* Some things go to the FILE* we're provided. Some can only go to a controlling terminal. Check to see if the FILE we're given is a TTY. If not, open up /dev/tty #752.
* term_emit(): fflush() can return EAGAIN. Loop on it to eliminate a rare error on shutdown that particularly affected unit tests (where we start and shut down Notcurses many times in a row).
* sgr poc: check return value of setlocale()
* drone: run all unit tests
* CMake: add some tests using PoCs
* ncneofetch: print even small palettes
Very simple take at ncplane_puttext(), a new function for linebroken text. Also some very basic unit tests. I doubt this works very well yet, but it handles the simplest cases #682. Added nclog(), internal function for logging. #520
This represents an essentially complete rewrite of ncvisual and associated code. It had two major goals:
Improve the ncvisual API based off lessons learned, pursuant to the upcoming API freeze. In particular, I wanted to:
decouple ncvisuals from ncplanes. It should be possible to render a ncvisual to multiple planes, with different scaling each time. It should be possible to create an ncvisual without a plane, etc.
normalize the various ways of constructing an ncvisual -- file, memory, plane, etc.
Support multiple blitters, from 7-bit ASCII to Sixel. This required writing the blitters in several cases, and they're not yet in their final implementations (but the API is fine)
I have not yet unified Plots and Visuals, and might not, given that the Plot code works fine. We could at this point implement Plots in terms of Visuals, though -- the blitter backend range has been unified. Sixel is not yet implemented, though it is listed.
There is a new POC tool, blitter. It renders its arguments using all possible blitter+scaling combinations. Another new POC, resize, displays its argument, then resizes it to the screen size and displays that, explicitly making use of ncvisual_resize() rather than a scaling parameter to ncvisual_render().
This also eliminates some memory leaks and bugs we were seeing in trunk, and brings in Sixel scaffolding.
The C++ wrapper will also need patching back up; I cut most of it down while wrestling with this crap, urk.
Closes#638, #562, and #622.
Get rid of annoying empty line in notcurses-view (and ncvisuals at offsets in general)
Implement most of the Selector widget. Need to add styling and scrolling still. #166
Reenable ubuntu focal build
Subtitles! We decode them, and display them in notcurses-view. If ncvisual_simple_streamer() is provided an extra ncplane, it will use it to display subtitles. #95
We now build Python by default, as things are working much better.
ncplane_set_base() now takes channel, attrword, and EGC, so you can usually avoid having to set up and release a cell. ncplane_set_base_cell() takes over duty from ncplane_set_base() for ease of conversion.
notcurses-demo and notcurses-view now both accept a 0 for delay multiplier, meaning 'go as fast as you possibly can'. Very small multipliers (e.g. 0.00001) no longer cause floating point exceptions.
fading routines no longer cause floating point exceptions on very small timescales.
