Koni Marti 588be1a284 store: improve cursor position
Improve cursor re-positioning while filtering with and without threads.
Reposition cursor in client-side threading mode with a callback that is
set during store.NextPrev(). Run callback when the threads are
constructed in order to reposition the cursor correctly. The callback is
deactivated when store.Select() is called.

Steps to reproduce two issues:

* Reproduce issue 1:

1. Activate client-side threading
2. Apply a filter, e.g. :filter -f Koni
3. Move cursor around so that a message is highlighted
4. clear filter with :clear
5. The cursor is expected to remain on the selected message but is
   actually not

* Reproduce issue 2:

1. Activate client-side threading
2. Go the end of the message list
2. Apply a filter, e.g. :filter -f Koni
5. The cursor is now at the end of the filtered results instead of at
   the beginning

This patch fixes both of those issues. Tested in regular and threaded
view according to the following check list (expected behavior in
parenthesis):

1. Apply filter from a message that remains in the filter (cursor on message,
   message selected)
2. Apply filter from a message that will not remain (cursor at the top,
   no message selected)
3. Clear filter (cursor remains on message, message selected)
4. Scroll line-by-line (threads: cursor remains on line, does not "jump"
   with message)
5. Search (cursor on first result)

aerc

builds.sr.ht status GitHub macOS CI status

aerc is an email client for your terminal.

This is a fork of the original aerc by Drew DeVault.

A short demonstration can be found on https://aerc-mail.org/

Join the IRC channel: #aerc on irc.libera.chat for end-user support, and development.

Usage

On its first run, aerc will copy the default config files to ~/.config/aerc on Linux or ~/Library/Preferences/aerc on MacOS (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/aerc if set) and show the account configuration wizard.

If you redirect stdout to a file, logging output will be written to that file:

$ aerc > log

Note that the example HTML filter (off by default), additionally needs w3m and dante to be installed.

Documentation

Also available as man pages:

Installation

Binary Packages

Recent versions of aerc are available on:

And likely other platforms.

From Source

Install the dependencies:

  • go (>=1.16) (Go versions are supported until their end-of-life; support for older versions may be dropped at any time due to incompatibilities or newer required language features.)
  • scdoc

Then compile aerc:

$ make

aerc optionally supports notmuch. To enable it, you need to have a recent version of notmuch, including the header files (notmuch.h). Then compile aerc with the necessary build tags:

$ GOFLAGS=-tags=notmuch make

To install aerc locally:

# make install

By default, aerc will install config files to directories under /usr/local/aerc, and will search for templates and stylesets in these locations in order:

  • ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/aerc
  • ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/aerc
  • /usr/local/share/aerc
  • /usr/share/aerc

At build time it is possible to add an extra location to this list and to use that location as the default install location for config files by setting the PREFIX option like so:

# make PREFIX=/custom/location
# make install PREFIX=/custom/location

This will install templates and other config files to /custom/location/share/aerc, and man pages to /custom/location/share/man. This extra location will have lower priority than the XDG locations but higher than the fixed paths.

Contributing

Anyone can contribute to aerc. Please refer to the contribution guidelines
