Aerc will keep track of the previous 1000 commands, which the user can
cycle through using the arrow keys while in the ex-line. Pressing up
will move backwards in history while pressing down will move forward.
This patch sets up the trigger config section of aerc.conf.
Each trigger has its own function which is called from the place where
it is triggered. Currently only the new-email trigger is implemented.
The triggers make use of format strings. For instance, in the new-email
trigger this allows the user to select the trigger command and also the
information extracted from the command and placed into their command.
To actually execute the trigger commands the keypresses are simulated.
Further triggers can be implemented in the future.
Formatting of the command is moved to a new package.
This command allows the user to change tab by giving the tab name. This
can be tab completed too. The previous tab is stored in the tabs module
so that when a new tab is created it is still possible to go to the
previous one.
Normal invocation is :ct folder
Previous tab is :ct -
This patch adds the currently pressed keys to the statusline. This is
useful when keybindings are multiple keys long and you might forget
which keys are already pressed.
This introduces a new interface `Clickable`. I'd imagine this would be
implemented for most widgets eventually and would allow for programs run
in the terminal to also have their mouse events forwarded to them.
For the tabs it was relatively simple to check that the position of the
click is within the boxes for the tabs. For other components I'd imagine
that some state representing their currently drawn bounding box would be
useful.
* :save takes a path and saves the current message part to that location
* :pipe is the same as pipe on the account page, but uses the current
message part rather than the whole email (ie :pipe gzip -d)
* Refactored account:pipe and extracted common pipe code to
commands.util.QuickTerm
* Added helper command aerc.PushError
This commit introduces a new Aerc.Tick function that should be called to
refresh the internal state. This in turn makes each AccountView process worker
events.
The UI goroutine repeatedly refreshes the internal state before drawing a new
frame. The reason for this is that many worker messages may need to be
processed for a single frame, and drawing the UI is far slower than refreshing
the internal state. This has been confirmed in my testing (calling Aerc.Tick
only once per frame results in a slower display).
Many synchronization code has been removed. We can now write widgets without
having to care so much about races. The remaining sync users are:
- widgets/spinner: the spinner value is updated from inside an internal
goroutine
- lib/ui/invalidatable: Invalidate may be called from any goroutine
- lib/ui/grid: same
- lib/ui/ui: an internal goroutine needs read access to UI.exit
- worker/types/worker: Worker.callbacks is used for both worker and UI
callbacks
The exact goroutine requirements for Drawable have been documented.
This is a simple mostly straight forward switch to tcell in favor of
termbox.
It uses the tcell native api (not the compat layer) but does not make
use of most features.
Further changes should include moving to tcell's views.TextArea and the
general built in widget behaviour instead of the current ad hoc
implementation.
Regression: Cursor isn't shown in ex-line
