+.I input->type +is used to detech which type of input was parsed. +Currently possible values are: +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_NONE +A special value to mark that the input was either +discard or not yet completed. The function only +reads at most once so input may be complete (input +can also be bufferd, in which case it will not +read at all). +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_KEYPRESS +Normal key press. The pressed key will be stored in +.I input->key +and has a value from +.IR "enum libterminput_key" ; +these values are listed above and have fairly self +explanatory names; however there are three special +values to take note of: +.RS 7 +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_SYMBOL +The key press generated text (or a paste was made +without bracketed paste enabled), which is stored +in +.I input->keypress.symbol +as a NUL-terminated string. For key presses (and +pastes) that generate multiple character-text, one +event will be generated per character. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_TAB +.TQ +.B LIBTERMINPUT_BACKTAB +Backtab will be reported as shift+tab unless the +.B LIBTERMINPUT_SEPARATE_BACKTAB +flag has been set with the +.BR libterminput_set_flags (3) +function. +.PP +The modifiers are stored, as a bitwise OR of +modifiers, in +.IR input->keypress.mods . +Recognised modifiers are +.BR LIBTERMINPUT_SHIFT , +.BR LIBTERMINPUT_META , +and +.BR LIBTERMINPUT_CTRL , +however, if the terminal support other modifiers, +they may also appear in +.IR input->keypress.mods . +.B NB! +.IR input->keypress.mods +may be non-zero even if +.I input->key +is +.BR LIBTERMINPUT_SYMBOL . +This can happen for example if meta or control was +held down. It is even possible that +.B LIBTERMINPUT_SHIFT +is set, however this is unlikely, and exceptionally +unlikely for any other symbol than the space character. +Information about shift if normally not sent for +normal text keys as shift is used to select which +character on the key generate. + +Some events, namely scrolling with the mouse, may +generate an event which as marked as repeated. This +information is stored in +.I input->keypress.times +and may be ignored and is usually 1, But the application +may choose to inspect this value, in doing so, it shall +ignore the next +.I input->keypress.times-1 +events. +.RE +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_BRACKETED_PASTE_START +Marks the beginning of a bracketed paste. +The application does not need to do anything, +but may choose to defer processing of the +pasted text until the end has been reached. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_BRACKETED_PASTE_END +Marks the beginning of a bracketed paste. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_TEXT +The input is text that has been pasted. +The paste may be incomplete. +.B LIBTERMINPUT_BRACKETED_PASTE_END +marks the end of the paste; however even so, a +terminal may choose to break up a paste in order +to deal with pasted escape characters, in particalur +where it looks like the escape esquence that is +used to mark the end of a bracketed paste. The +application shall treat pasted escape characters +as any other character. + +The pasted text will be stored in +.IR input->text.bytes . +Be aware that this is not a NUL-terminated string, +rather, it's length is stored in +.IR input->text.nbytes . +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_MOUSEEVENT +Mouse tracking input. The location of the mouse +is stored in +.I input->mouseevent.x +and +.I input->mouseevent.y +(normally this would indicate the character cell +and the cell in top left corner would have the +value 1 for both fields). + +The button that has been pressed or released is +stored in +.I input->mouseevent.button +and the for a mouse motion event one of the held +done buttons (it is arbitrary which) will be stored +in this field, if any. Possible values are: +.RS 7 +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_NO_BUTTON +This will be used for a mouse motion event where +the mouse button is held down. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_BUTTON1 +The left mouse button for a right-handed setup or +the right mouse button for a left-handed setup; +that is, it is the primary mouse button. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_BUTTON2 +The middle mouse button, which is usually a scroll wheel. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_BUTTON3 +The right mouse button for a right-handed setup or +the left mouse button for a left-handed setup; +that is, it is the secondary mouse button. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_SCROLL_UP +The user scrolled up with the mouse; this is reported +as a mouse press event even if it is actually a scroll +event. The terminal shall not send a corresponding +release event. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_SCROLL_DOWN +The user scrolled down with the mouse; this is reported +as a mouse press event even if it is actually a scroll +event. The terminal shall not send a corresponding +release event. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_SCROLL_LEFT +The user scrolled leftwards with the mouse. The developer +is not aware of any standisation of whether this shall +behandled by the terminal in the same manner as a scroll +up/down even, or as a normal mouse button press/release event; +however for trackpads would be unable to detect a release +event, so it will probably be handled as a scroll event. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_SCROLL_RIGHT +The user scrolled rightwards with the mouse. The developer +is not aware of any standisation of whether this shall +behandled by the terminal in the same manner as a scroll +up/down even, or as a normal mouse button press/release event; +however for trackpads would be unable to detect a release +event, so it will probably be handled as a scroll event. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_XBUTTON1 +The first extended button (X1), usually used to go backwards. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_XBUTTON2 +The second extended button (X2), usually used to go forwards. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_XBUTTON3 +The third extended button (X3). You probably don't have this one. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_XBUTTON4 +The fourth extended button (X4). You probably don't have this one. +.RE + +The held down modifiers will be stored a bitwise +OR of modifiers in +.IR input->mouseevent.mods . +The modifiers than currently can appear are +.BR LIBTERMINPUT_SHIFT , +.BR LIBTERMINPUT_META , +and +.BR LIBTERMINPUT_CTRL . + +What type of mouse action has occurred is stored in +.IR input->mouseevent.event ; +possible values are: +.RS 7 +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_PRESS +A mouse button was pressed. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_RELEASE +A mouse button was released. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_MOTION +The mouse moved. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_HIGHLIGHT_INSIDE +Highlight ended inside of selected region. +.I input->mouseevent.mods +and +.I input->mouseevent.button +will be set to 0 and 1, but should be ignored +as this information will not be sent by the terminal. +.TP +.B LIBTERMINPUT_HIGHLIGHT_OUTSIDE +Highlight ended outside of selected region. +.I input->mouseevent.mods +and +.I input->mouseevent.button +will be set to 0 and 1, but should be ignored +as this information will not be sent by the terminal. + +For this event, +.IR input->mouseevent.start_x , +.IR input->mouseevent.start_y , +.IR input->mouseevent.end_x , +and +.IR input->mouseevent.end_y +will also be set to indicate the region selected by +the application. +.RE +.SH RETURN VALUE +The +.BR libterminput_read () +function returns 0 or 1 upon successful completion, +1 if there was input, 0 if the input closed (or an +empty packet was sent, such as on control+d); +otherwise the +.BR libterminput_read () +function returns +.B -1 +and set +.I errno +it indicate the error. + +.SH ERRORS +The +.BR libterminput_read () +function may fail for any reason specified for the +.BR read (3) +function. + +.SH EXAMPLES +None. + +.SH APPLICATION USAGE +None. + +.SH RATIONALE +None. + +.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS +None. + +.SH NOTES +None. + +.SH BUGS +None. + +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR libterminput_set_flags (3) diff --git a/libterminput_set_flags.3 b/libterminput_set_flags.3 index bce609d..6b79998 100644 --- a/libterminput_set_flags.3 +++ b/libterminput_set_flags.3 @@ -91,7 +91,7 @@ The .BR libterminput_set_flags () and .BR libterminput_clear_flags () -functions returns 0 upon successful completion; +functions return 0 upon successful completion; otherwise the .BR libterminput_set_flags () and @@ -103,7 +103,7 @@ and set it indicate the error. .SH ERRORS -Currnet versions of the +Current versions of the .BR libterminput_set_flags () and .BR libterminput_clear_flags () |
