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:
Unlike termopen(), nvim_open_term() PTYs do not carriage-return the
cursor on newline ("\n") input.
nvim --clean
:let chan_id = nvim_open_term(1, {})
:call chansend(chan_id, ["here", "are", "some", "lines"])
Actual behavior:
here
are
some
lines
Expected behaviour:
here
are
some
lines
Solution:
Add `force_crlf` option, and enable it by default.
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
The terminal buffer closes automatically when using `:terminal` and the
command exits without an error. This messes up some tests that expect
the terminal buffer to still be open. We can force the buffer not to
close by passing an argument to `:terminal`. This can be anything, since
the shell-test stub simply prints whatever argument it's given.
Avoid consecutive RPC requests involving :startinsert or :stopinsert,
because consecutive RPC requests may be processed together, before the
:startinsert or :stopinsert takes effect.
Also change some feed_command() to command() to make tests faster.
`nvim_(get|set)_option_value` pick the current buffer / window by default for buffer-local/window-local (but not global-local) options. So specifying `buf = 0` or `win = 0` in opts is unnecessary for those options. This PR removes those to reduce code clutter.
Problem:
Codebase inconsistently binds vim.api onto a or api.
Solution:
Use api everywhere. a as an identifier is too short to have at the
module level.
Extend the capabilities of is_os to detect more platforms such as
freebsd and openbsd. Also remove `iswin()` helper function as it can be
replaced by `is_os("win")`.
This is essentially a convenience wrapper around the `pending()`
function, similar to `skip_fragile()` but more general-purpose.
Also remove `pending_win32` function as it can be replaced by
`skip(iswin())`.
* on_scrollback_option_changed renamed to adjust_scrollback. The
function name did not correspond to what it was doing. It is
called unconditionally in every refresh of the terminal
unrelated if the scrollback option was changed.
* new on_scrollback_option_changed function, which calls
refresh_terminal, which then calls adjust_scrollback
* terminal_check_size is not the appropriate function to call when the
option is changed since it only conditionally adjusts the scrollback.
Use the new on_scrollback_option_changed
fixes#15477fixes#11811
Remove the command('qall!') from mksession_spec.lua because it prevents
helpers.rmdir() from retrying.
Allow extra trailing spaces when matching terminal lines.
refresh_scrollback assumes pending scrollback rows exist only if the
terminal window height decreased (or the screen was full).
However, after accumulating scrollback, it's possible in some cases for
the terminal height to increase before refresh_scrollback is called via
invalidation (especially when the terminal buffer isn't initially
displayed in a window before nvim_open_term), which may crash.
As we'll have enough room for some scrollback rows, just append them to
the top of the buffer until it fills the window, then continue with the
previous logic for any remaining scrollback rows if necessary.
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.
Adapt some tests for OpenBSD:
- scrollback_spec:
- seq(1) is not available on OpenBSD: we'd use jot(1).
- Instead use a (hopefully) portable awk(1) snippet.
- channels_spec
- job_spec
- tui_spec
Previously, ordinary redraws were missing from terminal mode. Instead,
there was an async callback that invoked update_screen() on terminal
data regardless of mode (as if :redraw! was invoked by a timer).
This created some issues:
- async changes to an unrelated ordinary buffer were not always redrawn in
terminal mode
- screen cursor position was not properly updated in terminal mode (partial
fix, will be properly fixed in a follow up PR)
- ad-hoc logic was needed for interaction with special states such as
inccommand or horizontal wildmenu.
Instead redraw terminal mode just like any other state. This disables forced
redraws in cmdline mode, which were inconisent which async changes to
normal buffers (which are not redrawn in cmdline mode).
Makes the 'scrollback' option more consistent (same default for all buffers) and future-proof.
- Default to -1 for all buffers, but treat it as an implementation detail.
- Document range of 1 - 100_000.
- New terminal buffer by default sets scrollback=10_000 if the global default is -1.
- Existing terminal buffer: On entering terminal-mode or on refresh, if the user explicitly did `:set[local] scbk=-1`, the local value goes to 100_000 (max). (This is undocumented on purpose. Users should work with explicit values in the range of 1-100_000.)
Hope this will make people using feed_command less likely: this hides bugs.
Already found at least two:
1. msgpackparse() will show internal error: hash_add() in case of duplicate
keys, though it will still work correctly. Currently silenced.
2. ttimeoutlen was spelled incorrectly, resulting in option not being set when
expected. Test was still functioning somehow though. Currently fixed.
Make the 'scrollback' option work like most other buffer-local options:
- `:set scrollback=x` sets the global and local value
- `:setglobal scrollback=x` sets only the global default
- new terminal buffers inherit the global
Normal buffers are still always -1, and :setlocal there is an error.
