Instead of implicitly copying whatever you select, and pasting when you
middle-click, let's have traditional copy and paste actions bound to
Ctrl+Shift+C and Ctrl+Shift+V respectively.
Instead of quitting the application immediately when the pty gives an
EOF, fire an on_command_exit hook so the TerminalWidget client can
decide for himself what to do.
Instead, have TerminalWidget provide an on_title_change hook.
This allows embedders to decide for themselves what to do if we receive
a "set terminal title" escape sequence.
When embedding a TerminalWidget, you might not want it to automatically
update its own size policy based on the exact terminal buffer size.
This behavior is now passed as a flag to the TerminalWidget constructor
which makes it behave nicely both inside HackStudio and in Terminal.
WindowServer was led to believe that the Terminal window had an alpha
channel that had to be respected by the compositor. This caused us to
always consider it as non-opaque when culling dirty rects in compose.
GWindow::~GWindow() deletes the main widget, assuming it was
allocated with new; this is what all other applications do,
so heap-allocate the terminal widget as well even though it's
not necessary in this case.
This API was returning a "const char*" and it was unclear who took care
of the underlying memory. Returning a String makes that obvious.
Also make sure we close the /etc/passwd file when we're done with it.
Now that we support more than 2 clients per shared buffer, we can use them
for window icons. I didn't do that previously since it would have made the
Taskbar process unable to access the icons.
This opens up some nice possibilities for programmatically generated icons.
This behavior and API was extremely counter-intuitive since our default
behavior was for applications to never exit after you close all of their
windows.
Now that we exit the event loop by default when the very last GWindow is
deleted, we don't have to worry about this.
You now have to pass an Orientation to the GSlider constructor. It's not
possible to change the orientation after construction.
Added some vertical GSliders to the WidgetGallery demo for testing. :^)
GWindow::move_to_front() can now be used to move a window to the top of
the window stack.
We use this in Terminal to bring the settings window to the front if it
already exists when it's requested, in case it's hiding behind something.
Use this in Terminal to tell the window server to not bother with the alpha
channel in the backing store if we're running without transparency.
Semi-transparent terminals look neat but they slow everything down, so this
keeps things fast while making it easy to switch to the flashy mode. :^)
