Benno Schulenberg 545709a165 weeding: remove some obsolete information from the README
The distinction between a stable series (even minor number) and
a development series (uneven) was abandonned five years ago.
This information is no longer helpful.

Benno Schulenberg caef3128eb search: suppress the cursor when highlighting a match
Having a block cursor present when highlighting a match...
does not look nice.  So... hide the cursor until the next
keystroke, unless --showcursor or 'set showcursor' is used.

Benno Schulenberg 856a6ecde3 search: set the mark at the end of a found match so it gets highlighted
Not only does the match get highlighted (for better visibility), but
this also allows deleting the match with a single keystroke (^K, or
<Del> or <Bsp> when --zap is used) and then type something else.

Benno Schulenberg 2b6c08b955 minibar: add an [x/y] "counter" when multiple files are open 2020-12-23 12:17:06 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg b86f7868d1 feedback: differentiate between remarks, mistakes, and information
Remarks are about unsurprising things but it's good to give feedback
on them; "mistakes" are unexpected things, and get colored like an
error; and information is something that the user requested and thus
needs to stay on the status bar until the next keystroke.

Benno Schulenberg 54995defd2 input: intercept ^Z also when --minibar is active
For some reason, calling halfdelay() undoes the ISIG mask.
So, mask keyboard interrupts again immediately after the call.

Benno Schulenberg b89bc2cce6 minibar: show the info bar again some 0.8 seconds after a message
Instead of redisplaying the minibar only upon the next keystroke
(when some feedback message is shown on the status bar), time the
waiting for the keystroke out after four fifths of a second, then
redisplay the minibar and continue the wait.

Benno Schulenberg 8f24ffaaef options: add --minibar and -_ for activating basic state-information bar 2020-12-23 12:17:05 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg d31cc373de display: add code for showing minimal state-information bar at the bottom
When activated, it suppresses the title bar, and suppresses feedback
on the status bar for toggles whose effect is obvious or whose state
is already shown in the minibar.

Benno Schulenberg 265bdd94f1 mouse: do not offset the shortcuts by 'margin' when using --linenumbers
The bottom window (the prompt bar and the shortcuts) does not shift
its position when line numbers are active, so mouse clicks in this
window should be not be compensated for the line-numbers margin.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59749.
Indirectly-reported-by: ObeliX <ObeliX-@gmx.de>

Bug existed since version 2.7.0, since line numbers were introduced.

OIX d1c412d200 mouse: update title bar (the M flag) when the click is on the cursor
Clicking on the cursor toggles the mark, meaning that the flags in
the title bar should be updated when --stateflags is active.

Benno Schulenberg 8ba653f395 docs: mention in NEWS that some workarounds were removed
It would have been good to mention this for the 5.4 release,

Benno Schulenberg d96f296b8e input: interpret a keystroke as Meta only when an earlier escape was solo
This allows using <Esc> <Esc> <letter> in a macro as an alternative
for <Ctrl+letter>, but it does require that one does not type <Esc>
by accident when recording a macro as it might modify the subsequent
keystroke when the macro is replayed.

Benno Schulenberg 00ac41f632 weeding: remove another unneeded workaround for VTE

Benno Schulenberg fe22da6b2a build: exclude a workaround for VTE/Konsole when using a recent ncurses
The workaround was for https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51335
(a cursor-misplacement bug), but both an recent Xfce Terminal
and a recent Konsole appear unaffected by the issue.  So, drop
the workaround for modern systems.

Benno Schulenberg 0c87a4ba41 build: include a workaround for VTE only when using an older libvte

when ncurses is 6.2 or newer.
