Freetype has a compile-time feature that, when enabled, rewrites the
font names of PCF fonts to include the foundry and wide status of the
font in order to disambiguate the various versions of fonts all named
"Fixed".
That option is enabled by default in some linux distributions but not
all; it's not enabled in Fedora, for example.
When that feature is enabled it causes problems for the Terminus font as
the PCF version of the fonts are no longer resolvable via the simple
"Terminus" name but via "xos4 Terminus" instead.
wezterm builds its own version of freetype (for consistency and cross
platform support reasons), and is unaware of the choice used by the
distro.
The result of that is that fontconfig may see PCF fonts as having
different font names than how wezterm sees them.
A concrete problem is on such a system, when requesting "xos4 Terminus",
fontconfig will present a match with that name, but when wezterm opens
the font and sees that it has name "Terminus" (because of the difference
in this feature in the freetype libraries in use), wezterm will reject
that match.
This commit enables that option in the freetype library and adds a
wezterm config level option (freetype_pcf_long_family_names) that can be
used to control the underlying pcf font driver configuration.
The upshot of this is that this commit doesn't change any default
behavior, but allows users of those systems to set
`freetype_pcf_long_family_names = true` to turn that behavior on.
My personal opinion on this is that users probably shouldn't use this if
they can avoid it (and PCF fonts in general), and instead install the
OTB version of the Terminus font, which doesn't have this legacy baggage
associated with it!

For fonts like Lucida Console on Windows which do not have a bold
variant, we were not synthesizing bold.
The reason was that the config-level "make bold" logic works by adding
200 to the weight which takes normal -> demibold, but the bold synthesis
logic is enabled only for bold and higher.
This commit changes the threshold for synthesis to demibold or higher.

harfbuzz can return incomplete overlapping runs when it processes
text in unicode NFD. Add another check for the case where we've
accumulated the bytes in the range 0-12 and then harfbuzz returns
another range of 6-12. We coalesce the two together so that we can
pass the full unresolved sequence to the next fallback pass.

This is still a bit of a WIP, but this commit:
* Introduces a new "Modal" concept to the GUI layer. The intent is
that modal intercepts key and mouse events while active, and renders
over the top of the rest of the normal display.
I think there might be a couple of cases where key events skirt
through this, but this is good enough as a first step.
Also, the render is forced into layer 1 which has some funny side
effects: if the modal choses to render transparent, it will poke
a hole in the window because all the rendering happens together:
there aren't distinct layer compositing passes.
* Add a new PaneSelect action that is implemented as a modal.
It uses quickselect style alphabet -> pane label generation and
renders the labels over ~the middle of each pane using an
enlarged version of the window frame font. Typing the label
will activate that pane. Escape will cancel the modal.
More styling and docs will follow in a later commit.

Go directly to the underlying env_logger crate, as pretty_env_logger
hasn't been updated in some time, and I'd like to be able to redirect
the log output to a file more directly, and that feature is in a newer
version of the env logger than pretty_env_logger was pulling in.
Some versions of fontconfig classify some fonts as having charcell
spacing. We need to consider those as monospace as well.

We were using a simple hashmap of name -> parsed file, but for
something like Terminus where there are ~10 files per weight
but for different pixel sizes, we'd end up forgetting files
beyond the first.
This commit tracks the full list in the font db.
related to #1820 in the sense that I needed this to confirm that
we do handle BDFs, but it is not the issue reported there because
that was sourcing fonts via fontconfig on linux.
The gist of the issue is that when setting eg: scale=1.2 to draw
a larger CJK glyph, it is drawn at the same descender level, which
makes it more likely to leave the top of the cell.
This commit adjusts the y position by the difference between the
original and the scaled descender so that is less likely to cause
problems.

The broot icon font has glyphs with horizontal advance set to 0. That
would cause us to consider the glyph to be zero width, so handle that as
a special case. Note that it is legit for certain cells to end up with
a zero advance/width during shaping if they represent combining
characters: this is more common in Arabic scripts.

This commit allows specifying a scaling factor as part of the font
attribute definition. This scaling factor is fed through to the
rasterizer and the shaper to adjust the actual font size that is
loaded.
The intent is to provide manual control for situations where the
fallback font has a different scale to the primary font and renders
either too small or too large.
The concrete example is
https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/1761#issuecomment-1079708207 where
the CJK fallback looks too small.
The scaling factor doesn't influence font metrics so it may also be
desirable to configure line height.
```lua
local wezterm = require 'wezterm'
return {
line_height = 1.2,
font = wezterm.font_with_fallback({
"JetBrains Mono",
{family="Microsoft YaHei", scale=1.5},
}),
}
```
freetype can't handle a wide range of encodings for
font names and can return strings like `?????` when
the family name is only present in the font as a non-unicode encoding,
such as Chinese.
This commit improves our handling of the font name table
and prefers to use results from processing that over the
results returned for eg: font family directly from the
freetype API.

