64e306f64b Document command-fifo in changelog 2021-07-07 19:46:47 +10:00
Maxime Coste
3d7fb8ddbc Add support for $kak_command_fifo and $kak_response_fifo
Those fifos are accessible during %sh{...} blocks, the command fifo
executes commands written to it once the write end side is closed
(multiple open/write/close sequences are supported), the response
fifo is a simple helper fifo available to write response back to
the shell process

An example use of this feature is to request some list options
content from without being limited by the environment size:
```
%sh{
    echo "echo -to-file $kak_response_fifo -quoting shell -- %opt{some_list}" > $kak_command_fifo
    eval "set -- $(cat $kak_response_fifo)"
}
```

`$` for environment variables, consistent indentation, etc.

4ae2102cd8 regex.asciidoc: rephrasing, style, consistency
* Polish some grammar in places.
* Correct some capitalization nitpicks.
* Use "newline" rather than "line feed", which tends to be more common
  in Kakoune's documentation thusfar.

I rephrased some sections, as some of them read a little odd.
* Zero width assertions
    * Consistently use "subject's beginning" instead of "subject begin",
      it reads better.
    * Improve the flow of the word boundary descriptions.
* Modifiers
    * Improve phrasing to emphasize the linear nature of their usage and
      remove a double negative.
    * Use `.` instead of "dot", since that aids in searching through the
      page for things talking about the dot character.
* Compatibility
    * Use asciidoc syntax for the link to the ECMA-262 standard.
    * Use better punctuation on the point about escapes.

daa63ba879 [feat] add ui_options: padding_char & padding_fill
In some cases, it may be difficult to easily spot the area out of the buffer
(bad color scheme, small font, superimposed windows).

This patch adds two ncurses ui_options to bypass this problem:
- `ncurses_padding_char`, to configure the padding character,
- `ncurses_padding_fill`, to indicate whether to fill the padding line
  (or to display a single character).

The default config is the legacy one (a single "~").

65587d1eee Auto-insert best completion on space for menu completions
The menu flag signifies that only the completions are valid arguments,
hence it makes sense to auto insert the best one on space.

Because full match is always considered the best match in completion
ranking, this should always have a reasonable behaviour.

This makes it harder to enter a hidden command, but completion can
always be disabled via <c-o> or by quoting in those rare cases.

87f9be6723 rc repl: Normalise REPL commands
It's unclear what the `send-text` alias does at first glance,
so prefixing it with "repl-" both fixes that and helps make it
discoverable via the command prompt's fuzzy matcher.

The `repl` alias also seems too generic a name, the "-new" suffix
should hopefully give a hint that it creates a new window.

14573244d4 expansions.asciidoc: Add an example of file expansion.
Properly speaking, all expansions are of the form "%abc{}" where "abc"
is the expansion type. All expansion types are listed in the documentation, as
they should be. However, when searching through the documentation, a keyword
like "file" is likely to hit a lot of false-positives, so a smart user is likely
to search for the more-unique "%file" instead. Unfortunately, unlike every other
expansion-type, file-expansions did not include an example, so a search for
"%file" resulted in no hits, potentially leading people to believe it was
undocumented.

Now there's an example, so people searching for "%file" will find what they're
looking for.

f75d49e9ef Do not include non-primitive option value in *SetOption hook filter
Only include the value for int/str/bool options, for the rest just
write '<option name>=...'.

This should reduce the cost of some patterns such as repeatedly adding
a value inside a list option.

It seems very unlikely that the actual value would be matched by
a hook regex string for non primitive types.

Similarly to the <semicolon> key, make it easier to write
`:execute-keys` commands by replacing <percent> with `%`.

Highlighters can keep escaping the sign when regular expressions are
not quoted, but built-in scripts that use `%` as an editing primitive
have been modified to use the named key, for clarity.

-verbatim will disable argument parsing in evaluate-commands, making
it possible to forward a single command to a different context without
triggering a reparsing of the arguments.

f88cf7ffb4 rc, doc: set extra_word_chars on buffer, not window
For clojure.kak and haskell.kak, set extra_word_chars on the buffer
and not the window, so that the buffer's word db is updated correctly
for word completion.

Document this.

Also, minor refactor of clojure.kak.

4e24ba86cc Change faces alias to be a base that can be modified
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>.
