Added in a validation function which fires before submitting a command enter; found it incredibly irritating to try to open something, hit enter, only to be told I'd selected a directory, and then have to go through the whole process again. (#175)
Introduce a new approach that discriminate coordinates in
points and pixels. Now all the logic from the Lua side and in
rencache is to always use points. The coordinates are converted
to pixels only within the renderer, in the file renderer.c.
In this way the application logic does not need to care about the
scaling of the retina displays.
For non-retina display the scaling between points and pixels is
equal to one so nothing will change.
There is nevertheless a change that leak into the Lua side. The
subpixel coordinates are in sub-pixel, not sub-points so they are
scaled by the retina scaling factor. But no change in the code is
required because the subpixel scaling factor take into account the
retina scaling, when present.
Because the retina scaling factor is not know when the application
starts but only when a window is actually available we introduce a
mechanism to render the font with a given scaling factor only from
the renderer when they are needed. We use therefore FontDesc to
describe the font information but without actually rasterizing the
font at a given scale.
The command in rencache.c (Command struct + variable length text) was
incorrectly sized. As a result some bites at the end of the command payload
were uninitialized and was causing hash to randomly change forcing the
system to redraw many more areas.
Since the text of the command for DRAW_TEXT commands is written beginning
at the offset of the text field we compute the bare size of the command as
offsetof(Command, text) instead of sizeof(Command).
