This `terminal-transcript-rows` key can be used to adjust the terminal transcript rows. The user can set an integer value between `100` and `50000`. The default value is still `2000`. So adding an entry like `terminal-transcript-rows=10000` to `termux.properties` file will allow users to scroll back ~10000 lines of command output. 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.
You can test this with the following, where `70` is number of `x` characters per line and `10001` is the number of lines to print.
`x="$(printf 'x%.0s' {1..70})"; for i in {1..10001}; do echo "$i:$x"; done`
Be advised that using large values may have a performance impact depending on your device capabilities, so use at your own risk.
Closes#2071
TermuxSession, TermuxTask and TermuxSessionClientBase have been moved to termux-shared. They are now not dependent on TermuxService anymore and have become abstract so that they can be called from anywhere. TermuxSession.TermuxSessionClient and TermuxTask.TermuxTaskClient interfaces have been created for callbacks, which the TermuxService now implements.
The TermuxTask now also supports synchronous command execution as well to run shell commands from anywhere for internal use by termux app and its plugins.
TermuxTask now also supports killing the process being run by sending it a SIGKILL. This is used by TermuxService to kill all the TermuxTasks (in addition to TermuxSessions) it manages when it is destroyed, either by user exiting it or by android killing it. Only the tasks that were started by a plugin which **expects** the result back via a pending intent will be killed, but the remaining background tasks will keep on running until the termux app process is killed by android, like by OOM. Check TermuxService.killAllTermuxExecutionCommands() for more details on how TermuxService kills TermuxTasks and TermuxSessions.
Fixed null pointer exception when getting terminal transcript if TerminalEmulator not initialized.
