Previously, ELinks used to silently discard the Alt modifier from
Alt-ö keystrokes when UTF-8 I/O was enabled. Now, separate actions
can be bound to ö and Alt-ö.
However, if CONFIG_UTF_8 is defined, then actions cannot be bound to
non-ASCII characters, regardless of modifiers. This is because the
code that handles names of keystrokes assumes a character can only be
a single byte. This commit does not change that.
Form fields and BFU text-input widgets then convert from UCS-4 to UTF-8.
If not all UTF-8 bytes fit, they don't insert anything. Thus it is no
longer possible to get invalid UTF-8 by hitting the length limit.
It is unclear to me which charset is supposed to be used for strings
in internal buffers. I made BFU insert UTF-8 whenever CONFIG_UTF_8,
but form fields use the charset of the terminal; that may have to be
changed.
As a side effect, this change should solve bug 782, because
term_send_ucs no longer encodes in UTF-8 if CONFIG_UTF_8 is defined.
I think the UTF-8 and codepage encoding calls I added are safe, too.
A similar bug may still surface somewhere else, but 782 could be
closed for now.
This change also lays the foundation for binding actions to non-ASCII
keys, but the keystroke name parser doesn't yet support that.
The CONFIG_UTF_8 mode does not currently support non-ASCII characters
in hot keys, either.
There is no need to check whether ev->ev == EVENT_KBD;
if decode_terminal_escape_sequence called
decode_terminal_mouse_escape_sequence, then the former neither modified
kbd.key nor passed &kbd to the latter, so kbd.key remains KBD_UNDEF.
If ev->ev was not checked, then it should not be trusted either.
So reinitialize the whole *ev if a keyboard event was indeed found.
For instance, if Ctrl-F1 were pressed and src/terminal/kbd.c supported it,
then toupper(KBD_F1) would be called, resulting in undefined behaviour.
src/terminal/kbd.c does not support such combinations yet, but it is
safest to fix the bug already.
Also list the capnames with which the escape sequences could be
read from Terminfo, and the ECMA-48 interpretations of the bytes
(parenthesized if they seem unrelated to the keys). This is in
preparation for fixing bug 96.
decode_terminal_escape_sequence() used to handle both, but
there is now a separate decode_terminal_application_key()
for ESC O. I have not yet edited decode_terminal_escape_sequence();
there may be dead code in it.
If there is e.g. ESC [ in the input buffer, combine that to Alt-[.
Check the first character too; don't blindly assume it is ESC, as
it can be NUL as well. Note this means you can no longer activate
the main menu by pressing Ctrl-@ (or Ctrl-Space on some terminals).
Otherwise, the timeout could cause ELinks to resume reading from
the terminal device while another process is still using it.
This actually happened in a test.
On entry to some functions that could resume reading from the device,
assert that the terminal has not been blocked.
src/terminal/tab.c (get_tab_by_number): Assert that the returned
struct window * actually points to a struct window.
src/terminal/tab.c (move_current_tab): Keep tabs contiguous in the
stack of windows. Obey "ui.tabs.wraparound".
src/terminal/terminal.h (struct terminal): Documented that tabs can
move in the stack.
src/terminal/window.c (assert_window_stacking): Check that the main
menu isn't between tabs.
This fixes the bug that tabs opened with -remote used to hide existing
dialogs, which then became unusable until the new tabs were closed.
src/terminal/tab.c (init_tab): Put the new tab immediately above
existing ones, or if it's the first one, then at the bottom of the stack.
Added assertions.
src/terminal/terminal.h (struct terminal): Redocumented the stacking
order of windows.
src/terminal/window.c [CONFIG_DEBUG] (assert_window_stacking): New function.
src/terminal/window.h (assert_window_stacking): New function or no-op macro.
The two copies of delayed_open in src/ecmascript/spidermonkey/window.c
and in src/ecmascript/see/window.c are identical, so move them
to src/terminal/tab.c and eliminate the duplication.
This changes the init target to be idempotent: most importantly it will now
never overwrite a Makefile if it exists. Additionally 'make init' will
generate the .vimrc files. Yay, no more stupid 'added fairies' commits! ;)
the same accelerator key to multiple buttons in a dialog box or
to multiple items in a menu. ELinks already has some support for
this but it requires the translator to run ELinks and manually
scan through all menus and dialogs. The attached changes make it
possible to quickly detect and list any conflicts, including ones
that can only occur on operating systems or configurations that
the translator is not currently using.
