It is reported that the built-in lua function os.remove(path) does
not removes empty directories on windows. To fix this a system.rmdir
function is introduced that calls a native win32 function.
Also common.rm(path, recursively) was added which wraps system.rmdir()
to easily delete an entire folder with all its contents.
Add a renderer.font's method "copy" to clone the font object
by specifying an optional new size. In the size is not given
the size of the original object is used.
Should fulfill the request from issue #288.
The method RootView:on_mouse_pressed was copied in the contextmenu plugin with
a small modification to intercept the mouse clicks of the active view.
This approach is problematic because a relatively large portion of code is
duplicated.
We introduced a function named RootView.on_view_mouse_pressed to let plugins
like contextmenu intercepts mouse clicks in the active area without duplicating
the function RootView:on_mouse_pressed.
Move the function mkdirp into common to be generally available.
Use the new common.mkdirp from create_user_directory() from
core/init.lua replacing previous parent directory creation code
within the function.
The previous mkdirp function did not work on Windows where
absolute paths starts with a drive letter. The code from
create_user_directory() did not have this problem but was wrong
in the way it was creating the nested directories.
The new implementation in common.mkdirp fix both problems.
Groups together consecutive mouse move events like done in core.step()
lua function but on the C side.
It does not introduce any meaningful speedup but it theory is more efficient and
simplifies the Lua code.
The simplification of the Lua code alone is enough to justify this change?
* allow nested directories to be created
* fix / be turned into //
* refactor error handling
* refactor path splitting and mkdir calls
If a path exists it will now return immediately.
* fix typo
* remove possible trailing empty string
* fix bugs with path check
