* 3745Kartik K. Agaram2017-02-071-0/+642
| | | | | | | Stop trying to create a new layer showing how we minimize prints. Stephen's suggestion is to create a data structure that encapsulates instructions to `insert-at-cursor` for either just printing a character to screen or rendering everything. Let's try that at some point.
* 3738 - start on new edit/ layer: minimizing printsKartik K. Agaram2017-02-041-642/+0

* 3705 - switch to tested file-system primitivesKartik K. Agaram2016-12-111-40/+41
|
* 3700Kartik K. Agaram2016-11-281-2/+2
| | | | | | Reorder products of some functions in the edit/ and sandbox/ apps. My recent realization: always return 'real' products before ones that just indicate an ingredient is mutable.
* 3699Kartik K. Agaram2016-11-281-2/+2
| | | | | Delete some obsolete /same-as-ingredient attributes. We should always let Mu deduce those at this point.
* 3697Kartik K. Agaram2016-11-271-13/+2
| | | | | | Decouple programming environment initialization from rendering. This helps make clear that we only need the width from screen during initialization.
* 3696Kartik K. Agaram2016-11-271-2/+2
| | | | | | Decouple editor initialization from rendering to screen. This hugely simplifies the header of 'new-editor' and makes clear that it was only using the screen for rendering.
* 3565Kartik K. Agaram2016-10-231-1/+1
| | | | | | Cleaning up the console interfaces before we start changing the socket interfaces to look like them. Reading from sockets need to be non-blocking just like reading from the console.
* 3552Kartik K. Agaram2016-10-221-15/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stop requiring jump instructions to explicitly provide a ':label' type for jump targets. This has been a source of repeated confusion for my students: a) They'd add the ':label' to the label definition rather than the jump target (label use) b) They'd spend time thinking about whether the initial '+' prefix was part of the label name. In the process I cleaned up a couple of things: - the space of names is more cleanly partitioned into labels and non-labels (clarifying that '_' and '-' are non-label prefixes) - you can't use label names as regular variables anymore - you can infer the type of a label just from its name
* 3490Kartik K. Agaram2016-10-091-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Redo commit 3457. Basically there were 3 unicode characters we changed back then: solid horizontal line: 9473 -> 9472 fuzzy horizontal line: 9480 -> 9548 fuzzy vertical line: 9482 -> 9550 The solid horizontal line has no issues, so we just redo it here. For the other two, we'll perform the substitution only when rendering html. That gives us the best of both worlds: the scenario screens render right in html, and alt-tabbing continues to be snappy when running the edit/ app.
* 3489Kartik K. Agaram2016-10-081-27/+27
| | | | | | | | | | Revert commit 3457, where I switched the unicode characters used in the edit/ app to something that doesn't render double-wide in html. It turns out that the new unicode characters made iTerm2 sluggish in alt-tabbing between windows. (Commit 3488 only fixed the screen-clearing issue.) I haven't reverted the html files. I'm going to redo commit 3457 next so the html files continue to render like they do now.
* 3457Kartik K. Agaram2016-10-061-27/+27
| | | | | Switch around some unicode characters in the edit/ app so that it renders more cleanly in html (with monospace fonts).
* 3445Kartik K. Agaram2016-10-061-14/+14
| | | | | | | Ugly that we didn't need 'screen' to provide a type in scenarios (because assume-screen expands to a definition of 'screen') but we did need a type for 'console'. Just never require types for special names in scenarios.
* 3429 - standardize Mu scenariosKartik K. Agaram2016-09-281-41/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | A long-standing problem has been that I couldn't spread code across 'run' blocks because they were separate scopes, so I've ended up making them effectively comments. Running code inside a 'run' block is identical in every way to simply running the code directly. The 'run' block is merely a visual aid to separate setup from the component under test. In the process I've also standardized all Mu scenarios to always run in a local scope, and only use (raw) numeric addresses for values they want to check later.

* 3391 - type abbreviations everywhereKartik K. Agaram2016-09-171-135/+135
| | | | | | | | | Well, almost. I can't use them in some places in C++ where I'm just creating a temporary reagent without passing it through transforms. Like in some unit tests. I can't use them in memory-should-contain. And there's one remaining bug: I can't use abbreviations in a couple of places in 075channel.mu.
* 3341Kartik K. Agaram2016-09-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | Process type abbreviations in function headers. Still a couple of places where doing this causes strange errors. We'll track those down next.
* 3337 - first use of type abbreviations: textKartik K. Agaram2016-09-121-17/+17
| | | | | In the process I've uncover a couple of situations we don't support type abbreviations yet. They're next.
* 3067Kartik K. Agaram2016-06-251-62/+0

