Else, we store an empty but allocated string for each Attribute after a
href was emitted (since it's ended by a non-null empty string), which
makes Line objects very expensive to destroy and to modify.
Reduces `disasm /bin/id` from 414ms to 380ms (min-of-5). There's
a lot more perf wins to be had with better href handling (most
lines don't have any hrefs, so instead of storing a string per
Attr, maybe we could have a vector of hrefs per line and int offsets
into that in each Attr for example), but this is a simple, obvious,
and effective improvement, so let's start with this.
This makes Terminal::scroll_up() O(1) instead of O(n) in the
size of the history. (It's still O(n) in the size of visible
lines.)
Reduces time to run `disasm /bin/id` with the default terminal
window size from 530ms to 409ms (min-of-5) on my system.
This patch adds GUI::FocusEvent which has a GUI::FocusSource.
The focus source is one of three things:
- Programmatic
- Mouse
- Keyboard
This allows receivers of focus events to implement different behaviors
depending on how they receive/lose focus.
During app teardown, the Application object may be destroyed before
something else, and so having Application::the() return a reference was
obscuring the truth about its lifetime.
This patch makes the API more honest by returning a pointer. While
this makes call sites look a bit more sketchy, do note that the global
Application pointer only becomes null during app teardown.
Get rid of the weird old signature:
- int StringType::to_int(bool& ok) const
And replace it with sensible new signature:
- Optional<int> StringType::to_int() const
You can now request an update of the terminal's window progress by
sending this escape sequence:
<esc>]9;<value>;<max_value>;<escape><backslash>
I'm sure we can find many interesting uses for this! :^)
And move canonicalized_path() to a static method on LexicalPath.
This is to make it clear that FileSystemPath/canonicalized_path() only
perform *lexical* canonicalization.
To conserve memory, we now use byte storage for terminal lines until we
encounter a non-ASCII codepoint. At that point, we transparently switch
to UTF-32 storage for that one line.
Instead of relying on the GUI code to handle UTF-8, we now process
and parse the incoming data into 32-bit codepoints ourselves.
This means that you can now show emojis in the terminal and they will
only take up one character cell each. :^)
You can now drag a hyperlink as a text/uri-list. This allows you to
drag a file from "ls" output and drop it on a FileManager to copy
the file there. Truly futuristic stuff!
The buffer positions referred to by a VT::Position now include history
scrollback, meaning that a VT::Position with row=0 is at the start of
the history.
The active terminal buffer keeps moving in VT::Position coordinates
whenever we scroll. This allows selection to follow history. It also
allows us to click hyperlinks in history.
Fixes#957.
It felt too rushed to open links when simply mousedown'ing on them.
Improve this by implementing basic "click" semantics instead.
This patch also introduces the ability to prevent link opening if you
want to force selection instead. Hold shift and we will not open links.
