* Swipe for menu and quickstart guide
Because swiping for the menu is a big change from what we're used to, this commit includes a new quickstart guide.
Fixes#2608.
* add some dev docs
* add FileConverter spec
* add QuickStart spec
* add Version module
* add Version spec
* footer(optimize): remove dead code
* footer(fix): disable auto refresh time option when current time is not checked
* fix: support disable progress bar again
* ReaderHighlight: underscore to underline. Although underscore means to
emphasize by underlining, the emphasis lies on the, ahem, emphasis. Besides
which, it's mostly AmE and less well understood worldwide (although in this
particular context it should probably cause no trouble).
* Statistics plugin: menu item text to "reading statistics" to make it clear
which statistics we're talking about. Fixes#2744.
Makes it easier to comply with UX style.
* Change "OK" to "Search dictionary" in Dictionary lookup to comply with UX style
* Change "OK" to "Search all text" in Fulltext search to comply with UX style
Tacked on but highly related:
* change "OK" to "Search Wikipedia" in Wikipedia lookup to comply with UX style
* change "OK" to "Set default" in ConfigDialog to comply with UX style
Chore:
* fixed up order of requires
I think it sounds more natural as chapter than as table of content, which is an implementation detail (i.e., the chapter markers are shown based on what's in the TOC).
Also removed redundant "this" from "Remaining pages in this chapter"
* lang: changed `...` in CloudStorage to real ellipses
* chore: reordered requires in CloudStorage per coding style
* UX: switched "Close" and "Stay alive" in KeepAlive per UX style
* lang: improved message in CloudStorage
* chore: reordered requires in OTAManager per coding style
* lang: removed "your" from "Your KOReader is up to date" in OTAManager
MenuSorter: forgot to add plugin style change
MenuSorter: worked out the final quirks
* Menu always compressed into tables without missing indexes for ipairs compatibility
* Orphans attached
* Separators no longer count as items

@Frenzie Second option is I came to too. Very consistent and nice.

Let's see, I'm not entirely happy with the phrase. Here are a couple of brainstorms.
Would you like to read the full version of this Wikipedia EN article?

@kingu It's the language code, such as EN, FR, etc.

ISSUE
What is %1 here?

Also fix touch zone dependency graph generation code.
ReaderHighlight has now been migrated to use touch zone
Inputcontainer's touch event handling logic changed to only stop
propagation when handler returns `true`. Previously, it stops
propagation when a handler is found. This is needed to support
both readerhighlight_tap and tap_forward touch zones.
Also for the current text-only wikipedia full page: replace
the ==s in section titles with some unicode symbols for a better
visual feeling of hierarchy. These same symbols are also used
in the .epub.
Both can be disabled by adding ["wikipedia_prettify"] = false
to settings.reader.lua
readerhighlight: close ButtonTable (like other buttons do) when looking
up wikipedia, otherwise if we save as epub, and swtich to new document,
this ButtonTable will never be closed and stays in UI.
This patch makes the OPDS Browser treat the default catalogs (Project Gutenberg, Feedbooks, etc.) the same as a user-added catalog. This makes them removable and editable if the user so chooses.
Tap on external urls or invalid links would jump to
document's 1st page. We check first the validity of the
link, and deal with wikipedia links or just show the external
url.
ConfirmBox: allow dismissing/cancelling by taping outside,
to keep UX consistent.
Simple image viewer with Best Fit/Original size and Rotate
(for landscape images) buttons.
readerhighlight: check if hold is on an image to show it

Fix innacurate language query and rotation when back from nested lookups.
More informative lookup message (langage used, search or full page)
Allow for screen refresh with diagonal swipe (like in readerpaging).
For documents without language defined in metadata (.txt, .html),
crengine would fallback to hardcoded English_US_hyphen_(Alan).pdb.
This allows for setting a different one.
Stardict:
- remove duplicate results
- better cleaning of selection
- append results from a 2nd query of a 2nd set of dictionaries
in data/dict_ext/
Wikipedia:
- use the search API for better results
- allow viewing the full page content of a result in a bigger window
- allow queries for multiple languages
- available languages can be set in settings.reader.lua :
["wikipedia_languages"] = {"en", "fr", "it"}
- "Wikipedia lookup" added to Tools menu
For both:
- allow selection of multiple words for a new lookup (so one can
actually browse wikipedia)
- allow continuous reading with Tap
- display "current result / total number of results"
Details in #2393
Touch zone decouples screen size from gesture event registration.
The win here is each individual widget does not need to update
gesture range on screen rotate/resize anymore.
Another advantage is we now have a centralized ordered array to handle
all registered touch event listeners, makes it much easier to resolve
gesture range conflicts between multiple widgets.
This patch also includes the following changes:
* migrate readerpaging to use readerui's touch zone
* migrate readerfooter to use readerui's touch zone
* move inverse read direction setting to touch menu's setting tab
* moved kobolight widget from readerview into readerui
* various dead code cleanups and comments
Allow swipe west to jump to current page's first link (easier than clicking on small links)
Also fixed existing function names to comply with style guide.
This gets rid of sometimes huge spacing between a word and its
description taken from dictionary, and thus need for scrolling just to
read fisrs few lines of description.
I'm not sure what the original intention was, but in practice, the user
experience regarding the way this setting is saved is horrible: it seems
to change randomly and once the orientation is changed from portrait to
landscape, the only way to fix it is to edit `settings.reader.lua`.
- Don't do any substitution unless `home_dir_name` exists.
- Don't rely on `gsub` because it might interpret some characters in
`home_dir` as magical (and might also replace a match not starting at
the beginning of `path`).
* smarter language detection for wikipedia
new order:
* check language for document
* check global language setting
* check language for lookup phrase
Fix: https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/1844
and have more confidence with the unit testing framework.
Now `make testfront` won't retry on failure and testing files are
ordered in each run so that it's possible to reproduce testing failure.
And this patch also fix flush settings not working before suspend issue:
at some point the `FlushSettings` event is sent to `UIManager` instead
of `ReaderUI`, but `UIManager` only delegated events to active widgets
and `ReaderUI` is actually not an active widgets thus will miss the event.
This patch also add a verbose debug mode with "-v" as a switch to turn
on this mode. With verbose mode on, event handling will be logged.
Our previous assumption is user will only choose between full or min
bar. The does not hold anymore as many more info has been added to the
mini bar and sometimes user might want to have both of them on. This
patch makes the reader behavior consistent when both bars are set to be
on for a document.
this should implement feature request of zoom mode for multi-columns
page in #501
This PR depends on koreader/koreader-base#435
How to use?
1. Tap the top left corner of a PDF/Djvu page to get into the flipping
mode
2. Double-tap on text block will zoom in to that column
3. Double-tap on any area will zoom out to an overview of the page
4. repeat step 2 to focus to another page block
How does it work?
1. We first find the mask of text blocks in the page. (Pic 1)
2. Then we intersect page boxes with user tap to form a page block. (Pic 2)
3. Finally we zoom the page to the page block and center current view to
that block. (Pic 3)
A new feature 'read from right to left' is added, which is more fit for
Traditional Chinese and Japanese books. Once the feature is enabled:
1. The gesture region of TapForward and area will be flipped
horizonally;
2. The action for swiping to west and to east will be exchanged.