* 3053 - keep cursor stable on resizeKartik K. Agaram2016-06-121-1/+85
| | | | | As much as possible; if the cursor moves off screen, it still resets to top of screen.
* 3052 - make edit/ render functions higher-orderKartik K. Agaram2016-06-121-19/+19
| | | | | | This required the fix of 3051 to first-class recipe support, and will next enable us to keep the cursor from moving in response to resize events.
* 2981 - sandbox buttons implemented in edit/Kartik K. Agaram2016-05-191-0/+2
|
* 2975Kartik K. Agaram2016-05-191-4/+4
| | | | Clean up this helper before we start redoing sandbox menubars.
* 2864 - replace all address:shared with just addressKartik K. Agaram2016-04-241-62/+62
| | | | | | | Now that we no longer have non-shared addresses, we can just always track refcounts for all addresses. Phew!
* 2861 - 'maybe-convert' no longer returns addressKartik K. Agaram2016-04-231-13/+13
|
* 2853 - purge get-address from edit/ appKartik K. Agaram2016-04-221-27/+28
| | | | Phew!
* 2782 - directly use string literals everywhereKartik K. Agaram2016-03-141-4/+2
|
* 2735 - define recipes using 'def'Kartik K. Agaram2016-03-081-13/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | I'm dropping all mention of 'recipe' terminology from the Readme. That way I hope to avoid further bike-shedding discussions while I very slowly decide on the right terminology with my students. I could be smarter in my error messages and use 'recipe' when code uses it and 'function' otherwise. But what about other words like ingredient? It would all add complexity that I'm not yet sure is worthwhile. But I do want separate experiences for veteran programmers reading about Mu on github and for people learning programming using Mu.
* 2716 - more holes in immutability checksKartik K. Agaram2016-02-261-3/+3
| | | | | We're still not done. Layer 60 doesn't yet handle variables in surrounding spaces. There's probably other issues..
* 2707Kartik K. Agaram2016-02-251-2/+0

* 2590 - support scrolling through sandboxesKartik K. Agaram2016-01-221-5/+6
|
* 2586 - show first sandbox with error in statusKartik K. Agaram2016-01-221-0/+3
|
* 2576 - distinguish allocated addresses from othersKartik K. Agaram2016-01-191-64/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the one major refinement on the C programming model I'm planning to introduce in mu. Instead of Rust's menagerie of pointer types and static checking, I want to introduce just one new type, and use it to perform ref-counting at runtime. So far all we're doing is updating new's interface. The actual ref-counting implementation is next. One implication: I might sometimes need duplicate implementations for a recipe with allocated vs vanilla addresses of the same type. So far it seems I can get away with just always passing in allocated addresses; the situations when you want to pass an unallocated address to a recipe should be few and far between.
* 2548 - teach 'print' to print integersKartik K. Agaram2015-12-281-8/+16
| | | | | | | | | | Still can't print non-integer numbers, so this is a bit hacky. The big consequence is that you can't print literal characters anymore because of our rules about how we pick which variant to statically dispatch to. You have to save to a character variable first. Maybe I can add an annotation to literals..
* rest of edit/ fixedKartik K. Agaram2015-12-151-5/+5
| | | | No more bugs; phew.
* 2468 - overload print-character as just 'print'Kartik K. Agaram2015-11-211-11/+11
|
* 2467 - rename 'string' to 'text' everywhereKartik K. Agaram2015-11-211-7/+7
| | | | | | | | Not entirely happy with this. Maybe we'll find a better name. But at least it's an improvement. One part I *am* happy with is renaming string-replace to replace, string-append to append, etc. Overdue, now that we have static dispatch.
* 2451 - drop zoom/maximize featureKartik K. Agaram2015-11-151-125/+0
| | | | | | | | | I notice that it isn't working perfectly; after maximize/unmaximize the editor stops wrapping text, like it still thinks the editor is maximized. We don't even use this feature anymore, do we? Just delete it rather than bother debugging.
* 2371 - layer 5 of editKartik K. Agaram2015-11-051-1/+1
|
* 2370 - layers 1-4 of edit are backKartik K. Agaram2015-11-051-62/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | One nice consequence of all my deduction of reply ingredients is that I can insert the same fragment into recipes with different headers, and everything works as long as reply instructions are implicitly deduced. One thing I had to fix to make this work was to move reply-deduction out of rewrite rules and turn it into a first-class transform, so that it happens after tangling. I'm glad to see the back of that hack inside <scroll-down>.
* 2309Kartik K. Agaram2015-10-281-32/+32

* 2260 - start tracing by depth rather than labelKartik K. Agaram2015-10-061-6/+6
| | | | Now we can collect all traces, just modulating the depth.
* 2216Kartik K. Agaram2015-09-291-1/+0
|
* 2206 - fix missing ingredientsKartik K. Agaram2015-09-261-2/+2
| | | | | How the heck was this working until now? There must be redundant moves. And was I clobbering test data?
* 2182Kartik K. Agaram2015-09-121-1/+1
|
* 2172 - 'main' for 'mu edit' running just layer 1Kartik K. Agaram2015-09-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Takes the text to render inside the editor on the commandline: $ ./mu edit/001-editor.mu -- abcdef Layer 1 has no interactivity. Just shows the text you pass in on the commandline, wrapping as you would expect. Press any key to exit.
* 2166Kartik K. Agaram2015-09-051-15/+2
|
* 2163Kartik K. Agaram2015-09-051-9/+14
| | | | | | | | `render-string` (and `render-code-string`; ugh) should start a new line after, not before, like everybody else. I've been meaning to fix this for a long time, but now I have to, to move the warnings fields out of early layers.
* 2162Kartik K. Agaram2015-09-051-16/+2
|
* 2161Kartik K. Agaram2015-09-051-8/+8
| | | | | Starting on making the basic programming environment oblivious to warnings. That should come later.
