It backward-deletes a word like Ctrl-W, but it has a slightly
different definition of what a word is. For example, with the
caret behind `gcc -fsanitize=address`, Ctrl-W would delete
'-fsanitize=address' but Alt-backspace would only delete 'address'.
All these shortcuts treat consecutive alnums as a word, not consecutive
non-spaces.
For example, `alias KILL='kill -9'` can now be written by typing it
out lowercase, then hitting ctrl-a alt-f alt-u.
Ctrl-W still treats a word as a sequence of non-spaces. Alt-backspace
in a future patch will add the ability to backward-delete a word
that's a sequence of alnums.
This adds Alt-f to go forward by a word, and Alt-b to go backward
by a word (like ctrl-arrow-left / ctrl-arrow-right already do).
Behind the scenes, alt-key is implemented by sending <esc> followed
by that key, and typing <esc> f/b for moving by a word hence works
too (in all other shells too, not just in Serenity's).
While here, rename some InputState enum values to make the slightly
expanded use of <esc> clearer, and expand a few comments.
Also move the existing backspace lambda out of the loop.
The do_delete() extraction fixes a minor bug where
InputState::ExpectTerminator wasn't entered if delete was pressed at the
very end of a line. Now that this is fixed, there's no more
"LibLine: Unhandled final: 7e (~)" when hitting delete at the end of the
line.
Get rid of the weird old signature:
- int StringType::to_int(bool& ok) const
And replace it with sensible new signature:
- Optional<int> StringType::to_int() const
This commit makes LibLine handle interrupts (as reported via
interrupted() and resized()) again.
There is a little catch with the shell:
```
$ ls |
pipe> <C-c> (prompt stays here until a key is pressed)
```
We just look at $TERM and refuse to emit any escape sequences if it
doesn't start with "xterm".
This could be made much better, at detecting, and at not caling
getline().
This fixes a bunch of FIXME's in LibLine.
Also handles the case where read() would read zero bytes in vt_dsr() and
effectively block forever by erroring out.
Fixes#2370
This commit adds back suggestion pagination, and makes it 10x better.
Also adds a "< page m of n >" indicator at the bottom if there are more
suggestions than would fit in a page.
It properly handles cycling forwards and backwards :^)
To achieve this, the API was tweaked a bit to allow for easier tracking
of completions.
This API change is non-disruptive to any application that does not use
anchored styles.
This commit also adds the concept of "anchored" styles, which are
applied to a specific part of the line, and are tracked to always stay
applied to that specific part.
Inserting text in the middle of an anchored style extends it, and
removing the styled substring causes the style to be removed as well.
LibLine should ultimately not care about what a "token" means in the
context of its user, so force the user to split the buffer itself.
This also allows the users to pick up contextual clues as well, since
they have to lex the line themselves.
This commit pacthes Shell and the JS repl to better handle completions,
so certain wrong behaviours are now corrected as well:
- JS repl can now complete "Object . getOw<tab>"
- Shell can now complete "echo | ca<tab>" and paths inside strings
Previously, we would concatenate all the commands together:
```
> sleep 5
echo well
echo hello
echo friends
> echo wellecho helloecho friends
```
Also renames some variables to be more descriptive.
