Stefan HallerandClaude Opus 4.8 131a315b7f Keep a metadata-carrying cell for a blank changed line
delta, fed a colored diff, renders some blank changed lines (an empty
deleted/added line) as just the OSC 1717 metadata followed by an empty
line — either with no fill at all, or as a background plus an ESC[0K that
the buffer now turns into a draw-time trailing fill rather than content
cells. Either way the line ends up with no cells, so its metadata had
nowhere to live and the line resolved to "not a change".

In the focused main view that broke change-block detection: a blank
deleted line in the middle of a hunk split it in two, so pressing 0
selected only the lines above the blank and the down arrow jumped to the
rest below it.

Restore the content-less sentinel cell finishLine used to add, but only
when there is pending OSC metadata to carry — so an empty line stays
resolvable as the change it is, without reintroducing the unconditional
sentinel (and its prevFgColor coupling) that was removed.

GOCUI - Go Console User Interface

CircleCI CodeCov Go Report Card GolangCI GoDoc GitHub tag (latest SemVer)

Minimalist Go package aimed at creating Console User Interfaces. A community fork based on the amazing work of jroimartin

Features

  • Minimalist API.
  • Views (the "windows" in the GUI) implement the interface io.ReadWriter.
  • Support for overlapping views.
  • The GUI can be modified at runtime (concurrent-safe).
  • Global and view-level keybindings.
  • Mouse support.
  • Colored text.
  • Customizable editing mode.
  • Easy to build reusable widgets, complex layouts...

About fork

This fork has many improvements over the original work from jroimartin.

  • Written ontop of TCell
  • Better wide character support
  • Support for 1 Line height views
  • Better support for running in docker container
  • Customize frame colors
  • Improved code comments and quality
  • Many small improvements
  • Change Visibility of views

func main() {
	g, err := gocui.NewGui(gocui.OutputNormal, true)
	if err != nil {
		log.Panicln(err)
	}
	defer g.Close()

	g.SetManagerFunc(layout)

	if err := g.SetKeybinding("", gocui.KeyCtrlC, gocui.ModNone, quit); err != nil {
		log.Panicln(err)
	}

	if err := g.MainLoop(); err != nil && !gocui.IsQuit(err) {
		log.Panicln(err)
	}
}

func layout(g *gocui.Gui) error {
	maxX, maxY := g.Size()
	if v, err := g.SetView("hello", maxX/2-7, maxY/2, maxX/2+7, maxY/2+2, 0); err != nil {
		if !gocui.IsUnknownView(err) {
			return err
		}

		if _, err := g.SetCurrentView("hello"); err != nil {
			return err
		}

		fmt.Fprintln(v, "Hello world!")
	}

	return nil
}

func quit(g *gocui.Gui, v *gocui.View) error {
	return gocui.ErrQuit
}
