Wez Furlong 8002a17242 term: default to cluster storage
The previous commit added the option to convert the storage to
the cluster format.  That saves memory as rows are moved to scrollback,
but makes scrolling back more expensive due to that conversion.

This commit adds a fast(ish) path for the common case of simply
appending text to a new line before it gets scrolled: the default
format for lines in the screen is now the cluster format and,
provided that the cursor moves from left to right as text is
emitted, can simply append to the cluster storage in-place
and avoids a conversion when the line is moved to scrollback.

This improves the throughput of `time cat enwiki8.wiki` so
that the runtime is typically around 11-12s (compared to 9-10s
before introducing cluster storage).  However, this is often
a deal of variance in the measured time and I believe that
that is due to the renderer triggering conversions back to
the vec storage and introducing slowdowns from the render side.

That's what I'll investigate next.

Terminal Wizardry

This is a rust crate that provides a number of support functions for applications interested in either displaying data to a terminal or in building a terminal emulator.

It is currently in active development and subject to fairly wild sweeping changes.

Included functionality:

  • Surface models a terminal display and its component Cells
  • Terminal attributes are aware of modern features such as True Color, Hyperlinks and will also support sixel and iterm style terminal graphics display.
  • Surfaces include a log of Changes and an API for consuming and applying deltas. This is a powerful building block for synchronizing screen instances.
  • Escape sequence parser decodes inscrutable escape sequences and gives them semantic meaning, making the code that uses them clearer. The decoded escapes can be re-encoded, allowing applications to start with the semantic meaning and emit the appropriate escape sequence without embedding obscure binary bytes.
  • Capabilities allows probing for terminal capabilities that may not be included in the system terminfo database, and overriding them in an embedding application.
  • Terminal trait provides an abstraction over unix style ttys and Windows style console APIs. Changes from Surface can be rendered to Terminals. Terminals allow decoding mouse and keyboard inputs in both blocking or non-blocking mode.
  • Widget trait allows composition of UI elements at a higher level.
  • LineEditor implements shell-like line editing functionality.

Windows Support

Termwiz understands how to work with both the legacy console APIs and the new PTY and virtual terminal features available in Windows 10, allowing for true color terminal applications on Windows 10.
