John Zaitseff 135842b87d Bug fix for non-colour mode
If the background has A_REVERSE, then A_NORMAL will have no effect.  For
that reason, specify A_NORMAL as the default background after creating a
new window.

Function: mkchstr - Prepare a string for printing to screen
Parameters: chbuf - Pointer to chtype buffer in which to store string
chbufsize - Number of chtype elements in chbuf
attr_norm - Normal character rendition to use
attr_alt1 - First alternate character rendition to use
attr_alt2 - Second alternate character rendition to use
maxlines - Maximum number of screen lines to use
maxwidth - Maximum width of each line, in chars
widthbuf - Pointer to buffer to store widths of each line
widthbufsize - Number of int elements in widthbuf
format - Format string as described below
... - Arguments for the format string
Returns: int - Number of lines actually used
This function converts the format string and following arguments into
chbuf, a chtype buffer that can be used for calls to leftch(), centerch()
and rightch(). At most maxlines lines are used, each with a maximum
width of maxwidth. The actual widths of each resulting line are stored
in widthbuf (which must not be NULL). If maxlines is greater than 1,
lines are wrapped as needed.
The format string is similar to but more limited than printf(). In
particular, only the following conversion specifiers are understood:
%% - Print the ASCII percent sign (ASCII code U+0025)
%c - Insert the next parameter as a character (type char)
%s - Insert the next parameter as a string (type char *)
%d - Insert the next parameter as an integer (type int)
%'d - As above, using the locale's thousands group separator
%ld - Insert the next parameter as a long int
%'ld - As above, using the locale's thousands group separator
%f - Insert the next parameter as a floating point number (double)
%.mf - As above, with precision "m" (a positive integer > 0)
%'.mf - As above, using the locale's thousands group separator
%N - Insert the next parameter as a double, using the locale's
national currency format (extension to printf())
%!N - As above, using the locale's national currency format without
the actual currency symbol (extension to printf())
Instead of using "%" to convert the next parameter, "%m$" can be used
to indicate fixed parameter m (where m is an integer from 1 to 8). For
example, "%4$s" inserts the fourth parameter after "format" as a string
into chbuf. As with printf(), using "%m$" together with ordinary "%"
forms is undefined. If "%m$" is used, no parameter m can be skipped.
Note that no other flag, field width, precision or length modifier
characters are recognised: if needed, these should be formatted FIRST
with snprintf(), then inserted using %s as appropriate.
In addition to the conversion specifiers, the following character
rendition flags are understood, where the "^" character is a literal
ASCII circumflex accent:
^^ - Print the circumflex accent (ASCII code U+005E)
^{ - Switch to using attr_alt1 character rendition (alternate mode 1)
^} - Switch to using attr_norm character rendition
^[ - Switch to using attr_alt2 character rendition (alternate mode 2)
^] - Switch to using attr_norm character rendition
Characters other than these are inserted as literals, except that '\n'
will force the start of a new line. By default, attr_norm is used as
the character rendition (attributes).
Please note that this function does NOT handle multibyte characters
correctly: widths may be incorrect (byte count, not actual width) and
multibyte characters may be split over two lines.
This function returns the actual number of lines used (from 0 to
maxlines). If an error is detected, the application terminates.

Function: gettxline - Read a line from the keyboard (low-level)
Parameters: win - Window to use (should be curwin)
buf - Pointer to preallocated buffer

modified - Pointer to modified status (result)
multifield - Allow <TAB>, etc, to exit this function
emptyval - String used if input line is empty
defaultval - String used if default key is pressed
allowed - Characters allowed in the input line
stripspc - True to strip leading/trailing spaces
y, x - Start of the input field (line, column)
width - Width of the input field
attr - Character rendition to use for input field
Returns: int - Status code: OK, ERR or KEY_ keycode
This low-level function draws an input field width characters long
using attr as the character rendition, then reads a line of input from
the keyboard and places it into the preallocated buffer buf[] of size
bufsize. On entry, buf[] must contain a valid C string; this string is
used as the initial contents of the input field. On exit, buf[]
contains the final string as edited or input by the user. This string
is printed in place of the input field using the original character
rendition (attributes) with A_BOLD added. Many Emacs/Bash-style
keyboard editing shortcuts are understood.
If ENTER, RETURN, ^M or ^J is pressed, OK is returned. In this case,
leading and trailing spaces are stripped if stripspc is true; if an
empty string is entered, the string pointed to by emptyval (if not
NULL) is stored in buf[].
If CANCEL, EXIT, ESC, ^C, ^\ or ^G is pressed, ERR is returned. In
this case, buf[] contains the string as left by the user: emptyval is
NOT used, nor are leading and trailing spaces stripped.
If multifield is true, the UP and DOWN arrow keys, as well as TAB,
Shift-TAB, ^P (Previous) and ^N (Next) return KEY_UP or KEY_DOWN as
appropriate. As with CANCEL etc., emptyval is NOT used, nor are
leading and trailing spaces stripped.
In all of these cases, the boolean variable *modified (if modified is
not NULL) is set to true if the input line was actually modified in any
way (including if the user made any changed, spaces were stripped or if
emptyval was copied into buf[]).
If KEY_DEFAULTVAL1 or KEY_DEFAULTVAL2 is pressed when the input line is
empty, the string pointed to by defaultval (if not NULL) is placed in
the buffer as if typed by the user. Editing is NOT terminated in this
case.
If allowed is not NULL, only characters in that string are allowed to
be entered into the input line. For example, if allowed points to
"0123456789abcdefABCDEF", only those characters would be allowed (in
this instance, allowing the user to type in a hexadecimal number).
Note that the character rendition (attributes) in attr may contain a
printing character. For example, A_BOLD | '_' is a valid rendition
that causes the input field to be a series of "_" characters in bold.
This implementation does not handle multibyte characters correctly:
each part of the multibyte character most likely appears as a separate
keyboard press and is handled as a separate character, causing the
cursor position to be incorrect. In addition, allowed is compared on a
byte-by-byte basis, not character-by-character.

