Implemented key kombination of Shift + PgUp/PgDn for Gnome terminal.
Same combination copied to all other terminal implementations which use same
codes for Shift + Up/Down but since this is tested on Ubuntu 16.04 with Gnome
Terminal 3.18.3 it could be that it is not correctly implemented for some of the
other terminals.
I have rerun gen.sh having pulled the latest tcell to include this PR:
https://github.com/gdamore/tcell/pull/325.
I am using Ubuntu 19.04 - running gen.sh changed more fields than just
those impacted by the above fix. I've removed those from this commit. (I
verified that gen.sh changed those fields I've removed without the fix
above, so it's not related). Based on TERMINALS.md, I suspect you
regenerate these typically on a Debian machine(?)
@klamonte opened this issue against gowid, a package that relies on tcell for
all its terminal handling: https://github.com/gcla/gowid/issues/24. It
describes how a shell inside a terminal widget that the TUI launches freezes
when the user hits backspace. The TUI loads a tcell TermInfo struct for the
screen-256color terminal and that struct codes KeyBackspace as the single byte
0xff - and so the byte 0xff was sent to the tty. On my Ubuntu 19.04 machine,
`infocmp screen-256color` shows `kbs` is `^?` According to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caret_notation, `^?` should map to 0x7f (127) -
"The digraph stands for the control character whose ASCII code is the same as
the character's ASCII code with the uppermost bit, in a 7-bit encoding,
reversed". This affects both mkinfo.go, the generator of the JSON terminfo
database files, and the dynamic terminfo generator.
fixes#285 Loss of color/mangled formatting on GNU screen
fixes#93 use the terminfo database instead of the json database
This change falls back to using a dynamically generated terminal
description (using infocmp, which must be on the path) if the builtin
database doesn't have a suitable description.
For most users this should resolve the problem of unknown terminals.
This expands support for 24-bit color for terminals that support the
ISO 8613-6:1994 escape sequences (same as xterm), allowing this support
to be enabled by setting % COLORTERM to "truecolor" (or 24bit or 24-bit),
or by setting TCELL_TRUECOLOR to "on", or by setting $TERM a value that
ends in the word "-truecolor".
As this is handled by the runtime now, we no longer need to create magical
database entries for -truecolor options.
A colors.go demo is provided to show off 24-bit color support.
While go-convey was pretty nice, it carries a rather large dependency
graph, which we think it is better not to burden our downstreams with.
It is easy enough to just refactor the tests to use the standard testing
package.
This changes the database to use sha1 based file names. Its not
beautiful, but this is the BS we have to do to cope with the garbage
that is case insensitive filesystems.
Legacy databases are still honored, if you have them.
I noticed that when running a tcell application under tmux using
TERM=screen-256color, some text rendered with style attributes
like bold and underline appeared preceded with "17". This seemed
to come from tcell sending "AttrOff"/sgr0, which in
term_screen_256xcolor.go looks like:
AttrOff: "\x1b[m\x0017"
infocmp screen-256color expresses sgr0 like this:
sgr0=\E[m\017
This terminfo man page implies that \017 should be interpreted as
the octal representation of 15 decimal.
https://www.mkssoftware.com/docs/man5/terminfo.5.asp
The terminfo generator mkinfo.go parses the \0 as a zero, then
the following 17 as the digits 1 and 7. This patch modifies
mkinfo.go and results in the following instead
AttrOff: "\x1b[m\x0f"
This seems to clear up the "17" problem for me. But I am not a
terminal expert by any means, so perhaps my interpretation is
incorrect!
We add st, st-meta, and the -256color and -truecolor variants.
Note that the -truecolor variant was NOT described in the st.info
file, but st uses the same color escapes that everyone else does
for 24-bit color.
This completely restructures the database of terminal types, putting
each terminal in its own file. We also compress the database files,
and use infocmp instead of trying to use the C level API.
The mkdatabase script will rebuild the entire database from the terminfo
files on the system. Individual entries can also be built by simply running
the mkinfo program with the terminal type.
