To make sure that all error and information reporting to the user is
unified, all instances of `print!`, `eprint!`, `println!` and
`eprintln!` have been removed and replaced by logging.
When `RUST_LOG` is not specified, the default Alacritty logger now also
prints to both the stderr and a log file. The log file is only created
when a message is written to it and its name is printed to stdout the
first time it is used.
Whenever a warning or an error has been written to the log file/stderr,
a message is now displayed in Alacritty which points to the log file
where the full error is documented.
The message is cleared whenever the screen is cleared using either the
`clear` command or the `Ctrl+L` key binding.
To make sure that log files created by root don't prevent normal users
from interacting with them, the Alacritty log file is `/tmp/Alacritty-$PID.log`.
Since it's still possible that the log file can't be created, the UI
error/warning message now informs the user if the message was only
written to stderr. The reason why it couldn't be created is then printed
to stderr.
To make sure the deletion of the log file at runtime doesn't create any
issues, the file is re-created if a write is attempted without the file
being present.
To help with debugging Alacritty issues, a timestamp and the error
level are printed in all log messages.
All log messages now follow this format:
[YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM] [LEVEL] Message
Since it's not unusual to spawn a lot of different terminal emulators
without restarting, Alacritty can create a ton of different log files.
To combat this problem, logfiles are removed by default after
Alacritty has been closed. If the user wants to persist the log of a
single session, the `--persistent_logging` option can be used. For
persisting all log files, the `persistent_logging` option can be set in
the configuration file
Updated the `Cargo.toml` file and added a `package.metadata.deb`
subsection to define how to build a debian "deb" install file using
`cargo deb`. This will allow debian/ubuntu users to install `alacritty`
using their system's package manager. It also will make it easier to
provide pre-built binaries for those systems.
Also fixed a stray debug line in the bash autocomplete script that was
writting to a tempfile.
* Add manpage
Adds a basic manpage that was autogenerated with `help2man` and then
slightly adjusted with information from the README.md and better
formatting.
* Add zsh completions
Add completions for the zsh shell. These should be complete and even
allow completion of the command inside `--command` and `-e`.
* Add bash completions
The bash completions are almost on the same level as the zsh
completions. The only little thing the bash completions do not do is
complete inside of `--command` and `-e`, instead bash just stops
completion after these options.
* Update readme with manpage and completions
Added the install instructions for the manpage and completions to the
README.md.
Also tweaked the current readme a slight bit because the build section
was structured in a slightly confusing way.
