Benno Schulenberg d8249917c3 bindings: allow toggling the help lines at several prompts and in browser
Now the help lines can be toggled not only while editing, but also at
the Read (^R), Write (^O), Execute (^T), Search (^W), Replace (M-R),
Goto (^/), and Yesno prompts, and also in the file browser and when
searching for a file name.  The help lines cannot be toggled in the
help viewer, nor when searching in a help text, nor in the linter,
as these three things force the help lines to be on.

Furthermore, the 'nohelp' function can be rebound in all relevant
menus (default binding: M-X).

This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58471.

Benno Schulenberg 61c94c2f81 rcfile: report the first bad color element, not a later one that is okay
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58605.

Benno Schulenberg 69a90dd7af tweaks: elide two redundant calls of strchr() 2020-06-18 15:31:06 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg fae2eeadce rcfile: introduce the modifier 'italic', for slanted text
The modifier has to come before the foreground color name, separated
by a comma, and after 'bold,' (when present).  This has no effect on
terminals that are incapable of cursive text, like the Linux console.

This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56525.

Benno Schulenberg 3ff524821c tweaks: move a copyright notice to a better place, and improve it
The username_tab_completion() function taken from busybox-0.46 was
just a stub, it contained basically nothing.  Chris himself wrote
the function in November 2000 (commit be77c611), and rewrote it in
January 2001 (commit 2c2c5f21).

The version of username_tab_completion() in that latter commit looks
somewhat like the version of Vladimir N. Oleynik <dzo@simtreas.ru>
(busybox commit 4e338757).  That commit comes three days after Chris'
commit, but Vladimir's original email is from a week earlier:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2001-January/035687.html.
So... it is quite possible that Rocco saw that email and suggested
to Chris to rewrite username_tab_completion() using getpwent().

Anyway, the version that was taken from busybox-0.46 was just four
lines and thus not worthy of copyright.  The two other functions
that were copied were heavily modified in 2000, so it's better to
add that year in the copyright notice.  It is fine to tweak the
notice: it just says that the original authors must be attributed,
not that the exact text must remain unchanged.

Benno Schulenberg b61d97eb9a tweaks: elide a variable, and shortcircuit a return
Instead of first trying to match things, and then discarding these
matches when the cursor is not at the end of the offered fragment
('buf'), simply don't bother to do any matching in that case.

Benno Schulenberg 23c62c5032 tweaks: drop two unneeded assignments
The variable is set to zero at its declaration, and the second function
is called only when the first is either not called or found nothing --
thus '*num_matches' will still be zero.

Benno Schulenberg c35c5af5d8 syntax: nanorc: colorize the new named colors too, from "mint" to "mauve" 2020-06-17 11:29:05 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg f6e7b7fbc5 rcfile: introduce nine new named colors, from "pink" to "latte"
Names give a rough idea of what the color will look like, whereas
numerical indexes would not do this at all.

Nine extra colors seems enough.  If there were more, no one would be
able to say for sure which is which when two similar colors are used
several rows apart.

This partially fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56445.

Benno Schulenberg 96a5aa9e90 syntax: nanorc: colorize 'bright' anyway, so existing syntaxes look okay
After a year or so, when people have had time to convert their syntaxes
to use 'bold' and/or 'light' instead of 'bright', we can drop this
colorizing, and still later stop recognizing 'bright' altogether.

Marco Diego Aurélio Mesquita 648eac936e files: make the M-F (New Buffer) toggle non-persistent
Having the M-F toggle non-persistent, makes the behavior of ^R
predictable.  This allows string binds that load a file to work
correctly independently of when M-F was last pressed.

The -F/--multibuffer command-line option and "set multibuffer"
in a nanorc file determine the default behavior of ^R.

Benno Schulenberg 26fb83c61f docs: use 'bold' and 'light' instead of 'bright' in the sample nanorc 2020-06-15 15:30:52 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 2fd9974e0e syntax: nanorc: stop colorizing 'bright', even though it's still accepted
The name 'bright' does not fit its effect (often bolding the typeface),
so better discourage its use.

Furthermore, colorize 'bold' and 'light' also for interface colors.

Benno Schulenberg d67faa2bb5 tweaks: remove a superfluous global variable
There were no calls of statusbar() or statusline() before curses mode
was entered.  But since the previous commit curses mode is entered
even earlier, so...

Benno Schulenberg 24cdf78a93 startup: enter curses mode before reading the nanorc files
This way the COLORS variable will be set when the nanorc files specify
interface colors, so that "light" will work for them.

Benno Schulenberg d01dbbb284 rcfile: do not complain when "bright" is used with a background color
A background color *can* be bright (in the sense of lighter, shinier).
It's just that the background cannot be bold.  Only the typeface used
on the foreground can be bold (if the terminal supports it).  So, let
"bright", when used with a background color, simply mean "light".
2020-06-14 12:05:18 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg c275c5158e rcfile: introduce the modifier "bold", for specifying bolding separately
This makes it possible to avoid the misnamed prefix "bright".  It is
misnamed because (on current terminal emulators, when the brightening
of bold is switched off) it just makes the typeface bold, not the color
brighter.  The prefix "light" will now only make the color brigther,
and the modifier "bold" will just make the typeface bold (on terminal
emulators, when the brightening of bold is switched off).

On a Linux console, which is not capable of bolding the typeface,
"bold" will brighten the color.

This fully fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58503.

Benno Schulenberg adf7f33ea8 rcfile: allow specifying a bright background color (with prefix "light")
If the terminal is capable of more than eight colors, specifying
indexes 8 to 15 works fine for getting a light background color.
2020-06-14 11:51:00 +02:00
Benno Schulenberg 4d10f583e4 rcfile: accept prefix "light" to make a color brighter without bolding it
The prefix "bright" will continue to make the color brighter AND/OR
make the typeface bold (depending on how the terminal is configured
and on its capabilities), but the prefix "light" will just make the
color brighter (if the terminal can do that).

The prefix "bright" continues to do the same as what it did before,
to not change the appearance of user-defined syntaxes.  And having
an option to change the meaning of "bright"... would be confusing.

This partially fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58503.

Benno Schulenberg 926bc6751e startup: check stdout instead of stdin when probing for a Linux console
This way we don't have to probe twice, and the result is accurate also
when nano is reading data from standard input.  Standard output should
always be connected to a terminal, as nano is not meant to operate
without a screen.

Benno Schulenberg 77bce9f1c4 tweaks: remove a redundant cursor movement, remove a redundant condition
Each listing of a name is preceeded by a call to wmove(), so there

bottom row of the edit window, the loop is terminated, so there is
no need to check that this is the first item on the bottom row.

Benno Schulenberg a2b85e0c12 indicator: recompute the extra rows also when justifying and resizing

Benno Schulenberg 9a9f36fca7 indicator: rework how the "scrollbar" is computed when softwrapping
Instead of storing for each line the ordinal number of the first chunk
in that line, simply store the number of extra chunks in the line.

It now takes some more computation to actually draw the scrollbar, but
it saves a lot of computation when just inserting or deleting characters
(when using --softwrap and causing a change in chunk count).

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58510.

Benno Schulenberg bea5e85f3e tweaks: make an error message more accurate and reduce it to its essence
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.
