This fixes a couple of subtle rectangle select behaviors:
* Corrects how selection rolls over when crossing the x-boundary; this
was mentioned in #1021, this properly corrects it so both sides of the
x-boundary do not share characters.
* Corrects a minor quirk in the selection of initial cells in a
selection - this can be more readily observed when selecting a single
line with rectangle select. To correct this, we only use the x axis
when calculating this instead of both x and y.
This fixes an issue where selections from the bottom-right to the
top-left (or top-left to bottom-right), in addition to some single-line
rectangle selections, were not working.
This works by handling situations where only one of the x or y
axes in the start or end points may need to be flipped to get the
correct top-left or bottom-right of a selection. We call these kinds of
orientations "mirrored", like you were looking in a mirror.
This also adds a small bit of logic that keeps these kinds of motions in
rectangle selection from selecting the character before or after it.
This has the current side-effect of anchoring a rectangle selection to
the original characters if you change directions during the selection,
something I will look at in a later commit.
Finally, this also removes rectangle select on double-click. I thought
this might be a good idea, but word select in rectangle mode really
does not work (the effect seems pretty erratic), and it's not
implemented in Kitty either.
Fixes#1008.
Fixes#965
When processing keybindings that closed the surface (`close_surface`,
`close_window`), the surface and associated runtime structures would be
freed so we could segfault.
This PR introduces a new enum result for input events (only key for now)
that returns whether an event resulted in a close. In this case, callers
can properly return immediately and avoid writing to deallocated memory.
Fixes#991
This changes the default embedded font from Fira to JetBrains Mono. This
only affects users who don't specify or font AND Ghostty can't find
another default font to use on their system.
This is one part an aesthetic choice: I've grown to personally like
JetBrains Mono more than Fira, and I think I have the right to change
the defaults ;)
But this is also partly because of #991: FiraCode contains glyphs for
symbolic ranges. This may not be Fira official... I think I may have
used a Nerd font patched one and that may be the issue. So I don't want
to blame the Fira font project. BUT, we have to replace the ttf in our
project and since I've been meaning to switch to JB Mono I just did that
now.
Fixes#882
We previously had a hardcoded limit of 16 codepoints. In #882, a user
pointed out that in Chinese, is reasonable for a preedit input to be
longer than this.
To avoid any future issues, this commit moves to a heap-allocated
variant. Preedits aren't that common, they aren't high throughput, and
they're generally pretty small, so using a heap allocation is fine. The
memory is owned by the person who set it.
If mouse events are active and the cursor is hovered over a link,
pressing Shift does not change the cursor to a pointer, but to the text
selection shape, until the cursor is moved again. The pointer shape
should have higher priority over the text selection shape when the
cursor is hovered over a pointer.
This adds rectangle select mode; when dragging with ctrl+alt (or
super+alt on MacOS), this allows you to select a rectangular region of
the terminal instead of the full start-end points of the buffer.
In practice, the primary and selection clipboards are treated exactly
the same, but this allows OSC 52 sequences to use either 's' or 'p' as
the clipboard target.
Fixes#872
In #867 we fixed macos-option-as-alt, but unfortunately AppKit ALSO does
some translation so some behaviors were not working correctly.
Specifically, when you had macos-option-as-alt set, option+e would
properly send `esc+e` to the pty but it would ALSO set the dead key
state for "`" since AppKit was still translating the option key.
This commit introduces a function to strip alt when necessary from the
translation modifiers used at the AppKit layer, preventing this
behavior.
This regressed sometime -- I can't find the exact commit -- but in any
case I've moved this handling directly into the KeyEncoder so we can
unit test it and prevent future regressions.
Fixes#741
This completely reimplements double-click-and-drag logic for selecting
by word. The previous implementation was horribly broken. See #741 for
all the details.
The implemented logic now is:
* A double-click initiates a select-by-word selection mechanism.
- A double-click may start on a word or whitespace
- If the initial double-click is on a word, that word is immediately selected.
- If the initial double-click is on whitespace, the whitespace is not selected.
* A "word" is determined by a non-boundary character meeting a boundary character.
- A boundary character is `NUL` ` ` (space) `\t` `'` `"`
- This list is somewhat arbitrary to make the terminal "feel" good.
- Cell SGR states (fg/bg, bold, italic, etc.) have no effect on boundary determination or selection logic.
* As the user drags _on the same line_:
- No selection change occurs until the cursor is over a new word. Whitespace change does nothing.
- When selection is over a new word, that entire word added to the selection.
* When the user drags _up_ one or more lines:
- If the cursor is over whitespace, all lines from the selection point up to but not including the cursor line are selected.
* This selection is done in accordance to the previous rules.
- If the cursor is over a word, the word becomes the beginning of the selection.
- The end of the selection in all cases is the first word at or before the initial double-click point.
* When the user drags _down_ one or more lines:
- The same logic as _up_ but swap the "beginning" and "end" of selection terminology.
* With this logic, the behavior of Ghostty has the following invariants:
- Whitespace is never selected unless it is between two selected words
- Selection implies at least one word is highlighted
- The initial double-click point marks the beginning or end of a selection, never the middle.
