133fb9871c Fixed buggy and broken KBKEY_ENCODE and KBKEY_DECODE macros. 2012-02-10 13:28:28 +01:00

ecc3114f2a Refactored the system to use the new Terminal interface.
This will allow development of a better terminal providing stdin.

Added new system calls settermmode(2) and gettermmode(2) declared in
<sys/termmode.h>. They allow querying and changing the current mode of
terminals (enabling raw keyboard data, signal handling, line buffering,
UTF-8 encoding stdin, and more). However, all that is unsupported by the
current terminal device driver.

Added KBKEY_ENCODE and KBKEY_DECODE macros to <sys/keycodes.h> which allows
encoding the kbkey format in UTF-32 characters.

ead0e1523f Refactored the kernel keyboard API, but kept system calls compatible.
Caps lock now works as caps lock, not as shift lock.

This new design will allow implementing a working tty, such that stdin is
the only way to access the keyboard, instead of the current hacky way of
using a special system call to read from the keyboard.

Added a new system header file <sys/keycodes.h> defining the constants for
every key on the keyboard. This will be used in future APIs.

The main change is to split the keyboard driver into a class that reads
from the keyboard, while another class handles the translation into
printable characters (if possible). This allows a terminal driver based
on logical key presses and printable characters, instead of a terminal
driver based only on unicode-ish codes.
