Releases from chrisant996/clink fork

v1.1.1-alpha

  • Exclusively use Readline's completion implementation. This (with fixes and enhancements in Readline itself) makes the completion experience much nicer and more sophisticated.
  • Exclusively use Readline's key binding implementation. This makes it possible to have a single consistent way to set key bindings (inputrc) and for clink-show-help to list all key bindings.
  • Converted all of clink's internal key behaviors to be implemented as commands that can be bound in the inputrc file.
  • Rewrote and refactored the pagination routine to be used in multiple places.
  • Fixed prompt filtering to correctly use the specified priority order.
  • Readline library:
    • Updated the Readline library from v6.2 to v8.0. This picked up lots of bug fixes and new capabilities (for example colored completions).
    • Changed Readline to support backslash as a path separator.
    • The pager prompt in Readline is optionally colored, controlled by the colour.interact clink setting.
    • Added completion-auto-query-items config variable (on by default) which asks whether to list possible matches when the number of lines listed will fill one screen page.
    • Added history-point-at-end-of-anchored-search config variable in inputrc to make the cursor point behave like 4Dos/4NT/TakeCommand when searching forward and backward through command history.
    • Fixed prev history at top of history.
    • Fixed to get the current values of environment variables when needed, rather than always getting the value from whenever clink was started.
    • Fixed coloring directory completions.
    • Fixed menu-complete for \dir and . and ...
    • Fixed slow performance when displaying matches. Readline was calling stat() at least once per match (!!). A new match type field enables faster performance, coloring readonly and hidden file matches, applying filename completion rules only to filenames (vs branch names or other text strings), correct match de-duplication, and more. The lua match APIs can supply the new match type.
    • Fixed inserting a completion to happen as a single undo group.
    • Fixed tilde to map to %USERPROFILE% instead of %APPDATA% on Windows.
  • Typing a directory by itself uses cd /d to change to the directory:
    • Typing a directory with a trailing path separator changes to the directory.
    • Typing ..\ changes to the parent directory.
    • Typing ... or .... etc moves up an extra parent directory level for each extra dot (2 dots move up one parent, 3 dots moves up two parents, etc). A trailing path separator is optional when there are more than 2 dots.
    • Typing - or cd - or chdir - changes to the previous directory.
  • Commands that are new, enhanced, or fixed:
    • Added add-history and remove-history commands (similar to 4Dos/4NT/TakeCommand).
    • Got the menu-complete, menu-complete-backward, and old-menu-complete commands working (they never worked properly before in clink).
      • Also added a corresponding old-menu-complete-backward command for reverse order.
      • All of the *-menu-complete-* commands support wildcards (* and ?).
    • Added clink-show-help command (Alt+H). The help now lists all key bindings, and it shows user-friendly key names (like A-Up or C-x,C-r or C-S-PgUp or A-C-S-F3).
    • Added clink-popup-completions command that shows a popup window listing possible completions. Enter inserts the highlighted completion.
    • Added clink-popup-directories command that shows a popup window listing recent directories. Enter changes to the highlighted directory, or Shift+Enter inserts the highlighted directory in the editing line (or Ctrl+Enter).
    • Added clink-popup-history command that shows a popup window listing command history. Enter executes the highlighted command, or Shift+Enter jumps to the highlighted command in the history (or Ctrl+Enter).
    • Added clink-scroll-lineup, clink-scroll-linedown, clink-scroll-page-up, clink-scroll-page-down, clink-scroll-top, and clink-scroll-bottom commands that do what it looks like they'd do and are bound to the keys it looks like they'd be.
    • Added clink-expand-doskey command (Ctrl+Alt+f) that expands the current line according to the current doskey aliases.
    • Added clink-expand-env-var command (Ctrl+Alt+e) that expands the environment variable at the cursor point.
    • Added clink-exit command (Alt+F4) that exits CMD.
  • Fixed keyboard input issues:
    • Esc is a bindable key now (\e[27;27~).
    • Added more bindable key combinations (run clink echo then press keys to see the key sequence to use in the inputrc file).
    • Ctrl+@ (NUL) didn't work.
    • Ins toggles insert/overwrite mode.
    • Unbound keys are ignored now, instead of inserting gibberish characters (part of the terminal internal key sequence).
    • Fixed input handling so the quoted-insert command can work properly.
    • Fixed Esc while searching.
    • Fixed vi mode (was working in v0.4.9, but not in v1.0.x).
  • Fixed command history issues:
    • The dont_add_to_history_cmds clink setting is a space-delimited list of commands to not add to history.
    • Fixed bleeding between history banks.
    • Fixed uninitialized variable that made history updates intermittently do nothing or corrupt the other history bank.
    • Fixed output from clink history to convert to UTF16 when writing to the console (but write UTF8 when output is redirected).
  • Fixed terminal output issues:
    • Added terminal.emulate clink setting that controls whether clink does VT emulation or passes all ANSI escape codes directly to the console host. For example, this lets the prompt and completion coloring take advantage of more sophisticated ANSI escape codes such as XTerm 256 color and 16 bit color support.
    • Added back support for the prefer-visible-bell config variable.
    • Fixed underline support.
    • Fixed handling for UTF8 output from Readline.
    • Fixed invisible cursor point in lua debugger.
  • Completions:
    • Added match.sort_dirs clink setting that specifies where to sort directories in the list of possible completions: before files, mixed in with files, or after files.
    • Don't attempt completing incomplete UNC paths: at least the \\server\share\ path components are required (for anything shorter the OS APIs are guaranteed to fail, but will fail slowly).
    • Fixed sorting to use Unicode aware locale based sorting (like Windows does) instead of dumb UTF8 byte comparisons.
    • Fixed arbitrary limit on completions (had been limited to 64KB worth of completions).
    • Fixed quoting spaces in completions.
    • Fixed to use the same list as CMD for characters that require quoting.
    • Fixed normalizing UNC paths.
    • Fixed volume relative completions (e.g. x:foo).
  • Fixed UTF8 encoding in various lua functions.
  • Fixed printing stderr output from Readline, lua, and clink.
  • Fixed crashes and other failures when starting clink in 32 bit CMD.
  • Fixed some memory leaks that accumulated with each new line of input.
  • Fixed prompt filtering API to be backward compatible with v0.4.9 scripts.
  • Fixed lua errors from clink set (it neglected to fully initialize clink's lua integration before loading lua scripts).
  • Fixed UTF8 conversion bug that could truncate a string without fully converting it.
  • Fixed serious rampant memory corruption bug in v1.0.x (not present in v0.4.9), which had been causing intermittent malfunctions and data corruption and crashes.
  • Fixed multi-line doskey macros to show the prompt in between lines, like CMD does.
  • Removed the 4096 byte limit on input.
  • Renamed the clink DLL back to what it was in v0.4.x, to fix compile time problems.
  • Other fixed issues:
  • Fixed many other bugs.
