2017-03-15Fix README markdown and improve contribution sectionMarc André Tanner
2017-03-14Add experimental raw vt100 UI backendMarc André Tanner
The intention of this is not to slowly reimplement curses but to provide a minimal working terminal UI backend which can also be used for debugging, fuzzing and in environments where curses is not available. Currently no attempt is made to optimize terminal output. The amount of flickering will depend on the smartness of your terminal emulator.
2017-02-21Tweak READMEMarc André Tanner
2017-02-16Move more README content to the WikiMarc André Tanner
Still hopefully that it will eventually become accessible again. After github reverts the flagging of my account. For now I have cloned it locally just in case.
2017-02-09Slightly update developer section of READMEMarc André Tanner
2017-02-09Remove regex section from READMEMarc André Tanner
By now we have efficient forward searches using the TRE regex backend. Further improvements can be discussed in #488. Close #260
2017-01-19text-regex: add regex backend based on libtreMarc André Tanner
While memory consumption should be improved, backward searches will still be slow, because they are implemented in terms of repeated forward searches. It needs to be investigated whether the underlying automaton can have its transitions reversed and essentially run backwards, as is the case in sam.
2016-12-06Reorganize READMEMarc André Tanner
Reference external manual page and Lua API documentation. This is still work in progress the piece table documentation should probably also be moved somewhere else.
2016-11-28sam: introduce `m as an address refering to mark mMarc André Tanner
2016-11-28vis-lua: add file.path property denoting the absolute path to the fileMarc André Tanner
Close #407
2016-11-22vis: add `:set escdelay nn` optionMarc André Tanner
Make the delay used to distinguish between an <Escape> key and other terminal escape sequences such as for the Meta key run time configurable. The value is given in miliseconds and defaults to 50ms. Notice that terminal multiplexers like dvtm or tmux might also induce some delay which has to be configured independently.
2016-11-22vis-lua: introduce pre-save hookMarc André Tanner
The first argument is the file object while the second argument denotes the full path to which it will be written. Path might be `nil` if the file is going to be written to stdout. The Lua function is expected to return a boolean value indicating whether the write operation should proceed or be aborted.
2016-11-22vis-lua: pass path as second argument to file_save_post event hookMarc André Tanner
The passed path can be different from file.name for instance when opening a file `a` and then doing `:w b` where file.name will be the former and path the latter.
2016-11-21vis-lua: rename file_save event to file_save_postMarc André Tanner
Indicating that the event is triggered *after* a successfull write.
2016-11-21sam: change default addresses used for commands in normal modeMarc André Tanner
Except for special commands like `w` and `wq` treat the cursor as an implicit one character selection to which the command is applied.
2016-11-17Add code coverage badge to the READMEMarc André Tanner
2016-11-15Fix documentation regarding Lua paths in README and manual pageMarc André Tanner
Wether `/usr/local/share/vis` or `/usr/share/vis` is used depends on how the configure script was invoked. However, both are never used at the same time. This section should be completely reworked at some point.
2016-11-15vis: move initial theme loading code to luaMarc André Tanner
2016-11-14vis-lua: add vis.ui.colors denoting the number of available colorsMarc André Tanner
2016-11-11vis: add `:set shell` optionMarc André Tanner
2016-11-10vis-lua: change misnamed attribute values of `file.newlines`Marc André Tanner
Also rename underlying C code.
2016-11-10vis: split `:set show <option>` into separate optionsMarc André Tanner
It was the only command option which needed `=` to assign a value to. This unifies the argument parsing logic and adds the possibility to specify a per-option help text. You might want to adapt your visrc.lua configuration accordingly.
2016-11-09README: Fix instructions for lexers and themesKlemens Nanni
2016-11-09Use nicer IRC badge in READMEMarc André Tanner
2016-11-09Add another useless badge to the READMEMarc André Tanner
2016-09-19vis-lua: document lua file close eventMarc André Tanner
2016-09-19vis-lua: expose file save event to luaMarc André Tanner
Triggered after the new file content has been written to disk.
2016-09-19vis-lua: expose file open event to luaMarc André Tanner
The event is only triggerred for new files read from disk (e.g. splitting an existing window will not cause an event to be emitted).
2016-08-24vis-lua: add win:draw() functionMarc André Tanner
2016-08-24vis: overhaul input queue handlingMarc André Tanner
Let vis_keys_feed always have an immediate effect. Previously, if called from a key input handler the keys would just be added to the input queue and processed once the current key handler returned. This also affects the exposed Lua API.
2016-08-07Mention POSIX.1-2008 as a requirement in READMEMarc André Tanner
Close #353
2016-05-24vis-lua: cleanup Lua status bar display codeMarc André Tanner
2016-05-22vis-lua: add win:status functionMarc André Tanner
2016-05-22vis-lua: add vis.recording propertyMarc André Tanner
2016-05-22vis-lua: add window.{width, height} read only propertiesMarc André Tanner
2016-05-22vis-lua: add vis.VERSION propertyMarc André Tanner
It is a string in `git describe` format, as reporte by `vis -v`.
2016-05-22vis-lua: add window.viewport rangeMarc André Tanner
2016-05-22vis-lua: add bindings for new view style functionsMarc André Tanner
2016-05-22We don't use slmenu, so don't mention it.Tim Allen
2016-05-14vis-lua: add win:map function for window local key mappingsMarc André Tanner
Based on a patch by Josh Wainwright. Close #306
2016-05-04vis-lua: add new theme_change event hookMarc André Tanner
2016-05-04note that primary cursor is not blinkingErlend Fagerheim
2016-05-01vis-lua: expose vis:feedkeys APIMarc André Tanner
2016-04-29vis: move non-configuration sections out of visrc.lua into vis.luaMarc André Tanner
The intention is that vis.lua will provide parts of the Lua API not implemented in the C core. Please update your existing visrc.lua configuration file accordingly.
2016-04-26vis-lua: add file.modified propertyMarc André Tanner
2016-04-23Mention NixOS package in READMEMarc André Tanner
2016-04-21vis-lua: allow selection modification by assigning to cursor.selectionMarc André Tanner
2016-04-21vis-lua: implement vis:message(msg)Marc André Tanner
2016-04-21vis-lua: also accept a range as argument for file:delete and file:contentMarc André Tanner
2016-04-21vis-lua: add vis:command_register to map a Lua function to a :-commandMarc André Tanner
The following registers `:foo` as a command which prints a few things to stdout: vis:command_register("foo", function(argv, force, win, cursor, range) for i,arg in ipairs(argv) do print(i..": "..arg) end print("was command forced with ! "..(force and "yes" or "no")) print(win.file.name) print(cursor.pos) print(range ~= nil and ('['..range.start..', '..range.finish..']') or "invalid range") return true; end)
