Here are some more details about mouse event handling:
- The lib_mouse()code is logically split into a lower level that accepts
- event reports in a device-dependent format and an upper level that
- parses mouse gestures and filters events. The mediating data structure
- is a circular queue of event structures.
+ The lib_mouse() code is logically split into a lower level that
+ accepts event reports in a device-dependent format and an upper level
+ that parses mouse gestures and filters events. The mediating data
+ structure is a circular queue of event structures.
Functionally, the lower level's job is to pick up primitive events and
put them on the circular queue. This can happen in one of two ways:
The brains of this operation are the modules hashmap.c, hardscroll.c
and lib_doupdate.c; the latter two use lib_mvcur.c. Essentially, what
happens looks like this:
-
- The hashmap.c module tries to detect vertical motion changes between
- the real and virtual screens. This information is represented by the
- oldindex members in the newscr structure. These are modified by
- vertical-motion and clear operations, and both are re-initialized
- after each update. To this change-journalling information, the hashmap
- code adds deductions made using a modified Heckel algorithm on hash
- values generated from the line contents.
-
- The hardscroll.c module computes an optimum set of scroll, insertion,
- and deletion operations to make the indices match. It calls
- _nc_mvcur_scrolln() in lib_mvcur.c to do those motions.
-
- Then lib_doupdate.c goes to work. Its job is to do line-by-line
- transformations of curscr lines to newscr lines. Its main tool is the
- routine mvcur() in lib_mvcur.c. This routine does cursor-movement
- optimization, attempting to get from given screen location A to given
- location B in the fewest output characters possible.