Parameters: win - Window to use (should be curwin)
bufptr - Address of pointer to buffer
modified - Pointer to modified status (result)
multifield - Allow <TAB>, etc, to exit this function
y, x - Start of the input field (line, column)
width - Width of the input field
attr - Character rendition to use for input field
Returns: int - Status code: OK, ERR or KEY_ keycode
This function calls gettxline() to allow the user to enter a string via
the keyboard. On entry, bufptr must be the address of a char * pointer
variable; that pointer (*bufptr) must either be NULL or contain the
address of a buffer previously allocated with gettxstr(). If *bufptr
is NULL, a buffer of BUFSIZE is automatically allocated using malloc();
this buffer is used to store and return the input line.
Apart from bufptr, all parameters are as used for gettxline(). The
gettxline() parameters emptyval and defaultval are passed as "",
allowed is NULL and stripspc is true.

Function: gettxdouble - Read a floating-point number from the keyboard
Parameters: win - Window to use (should be curwin)
result - Pointer to result variable
min - Minimum value allowed (may be -INFINITY)
max - Maximum value allowed (may be INFINITY)
emptyval - Value to use for empty input
defaultval - Value to use for default input
y, x - Start of the input field (line, column)
width - Width of the input field
attr - Character rendition to use for input field
Returns: int - Status code: OK, ERR or KEY_ keycode
This function calls gettxline() to allow the user to type in a valid
floating-point number between min and max (inclusive). If gettxline()
returns OK, the entered number is checked for validity. If it is
valid, it is stored in *result and the function returns OK. If it is
not valid, the user is prompted to reenter the number. Any other
result from gettxline() is passed back to the caller. Note that the
low-level function gettxline() is called with multifield set to false.
This function is locale-aware, although multibyte strings are not
handled correctly. In particular, the default value is formatted using
strfmon() and uses the locale monetary default decimal places
(frac_digits). In addition, the user is allowed to use the locale's
radix character (decimal point) and the thousands separator, as well as
the monetary versions of these.

Function: gettxlong - Read an integer number from the keyboard
Parameters: win - Window to use (should be curwin)
result - Pointer to result variable
min - Minimum value allowed
max - Maximum value allowed
emptyval - Value to use for empty input
defaultval - Value to use for default input
y, x - Start of the input field (line, column)
width - Width of the input field
attr - Character rendition to use for input field
Returns: int - Status code: OK, ERR or KEY_ keycode
This function behaves almost exactly like gettxdouble(), except that
only integer numbers are allowed to be entered.
This function is locale-aware, although multibyte strings are not
handled correctly. In particular, the user is allowed to use the
locale's thousands separator and the monetary thousands separator.

Function: answer_yesno - Wait for a Yes/No answer
Parameters: win - Window to use (should be curwin)
Returns: bool - True if Yes was selected, false if No
This function waits for the user to press either "Y" (for Yes) or "N"
(for No) on the keyboard, then prints the answer using A_BOLD. True is
returned if "Y" was selected, false if "N". Note that the cursor
becomes invisible after calling this function.

Function: wait_for_key - Print a message and wait for any key
Parameters: win - Window to use (should be curwin)
y - Line on which to print message
attr - Character rendition to use for message
Returns: (nothing)
This function displays the message "Press <SPACE> to continue" in the
centre of line y in window win, then waits for any key to be pressed.
The reason the user is not asked "Press any key to continue" is
historical: many, many people used to ask "where is the <ANY> key?" :-)
The current implementation does not handle multibyte characters
correctly: only the first byte of the character is consumed, with
further bytes left in the keyboard queue.
