This allows to get terminal size in pixel using `TIOCGWINSZ` ioctl.
Set `.ws_xpixel` using `columns * cell_width` and set `.ws_ypixel` using `rows * cell_height`.
Cell width and height is font width and line spacing, respectively.
- The AutoFill type and hints are no longer hardcoded in `TerminalView` class and `TermuxActivity` layout xml. They are dynamically set to required values before making a manual AutoFill request and reverted back afterwards to default values. The hardcoded value `AUTOFILL_TYPE_TEXT` returned by `getAutofillType()` was causing the AutoFill UI to show on Activity starts, this will return `AUTOFILL_TYPE_NONE` by default now so that AutoFill UI isn't shown automatically.
- The AutoFill importance is no longer hardcoded in `TermuxActivity` layout xml and is returned by `TerminalView` class itself by `getImportantForAutofill()`.
- The AutoFill function in `TermuxActivity` for making a manual AutoFill request is moved to `TerminalView` class. This and moving of hardcoded values to `TerminalView` class mentioned above is done as complete logic of AutoFill should be handled by `TerminalView` class itself and not scattered in various places.
- The Terminal context menu now supports AutoFilling a username. Note that GBoard/Google Password Manager seems to have a bug where it will still show `Pick a saved password` instead of username, even though `AUTOFILL_HINT_USERNAME` is being requested, however it will still AutoFill a username of selected entry correctly.
- Pressing the back button to close the keyboard will also cancel the current manually requested AutoFill request and UI will not show when keyboard is opened again.

In other terminals, such as gnome-terminal, Shift-PgUp and Shift-PgDn
scroll the screen by a full page, rather than a single line. Adjust
termux to match.
This will work for both `SHIFT` extra key and hardware keyboards. The `SHIFT` extra key can be long held to lock it in an enabled state and `PGUP` and `PGDN` keys can be long held to repeat scrolling.
Closes#867
The `copyTextToClipboard()` method has been updated to pass clip label when copying text to clipboard and `getTextFromClipboard()` and `getTextStringFromClipboardIfSet()` methods have been added to get current clipboard.
When calculating the row that is clicked, for mouse tracking
mFontLineSpacingAndAscent was taken into account, but for selection and
URL clicking it wasn't. This adds a common function for calculating the
column and row which does take it into account and use that for all
three.
I'm not quite sure why it's necessary to subtract
mFontLineSpacingAndAscent, but with this calculation the click location
matches the line that is acted on for me with both touch and mouse and
on different font sizes.
It also removes the offset for finger the selection/url used because I
don't think it's common for apps on Android to have such an offset, and
because the mouse tracking did not use such an offset.
This allows you to click/press directly on a URL in the terminal view to
open it. It takes priority over opening the keyboard, so if you click on
a URL it is opened, and if you click anywhere else the keyboard opens
like before.
Currently, if the application in the terminal is tracking the mouse and
you click on a URL, both actions happen. The mouse event is sent to the
application, and the URL is also opened.
To enable support for this, you have to set
`terminal-onclick-url-open=true` in `termux.properties`.
The reason was that mTerminalCursorBlinkerRunnable inner class mEmulator wouldn't get updated to the new mEmulator on session change and would still be using the old session's.
Github Package hosting is considered a private repository since it requires github APIs keys if a hosted library needs to be imported as a dependency. Importing from private repositories is not allowed as per F-Droid policy so termux plugin apps can't import termux libraries as dependencies so hence we move to Jitpack. Check https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/2011#issuecomment-824837387.
Version number of all published libraries from termux-app must be the same.
Importing can be done with the following way.
Add to root level build.gradle
```
allprojects {
repositories {
google()
mavenCentral()
//mavenLocal()
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
```
Add to app module level build.gradle if you want to import `termux-shared`
```
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.termux:termux-shared:0.115'
}
```
Check https://github.com/jitpack/jitpack.io#building-with-jitpack for other details, like including commit or branch level import.
