It make sense to not put the initial '/' in the filename as the name
is relative to the top directory it belongs to.
By removing the the initial '/' in the filename we can re-introduce the
variable
core.project_files
to stay compatible with standard Lite. The project_files variable will
always point to the files table of the first entry of
core.project_directories.
With the new behavior when moving right and triggering a scroll in the
right direction a subsequent movement left do not longer triggers a
scrolling to the left.
The scrolling to the left happens only when needed for the visibility of
the current position.
In other terms with the old behavior the scrolling was purely a function
of the position and was adjusted even when not strictly needed for the
visibility of the cursor.
Now the scrolling is no longer a pure function of the position but it
has a "memory" behavior. The scrolling will be adjusted only if needed
to accommodate the position of the cursor.
Reduce also the width of the margin when the scrolling will be
triggered and calculate as a function of the font character width.
With the modification now Lite behaves like the other editors. In
addition the selection of text with the mouse is much more easy when
a scrolling of the line is needed.
Adapted from contribute rxi/lite-plugins but changed to avoid restarting
the application when switching project.
Current problem:
- the reload of the treeview take some time without any feedback for the
user
Create the user's config init file if lite user's config directory does
not exists.
No longer use the awkward package.searchers but instead add user's
config dir at the end of package path.
It basically works by setting the data directory to
$prefix/share/lite-xl
where $prefix is determined so that $prefix/bin corresponds to EXEDIR.
The packages 'user' and 'user.*' are loaded from the directory
'$HOME/.config/lite-xl'.
The problem was that when the editor had no events the cursor was not
blinking because the event loop was blocking on wait_event.
Now we no longer calls wait_event without a timeout if the windows has
the focus. When the window has the focus the timeout is set to 1 / fps
so that the cursor can blinks.
In addition we react to the "focus lost" event to ensure the documents
are redrawn without the cursor.
