Tons of work on ncreel (#627, #749, #694)
Improve reel demo: get input wired up once more, avoid the FPS demo at bottom, print pointer and line count in each tablet, use new ncreel API. Improve notcurses-ncreel explorer: kill memory leaks (#694), draw tablets better, use new ncreel API. Fix bug in ncreel core where cruft could be left on the screen, via a very gross brute force algorithm. I'll likely come back and make this a bit less ghastly in the future #749. Remove weird one-off input system from ncreel, residue from outcurses. Make some of the normalizing changes speced out in #627
* ncreel: give each tablet an index, and print it #749
* reel: eliminate FIXME + param to insert_tabler() #749
* ncreel: label tablets with their adress to correlate against debugging logs #749
* more terminal environment variable notes
* TERMS.md: add Sakura, st
* ncreel: move legend out of reel proper
* ncreel_options: dump min/max_supported_rows/cols #627
* ncreel: remove weird one-off input layer #627
* ncreel: add ncreel_offer_input()

If we don't have setaf/setab, then we're not going to set color.
OK, fine. Don't regard it as an error during
notcurses_rasterization(), just don't emit the escape. This is
necessary to run on terminals like vt100, which in turn is
necessary to run unit tests properly on Redhat's koji.
Also, use notcurses_canfade() to avoid just breaking during
fades in intro and trans demos.
When we don't have an actual terminal in ncdirect, return
placeholder 80x24 for ncdirect_dim_y()/ncdirect_dim_x(), but
don't go querying e.g. a redirected file for its dimensions.
Similarly, only request info about cursor position from a true
TTY (we're otherwise likely to hang, or at best get meaningless
data). Rewrite 'direct' PoC to use ncdirect_dim_*().
Add tty_emit(). Closes#752.
* 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
sometimes when we call fflush(ttyfp), we get EAGAIN. we can
loop on this and force the flush. without it, we (fairly rarely)
get errors on shutdown, sometimes manifesting as unit test
failures (especially in the rust wrappers). #742
in ncdirect_render_image(), we want to emit newlines if and
only if we did not hit the right border. we want to emit
cuds (cursor downs) if and only if we've hit the bottom
border. this resolves all mysteries of blank lines, eliminating
a FIXME. it also fixes ncneofetch's image display on very
wide terminals. closes#756. also removes the display semaphore
in ncneofetch, using a more natural pthread_join().
Use ctermid(3) to identify the controlling terminal device.
When one exists, open(2) it up, and retain this file descriptor
across the life of the ncdirect context. Allow a failure, since
not everything requires such an fd. This will be used for tty-
specific activity such as ioctl()s and escape sequences
involving terminal replies (such as get absolute cursor
position). #752
When we don't have a pidfd available on which to poll(2) (this
is true of Linux pre-5.3, and FreeBSD), we can't rely on a
child death breaking our poll loop. Instead, in this case launch
a second thread, which just sits on a blocking waitpid(2). If
it gets an exit, it calls the completion callback, triggering
the teardown. Closes#728, and ought lets us run the test suite
on FreeBSD.
CELL_ALPHA_OPAQUE et al were defined as 0..3, meaning
CELL_ALPHA_SHIFT had to be used to compare them to their
channel representations. Instead, define them in said
representation outright, eliminating the need to shift while
retaining arithmetic properties, and zero initialization for
CELL_ALPHA_OPAQUE. Eliminate CELL_ALPHA_SHIFT #738.
We're not using NCBLIT_2x2 by default because it warps the
aspect ratio. If we're using NCSCALE_STRETCH, though, we've
(1) already indicated that aspect ratio isn't terribly
important to us and (2) are trying to maximize the space.
Since NCBLIT_2x2 is best for large images anyway, make it
the default when NCSCALE_STRECTH is being used.
Remove all explicit uses of NCBLIT_2x2 when NCSCALE_STRETCH
is being used in notcurses-demo.
Add convenience function ncplane_home(). Add an ncblitter_e param
to ncplane_qrcode(), and split int maxversion into value-result
int* ymax and int* xmax. Write the actual sizes of the resulting
visual into these parameters. Update the qrcode demo. Add the
qrcode PoC. Update demos to ncplane_home(), where possible.
ncplane_qrcode() now takes an ncblitter_e and two value-result int*s
in the place of a single value int. The final size of the displayed qrcode
is written to *ymax and *xmax. If the code can't fit within the specified
dimensions, an error is returned. Standard rules for pluggable blitters
apply regarding fallback etc. #699
The Plot unit tests were reaching directly into the objects,
which meant the implementations couldn't include anything
we didn't want public. This was annoying, so I've changed it.
This required adding ncdplot_sample() and ncuplot_sample(),
which we should have had anyway.
Each plane has a "base cell", which like all other cells is
initialized to the null glyph, opaque default foreground color,
and opaque default background color. Prior to this change, at
each cell of a plane, we decided whether to use that cell (the
"viscell") or the base cell depending on whether the viscell had
a non-null glyph. We now evaluate each component independently.
If the viscell has a null glyph, we use the base cell's glyph.
If the viscell has a default foreground, we use the base's fg.
If the viscell has a default background, we use the base's bg.
This was done because (a) it seems more intuitive (if I set a cell
to red, I expect red, not red iff there's a glyph in that cell
for this plane), and (b) because otherwise it was impossible to
do a multicolor overlay without blowing away underlying glyphs
(since without a glyph, you always reduced to the same base cell,
which could have only one fore- and background per render).
Existing code will need to change any instances where cells
lacking glyphs are colored, and those colors are not desired.
Since any such coloring had no effect before, it seems unlikely
that any ought exist (this did bring to light an instance in
the "qrcode" demo where we were staining overmuch of the plane).
This closes#395, the last big open worry regarding our API.
In order to properly determine the scaling of an ncvisual to
be rendered, ncvisual_geom() needs know the blitting method.
For this reason, it took an ncblitter_e argument. It also,
however, needs handle degradation, which means knowing whether
NCVISUAL_OPTIONS_NODEGRADE is in use. It thus really wants the
struct ncvisual_options. Pass and accept it. Closes#697, and
fixes the "yield" demo in ASCII mode (#696).
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