after reading around italic vs. oblique, I think "slant" is a misleading
way to categorize this, as slant implies something about the angle of
the font but really the difference between italic and oblique is purely
stylistic and without a suggested angle.
style more closely matches the CSS name which is well understood by
many, so we go for that.
refs: #1646
There are three slants that are broadly recognized; normal, italic and
oblique. Prior to this commit, we only considered normal or italic.
This is mostly a mechanical change to replace the boolean with the enum,
and rename the field from `italic` to `slant`.
For the sake of backwards compatibility with existing configs, the lua
helpers for working with fonts continue to accept boolean italic values
and rewrite them to the equivalent slant value.
refs: #1646
Resolves a little bit of the awkward duplication of color types
between some of the crates by factoring them a little bit better.
This is prep for allowing specifying alpha for some colors
in the config.
For a sequence like `e U+20d7` the intent is to render the `e` with
a vector arrow over the top.
This is typically implemented by fonts as an `e` followed by the
vector glyph (or vice versa), where either one of those may have
a zero advance so that the two elements are combined.
There were two problems here:
* During shaping we'd see the zero advance and assume that the entry
was useless and skip it
* During rendering, if we didn't think it had any cell width, we'd
not render it
Cursoring through that particular sequence can hide the vector
mark if the cursor is set to the default block cursor due to annoyances
in how the block cursor is rendered (it changes the fg color to match
the bg, but for elements outside where we think the cursor is, this
makes those elements invisible).
refs: https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/1617
This is a more robust approach; we make a separate pass to figure
out information about the (harfbuzz) cluster for a sequence of glyphs,
and then map that sequence back to the original cell sequence, and
from there compute the total cell width for the run, then distribute
the glyphs across the run.
This should yield more sane results for bidi.
Fixup the x-position math; it was still wonky despite the
efforts in 5f2c905db8 and

This allows unicode_version to be respected again when rendering.
The updated emoji-presentation.sh script now highlights this slightly
better by putting `.` characters after the emoji; unicode version 14
emoji presentation will show the `.` in the 3rd column, while earlier
versions will show it in the 2nd column for glyphs that are sensitive
to the version.

This commit is larger than it appears to due fanout from threading
through bidi parameters. The main changes are:
* When clustering cells, add an additional phase to resolve embedding
levels and further sub-divide a cluster based on the resolved bidi
runs; this is where we get the direction for a run and this needs
to be passed through to the shaper.
* When doing bidi, the forced cluster boundary hack that we use to
de-ligature when cursoring through text needs to be disabled,
otherwise the cursor appears to push/rotate the text in that
cluster when moving through it! We'll need to find a different
way to handle shading the cursor that eliminates the original
cursor/ligature/black issue.
* In the shaper, the logic for coalescing unresolved runs for font
fallback assumed LTR and needed to be adjusted to cluster RTL.
That meant also computing a little index of codepoint lengths.
* Added `experimental_bidi` boolean option that defaults to false.
When enabled, it activates the bidi processing phase in clustering
with a strong hint that the paragraph is LTR.
This implementation is incomplete and/or wrong for a number of cases:
* The config option should probably allow specifying the paragraph
direction hint to use by default.
* https://terminal-wg.pages.freedesktop.org/bidi/recommendation/paragraphs.html
recommends that bidi be applied to logical lines, not physical
lines (or really: ranges within physical lines) that we're doing
at the moment
* The paragraph direction hint should be overridden by cell attributes
and other escapes; see 85a6b178cf
and probably others.
However, as of this commit, if you `experimental_bidi=true` then
```
echo This is RTL -> عربي فارسی bidi
```
(that text was sourced from:
https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/538#issuecomment-677017322)
then wezterm will display the text in the same order as the text
renders in Chrome for that github comment.

A user reported an issue where having just Roboto Thin installed
caused the title font to use that one, rather than the desired
Roboto Bold.
This commit adjusts the font matching code to accumulate candidates
from each of the font_dirs, locator and built-in font locations,
and then find the best match.
I'm running down a weird thing where the main font renders weirdly
when the title font is 12 pt vs the main font 10 pt.
I thought there might have been a cache invalidation issue and
realized that we could have an A-B-A style issue with the font_ptr
stuff, so I replaced it with an incrementing id.
That didn't fix the thing I was looking at, but does feel a bit
nicer overall.
The default we use on macOS looks decent. Roboto is a similar
looking font that we can use for the other platforms.
I may make it the same on all three once I've had a chance
to compare it on a mac.
This commit adds a CSS box model inspired element / layout
facility, and replaces the hand implemented fancy tab bar
element render.
This makes the code for fancy tab bar much easier to read
and update.
The right status area now expands to the full height of the
tab bar area, and uses a line height of 2.0, which makes
it line up nicely in the tab bar.
Rather than hardcode a fixed default value in the config crate, define
the default as optional and leave it to the font crate to compute
the value.
This is a step towards allow introducing system dependent GUI related
code to resolve/understand the title font: we can't put that directly
in the config crate.
Previously, we'd set it to 100% if any non-zero channel was present,
but this resulted in stronger/darker outlines that were especially
noticeable when the window background was transparent and over a
bright background.
This commit sets the alpha based on the coverage provided to us
by freetype and looks better with and without a transparent window
background.