The changes have no immediate effect on the elinks executable or
the MO files. PO files become larger, however.
The scheme works like this:
- Like before, accelerator keys in translatable strings are
tagged with the tilde (~) character.
- Whenever a C source file defines an accelerator key, it must
assign one or more named "contexts" to it. The translations in
the PO files inherit these contexts. If multiple strings use
the same accelerator (case insensitive) in the same context,
that's a conflict and can be detected automatically.
- The contexts are defined with "gettext_accelerator_context"
comments in source files. These comments delimit regions where
all translatable strings containing tildes are given the same
contexts. There must be one special comment at the top of the
region; it lists the contexts assigned to that region. The
region automatically ends at the end of the function (found
with regexp /^\}/), but it can also be closed explicitly with
another special comment. The comments are formatted like this:
/* [gettext_accelerator_context(foo, bar, baz)]
begins a region that uses the contexts "foo", "bar", and "baz".
The comma is the delimiter; whitespace is optional.
[gettext_accelerator_context()]
ends the region. */
The scripts don't currently check whether this syntax occurs
inside or outside comments.
- The names of contexts consist of C identifiers delimited with
periods. I typically used the name of a function that sets
up a dialog, or the name of an array where the items of a
menu are listed. There is a special feature for static
functions: if the name begins with a period, then the period
will be replaced with the name of the source file and a colon.
- If a menu is programmatically generated from multiple parts,
of which some are never used together, so that it is safe to
use the same accelerators in them, then it is necessary to
define multiple contexts for the same menu. link_menu() in
src/viewer/text/link.c is the most complex example of this.
- During make update-po:
- A Perl script (po/gather-accelerator-contexts.pl) reads
po/elinks.pot, scans the source files listed in it for
"gettext_accelerator_context" comments, and rewrites
po/elinks.pot with "accelerator_context" comments that
indicate the contexts of each msgid: the union of all
contexts of all of its uses in the source files. It also
removes any "gettext_accelerator_context" comments that
xgettext --add-comments has copied to elinks.pot.
- If po/gather-accelerator-contexts.pl does not find any
contexts for some use of an msgid that seems to contain an
accelerator (because it contains a tilde), it warns. If the
tilde refers to e.g. "~/.elinks" and does not actually mark
an accelerator, the warning can be silenced by specifying the
special context "IGNORE", which the script otherwise ignores.
- msgmerge copies the "accelerator_context" comments from
po/elinks.pot to po/*.po. Translators do not edit those
comments.
- During make check-po:
- Another Perl script (po/check-accelerator-contexts.pl) reads
po/*.po and keeps track of which accelerators have been bound
in each context. It warns about any conflicts it finds.
This script does not access the C source files; thus it does
not matter if the line numbers in "#:" lines are out of date.
This implementation is not perfect and I am not proposing to
add it to the main source tree at this time. Specifically:
- It introduces compile-time dependencies on Perl and Locale::PO.
There should be a configure-time or compile-time check so that
the new features are skipped if the prerequisites are missing.
- When the scripts include msgstr strings in warnings, they
should transcode them from the charset of the PO file to the
one specified by the user's locale.
- It is not adequately documented (well, except perhaps here).
- po/check-accelerator-contexts.pl reports the same conflict
multiple times if it occurs in multiple contexts.
- The warning messages should include line numbers, so that users
of Emacs could conveniently edit the conflicting part of the PO
file. This is not feasible with the current version of
Locale::PO.
- Locale::PO does not understand #~ lines and spews warnings
about them. There is an ugly hack to hide these warnings.
- Jonas Fonseca suggested the script could propose accelerators
that are still available. This has not been implemented.
There are three files attached:
- po/gather-accelerator-contexts.pl: Augments elinks.pot with
context information.
- po/check-accelerator-contexts.pl: Checks conflicts.
- accelerator-contexts.diff: Makes po/Makefile run the scripts,
and adds special comments to source files.
Convert remaining conditional file building to use
OBJS-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o
one problem with reverse meaining (in util/) fixed with local 'hack'.
Cleanup and remove stuff which is now default targets.
Ditch the building of an archive (.a) in favour of linking all objects in a
directory into a lib.o file. This makes it easy to link in subdirectories
and more importantly keeps the build logic in the local subdirectories.
Note: after updating you will have to rm **/*.a if you do not make clean
before updating.
