Winit explicitly states that the window is not focused by default and
the `Focused` event will deliver the state later on.
Also start adding notable changes to alacritty_terminal in its own
CHANGELOG.
Closes#7866.
Instead of manually specifying the oldstable version in all our CI
scripts, it is now pulled from the `Cargo.toml` which simplifies the
update process.
The contributing guide has also been updated to not include the explicit
version and its wording has been loosened a bit to correctly represent
current maintenance practices.
Having a separate branch for each release makes it harder to maintain
without an actual benefit, since every release from the major version
is linear, so creating branches doesn't make any sense.
They also collapse with the tag names leading to ambiguous refs.
This switches Alacritty's default configuration format from yaml to
toml. While yaml is still supported, it is done by converting it to toml
and should be removed entirely in the future.
All existing features were persisted based on my testing. Behavior
should not change much, though `--option` might have slightly different
behavior since the entire line is not interpreted as one line of toml.
A new `alacritty migrate` subcommand has been added which allows
automatic migration from yaml to toml. This also could be used as a
facility to automatically fix configuration file changes in the future.
Closes#6592.
The glutin 0.30.0 update decouples glutin from winit which
provides us with basis for a multithreaded renderer. This
also improves robustness of our configuration picking,
context creation, and surface handling.
As an example we're now able to start on systems without a vsync,
we don't try to build lots of contexts to check if some config works,
and so on.
That also brings us possibility to handle context losses, but that's
a future work.
Fixes#1268.
We've been testing out the pre-release feature of crates.io and there
haven't been any major issues. So this updates the documentation to
recommend publishing to crates.io even before the official release.
This change bumps the version of the `alacritty_terminal` crate to force
it out of sync with the Alacritty application. Since it is a library
that will be published on crates.io, it should be following semver
rather than our binary's release version.
While it would be possible to just keep it at 0.5.0, explicitly
disconnecting it from the Alacritty version should give it a clean
starting-off point and prevent unnecessary confusion. Bumping it to
0.10.0 instead of something like 0.6.0 should allow for a nice gap
between the different versions without being too arbitrary. Changing the
version to 0.1.0 is not an option since decreasing semver version would
likely cause a lot of problems.
While it would be possible to further separate the Alacritty terminal
library from the Alacritty terminal emulator, by renaming it from
`alacritty_terminal` to something different, I don't think that is
necessary or a good idea at the moment. Even though the
`alacritty_terminal` library *can* be used for other terminals, its
primary goal is still to support the Alacritty terminal emulator and I
don't see that changing. So making that clear in its name seems like a
good idea. Since there is no plan to maintain this library separately
from Alacritty, but to keep both tied together, the naming should
reflect this.
This implements a basic mode for navigating inside of Alacritty's
history with keyboard bindings. They're bound by default to vi's motion
shortcuts but are fully customizable. Since this relies on key bindings
only single key bindings are currently supported (so no `ge`, or
repetition).
Other than navigating the history and moving the viewport, this mode
should enable making use of all available selection modes to copy
content to the clipboard and launch URLs below the cursor.
This also changes the rendering of the block cursor at the side of
selections, since previously it could be inverted to be completely
invisible. Since that would have caused some troubles with this keyboard
selection mode, the block cursor now is no longer inverted when it is at
the edges of a selection.
Fixes#262.
This fixes various outdated links pointing to the old jwilm/alacritty
repository.
Since `copypasta` now has its own github repository at
https://github.com/alacritty/copypasta, the sources have been removed
from Alacritty.
This adds a PR template that should remind users to document their
changes in our CHANGELOG, without requiring too much direct interaction
from the user.
The issue template has also been reworked a bit, hopefully making it
easier for people to report bugs, without intruding on them if the
information is irrelevant or providing it is too much effort.
Fixes#3031.
By setting the minimum Rust version and enforcing it with CI, Alacritty
should hopefully make it possible for maintainers to package the
application even on distributions which are not rolling release.
The 1.31.0 target has been chosen here because it's the first version of
the Rust 2018 release. Bumping this version in the future should be
considered to be a breaking change and should only be done with caution
and in consideration of the supported Rust versions of the major
distributions available.
This fixes#2277.
All configuration fields now have fallback values which will be used if
the field is not present. This includes mouse, key bindings and platform
specific differences.
The mouse and key bindings are now filled by default, if the user
rebinds a default mapping, it will be overwritten. To unbind a default
binding, it can be mapped to `chars: ""`.
Since all platform differences can now be correctly handled by the
`src/config/mod.rs` code, it's no longer necessary to maintain separate
configuration files, so the `alacritty_macos.yml` and
`alacritty_windows.yml` have been deleted.
Fixes#40.
Fixes#1923.
