This commit introduces several improvements to the backup system.
* Backups are made every 8 seconds for buffers that have been modified
since the last backup.
* The `permbackup` option allows users to specify that backups should
be kept permanently.
* `The backupdir` option allows users to store backups in a custom
directory.
Fixes#1641Fixes#1536
Ref #1539 (removes possibility of race condition for backups)
The old notation (for example `CtrlG`) causes confusion when combined
with new notation needed for alt (`Alt-g`) due to Alt being case
sensitive. Previously both formats were supported, but the documentation
and defaults used a combination. This commit only uses the new notation
for consistency.
Ref #1470
This option is disabled by default, and when enabled causes micro
to parse `:line:col` as a location for the cursor rather than
as part of the filename.
Closes#1650Closes#1685
* Added hybrid line numbers
* Changed rulerhybrid to relativeruler, modified documentation accordingly.
* Reverted go.mod and go.sum
I don't know how they got changed but they are good now.

* Adds command "tabmove ±n", for better tab management
* Added tabmove to help:commands
* Replace uses of util.Min, util.Max with util.Clamp
Browsing code and discovered `util.Clamp`, ideal for this section of my code
* oops, missed an arg
* Typo, again
These actions reintroduce the behavior of micro where the Home key
toggles between the start of text (first) and the start of the line.
The same applies for the variant with selection. This commit also
sets these bindings as the defaults.
With the new backup option, the autosave option is no longer useful.
Since it never really worked well in the first place, it has been
removed.
Closes#1420
Some textual changes (without changing formatting) were made to table header lines.
This is a tiny and almost inconsequential change to improve readability.
Adding an S seems more intuitive here. The command you are being asked to run there completes to:
`help commands`
not `help command` as one might expect.
Although maybe help aliases might also be something to consider?
* add binding for more primitive backspace
* support selecting page up and page down
* fix matchbraceleft for braces that start on x=0
* fix multiline copy-paste indenting
let's say you have two lines like
<space><space>line1
<space><space>line2
so you start from cursor x=0 and select both lines, then paste.
we don't want any leading whitespace in this case, because the
cursor is already at x=0 and the selection already includes
whitespace.
this behavior, while slightly less obvious, allows for observing what brace you
just closed. as you write closing braces, the brace you closed gets highlighted
The -l flag to the replace command means "literal" and will treat
the search term literally instead of as a regular expression.
The command bar also now supports expanding environment variables
and running expressions through the shell and using the result
in the command.
The option is `scrollbar` and is off by default. The scroll bar is
not interactive (you can't click and drag it) but this will likely
be fixed in the future.
Ref #869
When savehistory is enabled, micro will save your command history across
sessions. This includes command-mode, shell-mode, open, jump-to-line...
Anything that uses up-arrow for history in the infobar.
This option is on by default.
Closes#874
