There is no need to be explicit about not having saved the buffer --
it is implied in the "Too many". And anyway, no one is ever going to
see this message -- who will have a hundred thousand .save files?
Trimming this message makes the tiny version smaller.
Also, rewrap a neighbouring line.
By default, the position indicator is off. It can be turned on
by passing -q or --indicator on the command line, or by adding
'set indicator' in your nanorc file.
A new member ('chunk_nr') is added to each 'linestruct', to store
the serial number of the first chunk of that line, so that, when
softwrap is on, the scroll-bar thing can be computed relative to
chunks instead of relative to actual lines.
To guarantee that 'chunk_nr' is correctly synced, the buffer is
renumbered whenever the number of chunks in a line changes, and
also when softwrap is toggled on, and when buffers are switched.

This displays a scrollbar-like thing on the right edge of the screen,
giving a rough indication where in the buffer the text that is being
shown in the viewport is located, and how large/small a portion of
the buffer this text is.
(Support for softwrapping, and an option to turn the indicator on,
will arrive in subsequent commits.)
This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57956.

(Unfortunately, this means that ^L cannot be used for the
Linter in the "Execute Command" menu.)
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58469.
Bug existed since around version 2.1.0.
Nano would beep (and report "Unknown sequence") only when in the main
edit window, in the help viewer, or in the file browser. But the same
keystroke at a prompt would be enigmatically silent.
Also, in the file browser, nano would leave the cursor at the end of
the "Unknown sequence" message when --showcursor was used.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58490.
Bug existed (in this form) since around version 2.7.4,
and in a worse form since around version 2.3.5.
A help text is contained in a normal buffer (since quite a while now),
so cursor placement should work like in a regular edit window.
Also, remove an unneeded switching on of the cursor -- it is already on
as nano is waiting for keyboard input.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58489.
Bug existed since version 3.2, commit 10d9742c, since --showcursor
shows the cursor also in the help viewer.
If a replacement changed the matching of a multiline coloring regex,
then wipe the existing multiline data and recalculate it for the whole
buffer.
There is no need to redraw the current line (let alone the whole window)
directly after a replacement, because if there is a next occurrence, the
edit window will be redrawn then in order to spotlight that occurrence;
and if there is no other occurrence, the edit window will be redrawn in
the main loop because there has been at least one replacement.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58481.
Bug existed (in this form) since version 2.7.5. Before that,
the miscoloring could happen even without scrolling.
When resizing the screen or toggling the help lines or refreshing
the screen with ^L, what used to be total_refresh() would first call
what used to be total_redraw(), to tell ncurses to redraw whatever
had been on the screen so far, before proceeding to fully redraw the
content of the title bar and the edit window and the bottom bars.
That was duplicate work.
Thus, rename total_redraw() to total_refresh(), so that ^L in the
edit window, help viewer, and file browser will redraw the screen
just once. This also preserves whatever was on the status bar
(when --quickblank isn't used).
Rename the old total_refresh() to draw_all_subwindows() and call
this routine when resizing the screen or toggling the help lines
or returning from the credits crawl.
This makes that the M-F toggle stays roughly in the same place when
toggling between "Read File" and "Execute Command", and groups the
six special commands together.
This makes suspension more discoverable, and allows the user to rebind
^Z in the main menu without losing the ability to suspend nano.
This drops the ^X (Flip Execute) toggle from the menu -- keeping it
would make an ugly uneven number and would reduce the space for each
menu item too much (clipping "Full Justify" and "Cut Till End") --
but it is still present as a blind toggle.
Make the "Execute Command" menu accessible also with a single keystroke
(^T), not just with a double one (^R^X). This is useful, because no one
will suspect that "Execute Command" can be found behind "Read File".
To not disturb muscle memory too much for people who are used to ^T
invoking the Spell Checker, a second ^T will invoke it.
Instead of creating a special Tools menu, add the five functions that
affect the whole buffer to the "Execute Command" menu. There is room
for these five functions there, and they kind of fit in because three
of them (Speller, Linter, and Formatter) actually invoke an external
command, and Full Justify could have been implemented externally, and
the destructive Cut Till End ought to have required a double keystroke
since the beginning.
Also, do not prompt when there is no space left on the device,
because then trying to save the actual file would likely lead
to truncating it, resulting in an empty file.
Only when fclose() is called, does the data get flushed out to disk,
and maybe only then the system realizes that there is no space left on
the device, as Chris noted in: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?24000.
When asking this question when deleting fails or writing fails,
it should be asked too when creating fails. Otherwise the user
is blocked from saving the file -- until she realizes that maybe
toggling off backups would help.
If the user answered "No" or "Cancel" the first time, they should
be allowed to answer "Yes" the next time -- possibly after fixing
the necessary permissions in another terminal.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58442.
Bug existed since version 2.3.0, commit 3d411188.
Access control lists can permit read and write access to a file
but not permit to manipulate any attributes of the file. So it
is quite possible for futimens() to fail, just like chown() and
chmod() can fail, but this should be no cause for alarm: as long
as writing the backup file worked, then writing the file itself
will probably work too.
First, it is very unlikely that chmod() would fail as the user just
created the file herself. Second, even if chmod() would fail, this
is not a problem, because we have created the file with read+write
permissions for the owner only, so the file cannot accidentally be
left accessible to unintended others.
But most of all, such a failure should not stop nano from trying to
write the backup file. Only when the actual *writing* fails, should
we bother the user with a prompt.
If there are still systems where mkstemp() creates world-readable
temporary files, then please holler. On current BSDs and on GNU,
I've verified that mkstemp() creates files with 0600 permissions.
When deleting an existing backup file failed, we do not want to
append to this file, but want instead to overwrite it (when the
user has put 'set allow_insecure_backup' in their nanorc file).
Also, when using O_EXCL (in the normal, secure case), O_APPEND
is pointless, because the file will be created and thus empty.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58439.
Bug existed since version 2.2.5, commit 461519cc.
A normal user can change the group of a file (if the user is a member
of that group), but cannot change the owner of that file. So, when a
user edits a file that belongs to a different user, the call of fchown()
will fail. But there is no harm in that. Also when the user is root,
there is no harm in fchown() failing -- it will simply mean that the
backup file will remain owned by root and will not be writable by the
intended owner (when root has the normal umask of 0022).
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58383.
Bug existed since version 2.2.5, commit 86be3af7.
In the past, when Speller and Linter and Formatter were all bound
to ^T (later ones taking priority), it was easier to exclude also
the formatter code when --disable-speller was used. But since the
formatter was reintroduced (in commit 34170611) and bound to its
own keystroke (M-F), this is no longer the case.
