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`)
Instead of using classic cterm color numbers and attributes, treat "abstract_ui"
as a GUI: Pass rgb color numbers and gui attributes when the "highlight_set" UI
method is called. The terminal UI will have to translate RGB color information
to an appropriate color number, and the "term"/"cterm" :highlight keys will
eventually be deprecated.
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.
Also:
- Remove NO_CONSOLE_INPUT/NO_CONSULE preprocessor conditionals
- Remove ctrl_c_interrupts variable, check for mapped_ctrl_c directly in
process_interrupts()
- Move ui_inchar profiling to input_poll which is where Nvim blocks for input.
These use autoloaded vimscript to replace the provider_call/provider_has
functions, moving the implementation of providers to pure vimscript(we lose
nothing since vimscript can also call msgpack-rpc functions).
When calling the rpcrequest function from a provider, temporarily switch to the
caller scope. This is required for compatibility with legacy plugins, because
they may depend on scope information that changes when "leaving" the C stack to
enter the vimscript stack.
Can't reliably get this information from cmake (#1267), so it's
misleading to show these messages at all. We can always revert this
commit if we find a way later.
Problem: Possible crash when an BufLeave autocommand deletes the buffer.
Solution: Check for the window pointer being valid. Postpone freeing the
window until autocommands are done. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)

Problem: Making 'ttymouse' empty after the xterm version was requested
causes problems. (Elijah Griffin)
Solution: Do not check for DEC mouse sequences when the xterm version was
requested. Also don't request the xterm version when DEC mouse
was enabled.

Allow globals.h to be included without including vim.h. Another small piece
of the puzzle of dismantling vim.h.
Moving some extra `#define`'s to globals.h is no better than having them in
vim.h. We should, in a later PR, move them to the file where they belong or
to a separate `constants.h` or something.
Vim does not define TEMPDIRNAMES for all systems, but it is defined for
all systems supported by Neovim.
Temporary directory names for Windows was obtained from GetTempPath()
function documentation at MSDN.
Additionally small renamings were performed.
