What works:
1. ShaDa file dumping: header, registers, jump list, history, search patterns,
substitute strings, variables.
2. ShaDa file reading: registers, global marks, variables.
Most was not tested.
TODO:
1. Merging.
2. Reading history, local marks, jump and buffer lists.
3. Documentation update.
4. Converting some data from &encoding.
5. Safer variant of dumping viminfo (dump to temporary file then rename).
6. Removing old viminfo code (currently masked with `#if 0` in a ShaDa file for
reference).
This is equivalent to patches 7.4.396, 7.4.445 and 7.4.598.

os_file_is_readonly() in its current form is equivalent to
!os_file_is_writable(). This does not appear to be a bug, because Vim's
use of check_file_readonly() (which we changed to os_file_is_readonly())
is equivalent to !os_file_is_writable() in every case.
os_file_is_readonly() also fails this test:
returns false if the file is non-read, non-write
A more useful form would define behavior under these cases:
- path is executable (but not writable)
- path is non-existent
- path is directory
But there is no reason for os_file_is_readonly() to exist, so remove it.
Making an environment variable empty can be a way of unsetting it for
platforms that don't support unsetenv(). In most cases, we treat empty
variables as having been unset. For all others, use os_env_exists().
The "*" flag in 'cpoptions' makes the command :* execute the contents of
a register. Removed because
1. the same functionality exists as :@
2. it hides :* as a useful command-line shortcut for :'<,'>
3. unlike :@ it cannot be used with the * register

Without the casts*, the compiler rightly warns about the os_getenv
losing the qualifier. This refactor adds a variable to manage this
properly, and renames the original variables to increase clarity.
We already use wrappers for allocation, the new `xfree` function is the
equivalent for deallocation and provides a way to fully replace the malloc
implementation used by Neovim.
Problem: In a help buffer the global 'foldmethod' is used. (Paul Marshall)
Solution: Reset 'foldmethod' when starting to edit a help file. Move the
code to a separate function.

Use os_scandir().
fname_case() only gets used when `defined(USE_FNAME_CASE)` (on operating
systems with case-insensitive file systems), but may be useful in other
contexts, so move it to path.c. (See the TODO.)
Remove the unused parameter, len.
This commit integrates libvterm with Neovim and implements a terminal emulator
with nvim buffers as the display mechanism. Terminal buffers can be created
using any of the following methods:
- Opening a file with name following the "term://[${cwd}//[${pid}:]]${cmd}"
URI pattern where:
- cwd is the working directory of the process
- pid is the process id. This is just for use in session files where a pid
would have been assigned to the saved buffer title.
- cmd is the command to run
- Invoking the `:terminal` ex command
- Invoking the `termopen` function which returns a job id for automating the
terminal window.
Some extra changes were also implemented to adapt with terminal buffers. Here's
an overview:
- The `main` function now sets a BufReadCmd autocmd to intercept the term:// URI
and spawn the terminal buffer instead of reading the file.
- terminal buffers behave as if the following local buffer options were set:
- `nomodifiable`
- `swapfile`
- `undolevels=-1`
- `bufhidden=hide`
- All commands that delete buffers(`:bun`, `:bd` and `:bw`) behave the same for
terminal buffers, but only work when bang is passed(eg: `:bwipeout!`)
- A new "terminal" mode was added. A consequence is that a new set of mapping
commands were implemented with the "t" prefix(tmap, tunmap, tnoremap...)
- The `edit` function(which enters insert mode) will actually enter terminal
mode if the current buffer is a terminal
- The `put` operator was adapted to send data to the terminal instead of
modifying the buffer directly.
- A window being resized will also trigger a terminal resize if the window
displays the terminal.
This commit pulls the some environment-variable handling functions out of
misc1.c and in to os/env.c. Previously submited as #1231, this is the start of
a patch series that does that work based on a more up-to-date master branch.
Major tasks accomplished:
- move functions and fix includes
- fix clint/clang analysis warnings
- correct documentation comments
Switching cursor off is only necessary in two occasions:
- When redrawing to avoid terminal flickering
- When the editor is busy
The first can now be handled by the TUI, so most calls to ui_cursor_off can be
removed from the core.
So, before this commit it was only necessary to switch the cursor off to notify
the user that nvim was running some long operation. Now the cursor_{on,off}
functions have been replaced by busy_{stop,start} which can be handled in a
UI-specific way(turning the cursor off or showing a busy indicator, for
example).
To make things even more simpler, nvim is always busy except when waiting for
user input or other asynchronous events: It automatically switches to a non-busy
state when the event loop is about to be entered for more than 100 milliseconds.
`ui_busy_start` can be called when its not desired to change the busy state in
the event loop (As its now done by functions that perform blocking shell
invocations).
This removes the ability to start nvim via the following aliases in
favor of just using their command line arguments:
ex vim -e
exim vim -E
view vim -R
gvim vim -g
gex vim -eg
gview vim -Rg
rvim vim -Z
rview vim -RZ
rgvim vim -gZ
rgview vim -RgZ
This also removes Vi mode (-v) for consistency. From ':help -v':
-v Start Ex in Vi mode. Only makes a difference when the
executable is called "ex" or "gvim". For gvim the GUI is not
started if possible.
- Removed term.c, term.h and term_defs.h
- Tests for T_* values were removed. screen.c was simplified as a
consequence(the best strategy for drawing is implemented in the UI layer)
- Redraw functions now call ui.c functions directly. Updates are flushed with
`ui_flush()`
- Removed all termcap options(they now return empty strings for compatibility)
- &term/&ttybuiltin options return a constant value(nvim)
- &t_Co is still available, but it mirrors t_colors directly
- Remove cursor tracking from screen.c and the `screen_start` function. Now the
UI is expected to maintain cursor state across any call, and reset it when
resized.
- Remove unused code
- Remove abstract_ui global, now it is always active
- Remove some terminal handling code
- Remove unused functions
- Remove HAVE_TGETENT/TERMINFO/TERMIOS/IOCTL #ifdefs
- Remove tgetent/terminfo from version.c
- Remove curses/terminfo dependencies
- Only start/stop termcap when starting/exiting the program
- msg_use_printf will return true if there are no attached UIs(
messages will be written to stdout)
- Remove `ex_winpos`(implement `:winpos` with `ex_ni`)
If you Google for this phrase found in the Vim documentation you'll find
almost exclusively hits from the Vim documentation. I think changing
"halfway a line" to "halfway through a line" makes more sense.
There seems to be an pervasive odd use of the word 'halfway' in the
original docs which I'm updating everywhere.
Regarding dict_lookup() in eval.c: both definitions are the same, the
only difference being the spacing between the indirection operator and
the indentation level.
Problem : getdigits() currently returns a long, but at most places,
return value is casted (unsafely) into an int. Making casts
safe would introduce a lot of fuss in the form of assertions
checking for limits.
Note : We cannot just change return type to int, because, at some
places, legitimate long values are used. For example, in
diff.c, for line numbers.
Solution : Introduce new functions:
- get_digits() : Gets an intmax_t from a string.
- get_int_digits() : Wrapper for ints.
- get_long_digits() : Wrapper for longs.
And replace getdigits() invocations by the appropiate
wrapper invocations.
