Closes#33858
Changes Shift+Enter in the built-in terminal to send line feed (`\x0a`)
instead of carriage return (`\x0d`), enabling multi-line input in Claude
Code and other terminal applications.
Release Notes:
- Fixed the issue where Claude Code and other multi-line terminal
applications couldn't use Shift+Enter for newlines.
The core change here is the following:
```rust
fn write_to_pty(&self, input: impl Into<Vec<u8>>);
// into
fn write_to_pty(&self, input: impl Into<Cow<'static, [u8]>>);
```
This matches the trait bounds that's used by the Alacritty crate. We are
now allowed to effectively pass `&'static str` instead of always needing
a `String`.
The main benefit comes from making the `to_esc_str` function return a
`Cow<'static, str>` instead of `String`. We save an allocation in the
following instances:
- When the user presses any special key that isn't alphanumerical (in
the terminal)
- When the uses presses any key while a modifier is active (in the
terminal)
- When focusing/un-focusing the terminal
- When completing or undoing a terminal transaction
- When starting a terminal assist
This basically saves us an allocation on **every key** press in the
terminal.
NOTE: This same optimization can be done for **nearly all** keypresses
in the entirety of Zed by changing the signature of the `Keystroke`
struct in gpui. If the Zed team is interested in a PR for it, let me
know.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Reverts the error behavior introduced in #27558. Upper-case keys in
keybindings no longer generate errors, instead they are transformed into
`shift-{KEY}`
e.g. `ctrl-N` becomes `ctrl-shift-n`
The behavior introduced in #27558 where "special" keys such as function
keys, `control`, `shift`, etc. Are parsed case-insensitively is
preserved.
Release Notes:
- Improved how upper-case characters are handled in keybinds. "special"
keys such as the function keys, `control`, `shift`, etc. are now parsed
case-insensitively, so for example `F8`, `CTRL`, `SHIFT` are now
acceptable alternatives to `f8`, `ctrl`, and `shift` when declaring
keybindings. Additionally, upper-case (ascii) characters will now be
converted explicitly to `shift` + the lowercase version of the
character, to match the Vim behavior.
NOTE: Release notes above should replace the release notes from #27558
As part of the recent changes to keyboard support, ime_key is no longer
populated by the IME; but instead by the keyboard.
As part of #20877 I changed some code to assume that falling back to key
was
ok, but this was not ok; instead we need to populate this more similarly
to how
it was done before #20336.
The alternative fix could be to instead of simulating these events in
our own
code to push a fake native event back to the platform input handler.
Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- Fixed a bug where tapping `shift` coudl type "shift" if you had a
binding on "shift shift"
We saw stack traces in our #panic channel pop up that failed on this line:
3330614219/alacritty_terminal/src/event_loop.rs (L323-L324)
With this message:
thread 'PTY reader' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: Os { code: 9, kind: Uncategorized, message: "Bad file descriptor" }'
/Users/administrator/.cargo/git/checkouts/alacritty-afea874b09a502a5/3330614/alacritty_terminal/src/event_loop.rs:324
We don't know how to reproduce the error. It doesn't seem related to the number of open PTY handles,
because `openpty` itself didn't fail. We can only assume that something went wrong between
`openpty` and the setup of the polling.
Since Alacritty itself changed its polling mechanism significantly by switching
from `mio` to `polling` (https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/pull/6846) we upgraded
with the hope that this will fix the bug.