If you are updating the libraries as well and want to test locally, run `./gradlew publishReleasePublicationToMavenLocal` from root directory of termux-app to publish library to local maven repository. You may need to rebuild project before it, library files will be published at `~/.m2/repository/com/github/termux/termux-shared/0.115`. If you want to import the updated library in a project, then uncomment the `mavenLocal()` line in the build.gradle and run sync gradle with project files.
Making changes to library after dependencies have already been cached without incrementing version number may need deleting gradle cache if syncing gradle files doesn't work after publishing changes. Open gradle right sidebar in android studio, then right click on top level entry, then select "Refresh Gradle Dependencies", which will redownload/refresh all dependencies and will take a lot of time. Instead running `find ~/.gradle/caches/ -type d -name "*com.github.termux*" -prune -exec rm -rf "{}" \; -print` and then running gradle sync should be enough.
Using "com.termux" instead of "com.github.termux" will require a DNS TXT record to be added from git.termux.com to https://github.com/termux at termux.com

This `terminal-cursor-style` key can be used to set the terminal cursor style. The user can set a string value to `block` for `■`, `underline` for `_` or `bar` for `|` cursor style. The default value is still `block`. So adding an entry like `terminal-cursor-style=bar` to `termux.properties` file will allow users to change to the `bar` cursor style. After updating the value, termux must be restarted. You can also run `termux-reload-settings` command so that termux loads the updated value, but only new sessions will use the updated value, existing sessions will not be affected unless you Reset them from terminal's long hold options menu `More` -> `Reset` or restart termux activity after double back press to exit.
You can temporarily switch to different cursor styles with (or add to `.bashrc` but resetting will restore default `bar` style):
- block: `echo -e "\033[2 q"`
- underline: `echo -e "\033[4 q"`
- bar: ` echo -e "\033[6 q"`
Closes#2075
Fixed bug where cursor would become invisible when long holding (arrow) keys when editing commands (outside of text editors like nano).
Updated javadocs with info on how cursor blinking works
"Performance Improvements" and removed redundant mRendering check
This `terminal-cursor-blink-rate` key can be used to enable terminal cursor blinking. The user can set an int value between `100` and `2000` which will be used as blink rate in millisecond. The default value is `0`, which disables cursor blinking. So adding an entry like `terminal-cursor-blink-rate=600` to `~/termux.properties` file will make the cursor attempt to blink every 600ms. Running `termux-reload-settings` command will also update the cursor blinking rate instantaneously if changed.
A background thread is used to control the blinking by toggling the cursor visibility and then invalidating the view every x milliseconds set. This will have a performance impact, so use wisely and at your own risk.
If the cursor itself is disabled, which is controlled by whether DECSET_BIT_CURSOR_ENABLED (DECSET 25, DECTCEM), then blinking will be automatically disabled. You can enable the cursor with `tput cnorm` or `echo -e '\e[?25h'` and disable it with `tput civis` or `echo -e '\e[?25l'`.
Note that you can also change the cursor color by adding `cursor` property to `~/colors.properties` file, like `cursor=#FFFFFF` for a white cursor.
The `TermuxPropertyConstants` class has been updated to `v0.9.0`. Check its Changelog sections for info on changes.
Closes#153
This only reverts the versioning login change done in a6ae656c since that caused F-Droid bot and Github Packages to fail to pick up new releases. The versions must be bumped directly in `build.gradle` file in future and not through other files like `gradle.properties`.
The termux plugins should use this library instead of hardcoding "com.termux" values in their source code.
The library can be included as a dependency by plugins and third party apps by including the following line in the build.gradle where x.xxx is the version number, once its published.
`implementation 'com.termux:termux-shared:x.xxx'`
The `TermuxConstants` class has been updated to `v0.17.0`, `TermuxPreferenceConstants` to `v0.9.0` and `TermuxPropertyConstants` to `v0.6.0`. Check their Changelog sections for info on changes.
Some typos and redundant code has also been fixed.
