I created the workspace in order to be able to quickly search within
the textual library as easily as my own code, but now that I'm using
a virtual environment, I can search within all my dependencies easily,
and they're lower priority, being in a subfolder, which is what I want.
It was annoying when typing "README" and the top result being
"richreadme.md" from textual. So this is a much improved situation!
This is a first draft (or first 13 versions) of an ANSI art rendition of
MS Paint's transparent/opaque option selector used for the Select and
Text tools.
A somewhat silly smattering of notes:
- Emoji representation: 🛢️🔴🧊 or 🛢️🔴🟩
- More symbols considered (and some used):
⛀⛁⛃🛢️⬬
▰𝄰ᐟ⸍⸝🧊
╭╮🔴⏺◖◗
╰╯
- The red circle seems really unreliable so I don't think I can use it.
- Overlapping the red circle/sphere object is hard to represent!
- I managed to get something fairly legible in Ubuntu's terminal,
not so much in VS Code. VS Code is harder; I might've modified some
settings, I don't know, but it doesn't handle semigraphics as well,
at least not on my computer. But...
- At least if you've used MS Paint before, you can recognize the general
color/shape profile of the icons, if not parse out what the icons are
meant to represent if you'd never looked closely at them before.
- I'm not sure if v12 or v13 is better. I moved the right border to the
right a bit by making it Braille, but should the corners extend
further right then (with two dots), or mirror the left border by using
a single dot Braille character?
- UnicodeDecodeError was caught in a more general error handler;
now it's allowed to reach the more specific handler.
- UnidentifiedImageError and FormatReadNotSupported were missing return;
now it's not caught there so it doesn't need to, as the exception will
interrupt the control flow.
They usually correspond very closely, like .png -> PNG, but are
are more distinct for some formats, like .jp2 -> JPEG2000.
- Handle formats like JPEG2000 that differ in name from the extension.
- Bring my own file ext handling in line with PIL: use dotted lowercase.
- Raise an exception when a file format is detected but not supporting
for reading or for writing, depending on the attempted operation.
I used this regexp to search for multi-line docstrings: """.*(?<!""")\n
Here's a regexp to search for class docstrings: class .*\n\s*"""
in case that's useful later.
