
delay the appearance of commit info for too long if "git blame" really
takes a long time. The alternative solution retained for this commit
consists in grouping as many flags as we can during one second
(roughly), to pass them to kakoune, and then to move on to the next
flags. This way, a new batch of commit information flags appears every
second or so in the client, until all information is added. This should
be much faster than lauching a kakoune process for each commit
reported by "git blame": tests have shown that blaming a large file in
the Linux repository goes 4.5 times faster when batching flags.
