Problem: :sleep! not hiding the cursor is an arbitrary difference from
Vim without obvious justification, and Vim's behavior isn't
easily achievable in Nvim.
Solution: Make :sleep! hide the cursor while sleeping.

Before calling "attach" a screen object is just a dummy container for
(row, col) values whose purpose is to be sent as part of the "attach"
function call anyway.
Just create the screen in an attached state directly. Keep the complete
(row, col, options) config together. It is still completely valid to
later detach and re-attach as needed, including to another session.
Problem: Cannot see matched text in popup menu
Solution: Introduce 2 new highlighting groups: PmenuMatch and
PmenuMatchSel (glepnir)

These highlight groups are used for the statusline in :terminal windows.
By default they link to StatusLine and StatusLineNC (respectively), so
there is no visual difference unless a colorscheme defines these groups
separately.
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
This is the first installment of a multi-PR series significantly
refactoring how highlights are being specified.
The end goal is to have a base set of 20 ish most common highlights,
and then specific files only need to add more groups to that as needed.
As a complicating factor, we also want to migrate to the new default
color scheme eventually. But by sharing a base set, that future PR
will hopefully be a lot smaller since a lot of tests will be migrated
just simply by updating the base set in place.
As a first step, fix the anti-pattern than Screen defaults to ignoring
highlights. Highlights are integral part of the screen state, not
something "extra" which we only test "sometimes". For now, we still
allow opt-out via the intentionally ugly
screen._default_attr_ids = nil
The end goal is to get rid of all of these eventually (which will be
easier as part of the color scheme migration)
Problem: Some core syntax highlight groups are cleared with intention to
always be shown without additional highlighting. This doesn't always
work as intended, especially with fallback mechanism of @-groups.
Example: `Statement`/`Keyword` group shown in help code blocks
(`@markup.raw`) is shown as bold (from `Statement`) cyan (from
`@markup.raw`) instead of bold grey.
Solution: Explicitly use normal grey foreground in syntax groups where
it was previously implicitly assumed.
Problem: Updating default color scheme produced some feedback.
Solution: Address the feedback.
Outline of the changes:
- Colors `Grey1` and `Grey2` are made a little bit more extreme (dark -
darker, light - lighter) to increase overall contrast.
- `gui` colors are treated as base with `cterm` colors falling back to
using 0-15 colors which come from terminal emulator.
- Update highlight group definition to not include attribute definition
if it is intended to staty uncolored.
- Tweak some specific highlight groups.
- Add a list of Neovim specific highlight groups which are now defined
differently in a breaking way.
- Minor tweaks in several other places related to default color scheme.
This is the command invoked repeatedly to make the changes:
:%s/^\(.*\)|\%(\*\(\d\+\)\)\?$\n\1|\%(\*\(\d\+\)\)\?$/\=submatch(1)..'|*'..(max([str2nr(submatch(2)),1])+max([str2nr(submatch(3)),1]))/g
Problem: Default color scheme is suboptimal.
Solution: Start using new color scheme. Introduce new `vim` color scheme
for opt-in backward compatibility.
------
Main design ideas
- Be "Neovim branded".
- Be minimal for 256 colors with a bit more shades for true colors.
- Be accessible through high enough contrast ratios.
- Be suitable for dark and light backgrounds via exchange of dark and
light palettes.
------
Palettes
- Have dark and light variants. Implemented through exporeted
`NvimDark*` and `NvimLight*` hex colors.
- Palettes have 4 shades of grey for UI elements and 6 colors (red,
yellow, green, cyan, blue, magenta).
- Actual values are computed procedurally in Oklch color space based on
a handful of hyperparameters.
- Each color has a 256 colors variant with perceptually closest color.
------
Highlight groups
Use:
- Grey shades for general UI according to their design.
- Bold text for keywords (`Statement` highlight group). This is an
important choice to increase accessibility for people with color
deficiencies, as it doesn't rely on actual color.
- Green for strings, `DiffAdd` (as background), `DiagnosticOk`, and some
minor text UI elements.
- Cyan as main syntax color, i.e. for function usage (`Function`
highlight group), `DiffText`, `DiagnosticInfo`, and some minor text UI
elements.
- Red to generally mean high user attention, i.e. errors; in particular
for `ErrorMsg`, `DiffDelete`, `DiagnosticError`.
- Yellow very sparingly only with true colors to mean mild user
attention, i.e. warnings. That is, `DiagnosticWarn` and `WarningMsg`.
- Blue very sparingly only with true colors as `DiagnosticHint` and some
additional important syntax group (like `Identifier`).
- Magenta very carefully (if at all).
------
Notes
- To make tests work without relatively larege updates, each one is
prepended with an equivalent of the call `:colorscheme vim`.
Plus some tests which spawn new Neovim instances also now use 'vim'
color scheme.
In some cases tests are updated to fit new default color scheme.
Problem: Highlight for popupmenu kind and extra cannot be set.
Solution: Add PmenuKind, PmenuKindSel, PmenuExtra and PmenuExtraSel
highlight groups and use them. (Gianmaria Bajo, closesvim/vim#12114)

Ref: #9342
Adds the option to have a single global statusline for the current window at the bottom of the screen instead of a statusline at the bottom of every window. Enabled by setting `laststatus = 3`.
Due to the fact that statuslines at the bottom of windows are removed when global statusline is enabled, horizontal separators are used instead to separate horizontal splits. The horizontal separator character is configurable through the`horiz` item in `'fillchars'`. Separator connector characters are also used to connect the horizontal and vertical separators together, which are also configurable through the `horizup`, `horizdown`, `vertleft`, `vertright` and `verthoriz` items in `fillchars`.
The window separators are highlighted using the `WinSeparator` highlight group, which supersedes `VertSplit` and is linked to `VertSplit` by default in order to maintain backwards compatibility.
- TUI: Fix a case where the cursor was not displayed after hiding the
cursor and then setting it to be displayed again.
- Change to reset everything before setting guicursor.
fixes#12800close#12811
Steps to reproduce:
nvim -u NORC
:set termguicolors
:hi nCursor guifg=red guibg=red
:hi iCursor guifg=green guibg=green
:hi cCursor guifg=blue guibg=blue
:set guicursor=n:block-nCursor,i:hor25-iCursor,c:ver25-cCursor
:set guicursor-=c:ver25-cCursor
Actual behaviour: Cursor is a blue vertical.
Expected behaviour: Cursor should be the default color block.
It is perfectly fine and expected to detach from the screen just by
the UI disconnecting from nvim or exiting nvim. Just keep detach() in
screen_basic_spec, to get some coverage of the detach method itself.
This avoids hang on failure in many situations (though one could argue
that detach() should be "fast", or at least "as fast as resize",
which works in press-return already).
Never use detach() just to change the size of the screen, try_resize()
method exists for that specifically.
- Use this to properly test cursor shape events.
- tests: update screen_basic_spec to use `screen:expect` short form.
Clearer than using `screen:wait` directy.
