- Set 't_Co' to 256 at startup. The value can be changed by the user for
compatibility with terminals that are less capable.
- `has('gui_running')` will return 1 if at least one rgb UI is attached.
Even though these changes are hacky, they are necessary to make the transition
to the new UI architecture smoother.
Notes regarding the removal of specific items:
- Aztec C: only on the Amiga.
- mch_check_win(): doesn't exist anymore.
- Comment in ex_cmds.c: It seems the context for this comment was
removed, but the comment was inadvertantly left alone.
This is how Nvim behaves when the "abstract_ui" termcap is activated:
- No data is written/read to stdout/stdin by default.
- Instead of sending data to stdout, ui_write will parse the termcap codes
and invoke dispatch functions in the ui.c module.
- The dispatch functions will forward the calls to all attached UI
instances(each UI instance is an implementation of the UI layer and is
registered with ui_attach).
- Like with the "builtin_gui" termcap, "abstract_ui" does not contain any key
sequences. Instead, vim key strings(<cr>, <esc>, etc) are parsed directly by
input_enqueue and the translated strings are pushed to the input buffer.
With this new input model, its not possible to send mouse events yet. Thats
because mouse sequence parsing happens in term.c/check_termcodes which must
return early when "abstract_ui" is activated.
Instead of building all metadata from msgpack-gen.lua, we now merge the
generated part with manual information(such as types and features). The metadata
is accessible through the api method `vim_get_api_info`.
This was done to simplify the generator while also increasing flexibility(by
being able to add more metadata)
Reuse the profiling functions to implement the startuptime functions.
Decreases our dependency on `gettimeofday()` and thus gets us a little bit
closer to a clean port to Windows.
- The 'stripdecls.py' script replaces declarations in all headers by includes to
generated headers.
`ag '#\s*if(?!ndef NEOVIM_).*((?!#\s*endif).*\n)*#ifdef INCLUDE_GENERATED'`
was used for this.
- Add and integrate gendeclarations.lua into the build system to generate the
required includes.
- Add -Wno-unused-function
- Made a bunch of old-style definitions ANSI
This adds a requirement: all type and structure definitions must be present
before INCLUDE_GENERATED_DECLARATIONS-protected include.
Warning: mch_expandpath (path.h.generated.h) was moved manually. So far it is
the only exception.
As discussed in #694, vim encryption uses old,
obsolete algorithms that are poorly implemented.
Since insecure cryptography is worse than no
cryptgraphy, the community voted in favor of
removing all crypto.
Various alternatives to the old crypto is
being discussed in #701.
Closes#694.
