here's a short list of things i think we can do in the short to medium term to |
|
make it a first-class terminal: |
|
|
|
[ ] elm_scroller_content_min_limit not working on behavior scroller :( |
|
[ ] finish off remote http fetch code for media |
|
[ ] filenames is `xxx' quotes not recognized (as ` different to ') |
|
[ ] blink and blink2 attributes need to be supported |
|
[ ] dnd text (to/from terminal) |
|
[ ] general input mode handling improvements (keypad, other key |
|
input, etc.) |
|
[ ] selection of themes |
|
[ ] selection of background "wallpapers" (and support them at all - |
|
doesn't right now - should support regular images, animated gifs, |
|
and edje files) |
|
[ ] scrollbar (elm scroller that mirrors the term smart size/position |
|
- gives us fingerscroll - layer on top of term smart, stick |
|
invisible rect inside to track for scrolling etc.) |
|
[ ] selection mode mirrors entry style for touch displays (handle |
|
on_hold flags, etc.) |
|
[ ] selection off edge scrolls in that direction (as per selection |
|
mode too if it gets NEAR an edge) |
|
[ ] selection should become single edje object so it can be styled nicely |
|
[ ] selection should have handles on the start/end so u can drag and |
|
change its size once there |
|
[ ] improve selection text extraction logic so its reliable |
|
[ ] fast text/regex searching similar to urxvt |
|
[ ] search in terminal (and keep highlighting until search cleared) |
|
[ ] single key combo to go into terminal command mode for search etc. |
|
[ ] logging of terminal to file |
|
[ ] number recognition with base conversion |
|
[ ] dnd of file to term offer to past path, with escapes or paste file |
|
content (if text) with or without escaping |
|
|
|
things in future to make it totally kick-butt: |
|
|
|
[ ] "tabs" (multiple terminals inside a window) with a nice selector |
|
that looks like e17's wallpaper2 selector a bit :) |
|
[ ] track child process stats like cwd etc. and when launching a new |
|
"tab" or shell use the last child process cwd to put the shell |
|
inot |
|
[ ] track mem and iowait and cpu stats for child procs and their |
|
children and display them as little overlays in the terminal so u |
|
know if your "grep -r /" is cpu or io bound and what is eating up |
|
all your cpu cycles or causing a tonne of hdd interrupts etc. - |
|
send results of these stats to theme with messages much like |
|
cpufreq, battery etc. do in e17 so theme can display as bars, |
|
dials or anything it likes (text, led's etc. too). |
|
[ ] tiling layout within 1 window to lay out multiple terms in a |
|
flexible split/merge column/row grid setup |
|
[ ] remember tile layouts and be able to restore them and at least as |
|
much of child processes as the term can manage reasonably reliably |
|
[ ] split it out into a library - maybe just as part of elementary and |
|
make a terminal widget where you can specify your own read/write |
|
funcs for the term fd etc. so u can make a custom bit of code that |
|
uses the terminal widget as if it were stdin/out but just as |
|
loopback within the app (ie don't exec process - just create pty |
|
and offer read/write to/from it) |
|
[ ] start supporting some of the crazy escape codes that let you |
|
inline images into terminals or just create our own extensions and |
|
then start making replacement "std command" wrappers/replacements |
|
that are prepended to $PATH that can do the right thing when u do |
|
"ls" - i see a list of files and if some are images or documents - |
|
u see thumbnails too. if u cat a jpeg.. u see it. if u cat a url |
|
or html file.. up comes an inline web browser, provide nicer |
|
visual "progessbars" and modified tools like wget that use these |
|
escapes etc.
