1. Fix the functions sizeUtf8Text(), renderUtf8Text() and
renderUtf8TextWidth() to have a meaningful test whether to kern or not
(the current code is meaningless as it contains the `else` clause that is never
executed).
2. Whitespace changes to filechooser.lua
Although the current rendering mode can also be ascertained by pressing
"R" and noting the current position in the menu, it is convenient to
show it alongside the page type in the Menu status info.
It is a bad idea to use too many keys for the same function and also do
this non-uniformly (i.e. not in all contexts). The info at the bottom of
Help screen says "Back to close this page", so only KEY_BACK (but not
KEY_HOME) should serve this purpose. And if the user pressed Home twice
then the whole application would exit, so using Home here is a bad idea.
1. Initialize self.commands only once
2. Corrections to hotkeys: added fast jumps to item at position 0%,
10%, ... 100% by Alt+Q, W, ... P
3. Added fast jump to page entered via inputbox (by G)
4. Cleanup of function descriptions and to hotkeys.
5. Added a function deleteFoundFile(full_filename) used by KEY_DEL
handler.
The current step of 25% forward and 20% backward is too big and does not
let us come close enough to the design value of 2.2 for most djvu files.
With 10% step we can get much closer.
The DjVu info shown in the status line includes:
1. Physical page dimensions.
2. Current value of gamma and (in square brackets) the value of the
display for which the page was designed.
3. Page resolution (in dpi).
4. Page type.
For the end-user probably the most useful bit is the page type as it
helps him decide which rendering mode to choose for this page (and also
explains why he can't see anything on the page --- e.g. when rendering
some COMPOUND or PHOTO pages in B&W mode). For the developer the
physical page dimensions are also interesting as they allow to estimate
the amount of time needed for page decoding and cache efficiency.
I didn't realize that the voice message is optional, so the last
argument can be deleted, i.e. in this case the voice message can be the
same as the text one.
This fixes the issue #370 raised by dracodoc.
When the user removes or renames the book which was previously opened
and tries to open it again via (now stale) history entry we are passing
the filename of a non-existent file to the format-specific
:openDocument() method and the behaviour depends on the format. For PDF
and DjVu files it is okay --- they just return an error, but for the
crengine files (ebooks) we get a coredump.
Anyway, the proper solution is to not attempt to open a non-existent
file but give a more meaningful message (than, for example:
"ddjvu: **Unrecognized DjVu Me" for DjVu case) which informs the user
that the history entry is stale. If he has valuable data in it (such as
highlights, etc) he can save them, otherwise he can delete the history
entry there and then.
Now that #define CRENGINE_DEBUG is handled correctly, all those pesky
messages from crengine are gone and so the performance of crereader
should be much better --- remember that under some circumstances
crengine generates literally THOUSANDS of debug messages per second
(e.g. when complaining about corrupt TOC nodes and there are _plenty_ of
fb2 files out there which have an invalid structure).
After some consideration I believe that it is best to get rid of
"Retrieving TOC..." message altogether on the following grounds:
1. The code in unireader.lua/crereader.lua that has to deal with this
specifically can be removed.
2. The fillToc() is a data manipulation function and ought not to touch
graphical state.
3. The files for which retrieving TOC can take a long time are
_exceptionally_ rare (only two are known to me --- both are my own
editions with detailed morphological tags which require massive
hierarchical TOC for quick navigation)
4. Users are going to be confused when they press Menu for the first
time and see "Retrieving TOC..." staying on the screen until they press
Menu again.
It is best to restrict Home to only exit from the application (or
perhaps also for closing the document, though even this is doubtful) and
not use it in any other context, because otherwise pressing Home too
many times may inadvertently exit the application and annoy the user.
It is a bad practice to let user try various keys in different contexts
and hope that one of them may work.
Instead of making an extra function call, packing return values in key'd
values of a table and then use two table indexing operations, just call
util.df(".") directly from FileInfo:formatDiskSizeInfo() and use its two
return values appropriately.
Don't try to register the two fonts Dingbats.cff and StandardSymL.cff
with crengine because it will reject them anyway. But we cannot simply
remove these two fonts because they are used internally by mupdf to
emulate "builtin" fonts which are mandated by Adobe PDF specification to
be present in every valid implementation.
1. Remove ".." entry as unnecessary waste of (rather limited) space.
Pressing KEY_BACK returns the user from this dialog, so there is no need
for the ".." entry.
2. Simplify FileHistory:init() function as it does not really need the
argument --- our history location is fixed and hardcoded.
3. Remove KEY_HOME quit key from history command handlers. Pressing Home
key too many times would cause the application to exit, which is
very annoying.
4. Show the number of items in the header next to "Last Documents".
think about setting the alignment trap to a mode that includes warn,
that simply kills the performance because of the storm of faults the
syslog gets...
MG 2012.03 pulling GLIBC_2.15 symbols from libm (because -ffast-math asks
for it).
I didn't see this on my own TC because it's using a much older glibc version (2.9).
