Hello, I reworked the prototype for the i-search navigation concept. It is now more thoroughly tested and hopefully not a waste of time to have a look at it. For the focus-sensitive help text, I modified the function print_autowrap() and for now called it print_autowrap_fill(). It could replace the old function but does a bit more work than it. With this navigation concept, mconf's behavior (in i-search mode) is quite different from the known one, most noticeably the need to switch focus to the buttons to be able to use <y|n|m|space>. Ideas are very welcome. Interesting in i-search mode is the ability to not only search item strings, but also their selection marks. So, one can search for items selected as a module, for example. Dirk Changes in v5: * More thoroughly tested code * Hotkey navigation concept completely dropped * Printable characters except special ones form the search string * Focus-sensitive help text above menu * DEL erases search string * Matching string is highlighted in selected menu item * README help text adjusted Changes in v4: * Prototype: consequent i-search navigation concept Changes in v3: * Use current git tree to make the patch apply. * Eliminate debugging output to stderr. Changes in v2: * Additionally to CTRL-s, \ can be used to start isearch. * Raw mode is off by default an can be enabled by an environment variable MENUCONFIG_RAW_MODE. * I also added a variable for toggling raw mode but did not implement anything else. * The isearch indicator is now displayed as soon as isearch is started. * Any key except \, CTRL-s, alphanumeric characters and space terminates isearch and -- except ESC ESC -- is further processed, e.g. ENTER terminates isearch and is then used to navigate into a submenu. * Problems with mismatches and matches above the current position were fixed.
