Problem: Shell commands in the GUI use a dumb terminal.
Solution: Add the "!" flag to 'guioptions' to execute system commands in a
special terminal window. Only for Unix now.
Problem: On Mac 'maxmemtot' is set to a weird value.
Solution: For Mac use total memory and subtract system memory. For other
systems accept both a 32 bit and 64 bit result. (Ozaki Kiichi,
closes#2646)
Problem: Duplicated code for getting a typed character. CursorHold is
called too often in the GUI. (lilydjwg)
Solution: Refactor code to move code up from mch_inchar(). Don't fire
CursorHold if feedkeys() was used. (closes#2451)
Problem: balloon_show() only works in terminal when compiled with the GUI.
Solution: Add FEAT_BEVAL_GUI and refactor to move common code out of the GUI
specific file.
Problem: Cannot use 'balloonexpr' in a terminal.
Solution: Add 'balloonevalterm' and add code to handle mouse movements in a
terminal. Initial implementation for Unix with GUI.
Problem: File permissions may end up wrong when writing.
Solution: Use fchmod() instead of chmod() when possible. Don't truncate
until we know we can change the file.
Problem: Mac features are confusing.
Solution: Make feature names more consistent, add "osxdarwin". Rename
feature flags, cleanup Mac code. (Kazunobu Kuriyama, closes#2178)
Problem: ":term NONE" does not work on MS-Windows.
Solution: Make it work. Split "pty" into "pty_in" and "pty_out". (Yasuhiro
Matsumoto, closes#2058, closes#2045)
Problem: Detecting background color does not work in screen, even when it
is working like an xterm.
Solution: Make "screen.xterm" use termcap entries like an xterm. (Lubomir
Rintel, closes#2048) When termresponse version is huge also
recognize as not being an xterm.
Problem: Cannot send lines to a terminal job.
Solution: Make [range]terminal send selected lines to the job.
Use ++rows and ++cols for the terminal size.
Problem: Cannot specify directory or environment for a job.
Solution: Add the "cwd" and "env" arguments to job options. (Yasuhiro
Matsumoto, closes#1160)
Problem: No redraw after terminal was closed.
Solution: Set typebuf_was_filled. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closes#1925, closes
#1924) Add function to check for messages even when input is
available.
Problem: Cannot get the name of the pty of a job.
Solution: Add the "tty" entry to the job info. (Ozaki Kiichi, closes#1920)
Add the term_gettty() function.
Problem: A job running in a terminal window cannot easily communicate with
the Vim it is running in.
Solution: Pass v:servername in an environment variable. (closes#1908)
Problem: A job running in a terminal does not get notified of changes in
the terminal size.
Solution: Use ioctl() and SIGWINCH to report the terminal size.
Problem: When running Vim in a terminal window it does not detect the right
number of colors available.
Solution: Detect the version string that libvterm returns. Pass the number
of colors in $COLORS.
Problem: Terminal resizing doesn't work well.
Solution: Resize the terminal to the Vim window and the other way around.
Avoid mapping typed keys. Set the environment properly.
Problem: Setting v:progpath is not quite right.
Solution: On MS-Windows add the extension. On Unix use the full path for a
relative directory. (partly by James McCoy, closes#1531)
Problem: Warning for an unused parameter when the libcall feature is
disabled. Warning for a function type cast when compiling with
-pedantic.
Solution: Add UNUSED. Use a different type cast. (Damien Molinier)
