This refactors a large chunk of the alacritty_terminal API to expose all
data necessary for rendering uniformly through the `renderable_content`
call. This also no longer transforms the cells for rendering by a GUI
but instead just reports the content from a terminal emulation
perspective. The transformation into renderable cells is now done inside
the alacritty crate.
Since the terminal itself only ever needs to know about modified color
RGB values, the configuration for colors was moved to the alacritty UI
code.
This replaces the existing `Deserialize` derive from serde with a
`ConfigDeserialize` derive. The goal of this new proc macro is to allow
a more error-friendly deserialization for the Alacritty configuration
file without having to manage a lot of boilerplate code inside the
configuration modules.
The first part of the derive macro is for struct deserialization. This
takes structs which have `Default` implemented and will only replace
fields which can be successfully deserialized. Otherwise the `log` crate
is used for printing errors. Since this deserialization takes the
default value from the struct instead of the value, it removes the
necessity for creating new types just to implement `Default` on them for
deserialization.
Additionally, the struct deserialization also checks for `Option` values
and makes sure that explicitly specifying `none` as text literal is
allowed for all options.
The other part of the derive macro is responsible for deserializing
enums. While only enums with Unit variants are supported, it will
automatically implement a deserializer for these enums which accepts any
form of capitalization.
Since this custom derive prevents us from using serde's attributes on
fields, some of the attributes have been reimplemented for
`ConfigDeserialize`. These include `#[config(flatten)]`,
`#[config(skip)]` and `#[config(alias = "alias)]`. The flatten attribute
is currently limited to at most one per struct.
Additionally the `#[config(deprecated = "optional message")]` attribute
allows easily defining uniform deprecation messages for fields on
structs.
This commit completes the effort to use config colors for
message bar content by picking red/yellow from user's
colors.normal.{red,yellow} for error/warning messages
instead of fixed colors.
It also removes alacritty_terminal::term::color::RED and
alacritty_terminal::term::color::YELLOW from the alacritty_terminal API,
bumping its version to 0.11.0-dev.
Fixes#4116.
This should reduce the number of times people with fixed cursor colors
run into troubles when existing text is already colored.
Using just the background color as a metric instead of both background
and foreground color should ensure that the cursor still has a clear
shape, since just changing the foreground color for a cursor might be
difficult to see. Always inverting the entire cursor instead of keeping
the fixed foreground color is important to make sure the contrast isn't
messed up.
Fixes#4016.
This adds a new regex search which allows searching the entire
scrollback and jumping between matches using the vi mode.
All visible matches should be highlighted unless their lines are
excessively long. This should help with performance since highlighting
is done during render time.
Fixes#1017.
This takes the latest glutin master to port Alacritty to the EventLoop
2.0 rework.
This changes a big part of the event loop handling by pushing the event
loop in a separate thread from the renderer and running both in
parallel.

The cursor rework introduced a regression where cursor color was always picked
from a config file, rather then using `ansi::NamedColor::Cursor` for this
purpose.
This commit also removes `CursorText` option from `NamedColor` enum,
since we can't speculate with `CursorText` during runtime.

This is a large refactor of the config parsing structure, attempting to
reduce the size of the file a bit by splitting it up into different
modules with more specific purposes.
This also fixes#2279.
