We were panicking when rendering the || ligature, which is narrower
than we were expecting. There was also a weird looking assert
that was triggering if we got path the math overflow.
This is most noticable with a cursive italic font. When we
were dividing the glyph into cell slices, we could leave off
a 2 pixel wide strip from the last of the sequence and this
looked nasty.
This diff also adjusts come calculations to use the width and
height from the current TextStyle. Whether this is more or
less correct remains to be seen :-p
This enables selecting an italic font when the cell is italic,
but has more power beyond just that simple property.
This runs a little hot on the CPU so there's probably some caching and
tweaking that can be done to make the evaluation a bit cheaper.
We weren't quite right with handling the cursor around double-width
characters. We're now a bit more robust at this because we're
clustering and taking pains to consider the printable width of the
cell as well as the width of the shaped (eg: with contextual ligatures)
glyph.
There may still be issues with contextual ligatures of length 3,
but I haven't managed to nail down exactly the issue yet.
This unlocks pressing `b` in `less` and `more` to scroll backwards.
To facilitate this I had to do a better job at scrolling up and down,
so beef up the code to enable that. Scroll regions still need some
work; test case for that is running vim and then opening help.
Also: fixup the y position when rending rows; it was off by one row.
We now keep track of the dirty status on a per-line basis
and use that status to realize when we need to repaint a portion
of the screen. This reduces the compute cost of redrawing
quite significantly; we're no longer on `top` when we're running
`top`!
Using the SHM extension of the X server saves us from sending ~1MB of
bitmap data to the server on many screen update operations for a
modestly sized terminal window.
SHM may not be available in some situations so we need to keep a
fallback that basically works. This is done via a helper enum
in xwin.rs.
I've removed the unused Pixmap class; the pixmap concept makes the
most sense for us only when SHM is available.
I thought it would be nice to use the default xterm palette, but
I really hate the contrast of its default blue on black, so switch
to the palette from my xterm config.
