The configure script no longer recognizes "CONFIG_UTF_8=yes" lines
in custom features.conf files. They will have to be changed to
"CONFIG_UTF8=yes". This incompatibility was deemed acceptable
because no released version of ELinks supports CONFIG_UTF_8.
The --enable-utf-8 option was not renamed.
Suggested by Miciah on #elinks.
What was renamed:
add_utf_8 => add_utf8
cp2utf_8 => cp2utf8
encode_utf_8 => encode_utf8
get_translation_table_to_utf_8 => get_translation_table_to_utf8
goto invalid_utf_8_start_byte => goto invalid_utf8_start_byte
goto utf_8 => goto utf8
goto utf_8_select => goto utf8_select
terminal_interlink.utf_8 => terminal_interlink.utf8
utf_8_to_unicode => utf8_to_unicode
What was not renamed:
terminal._template_.utf_8_io option, TERM_OPT_UTF_8_IO
Compatibility with existing elinks.conf files would require an alias.
--enable-utf-8
Because the name of the charset is UTF-8, --enable-utf-8 looks better
than --enable-utf8.
CONFIG_UTF_8
Will be renamed in a later commit.
Unicode/utf_8.cp, table_utf_8, aliases_utf_8
Will be renamed in a later commit.
In the previous version, invalid UTF-8 from a terminal caused
UCS_NO_CHAR (0xFFFFFFFD) to be stored in a term_event_key_T, resulting
in -3 which was then incidentally treated as an unassigned special key.
Now, invalid UTF-8 is instead mapped to UCS_REPLACEMENT_CHARACTER
and treated as a character. The fact that handle_interlink_event
calls term_send_ucs when it receives invalid UTF-8 makes it pretty
clear that this is how it was intended.
src/viewer/text/link.c (not changed in this commit) already referred
to UCS_REPLACEMENT_CHARACTER in a comment even though it was not
previously defined.
This requires compiling cp2u() in even without CONFIG_UTF_8.
I also added an is_kbd_character macro to make try_document_key
more resilient to changes in the definition of term_event_key_T.
to encode it using utf_8_to_unicode. If every unicode_val_T value
could be a result of that function then one must add out param
to the utf_8_to_unicode signaling 'true' UCS_NO_CHAR.
