The three pieces of information for the leftmost details view column (file type, permissions, and whether xattrs are present) used to be gathered from separate sources and passed around separately before being displayed at the end. Now, file type and permissions are put into a struct, along with the xattrs boolean that’s still getting passed around all over the place but not quite as much.
This was all done because I wanted to be able to test permissions rendering, without having file type and xattrs dragged into the same function.
A field can now render itself using colours and a users reference, rather than a Table doing the rendering. This way, only the relevant fields in the Environment can be made available to the render function, and the test code loses some lines.
Override the size column for block and charater devices, so it shows the major and minor device IDs instead (which are in the Metadata struct somewhere).
This is what ls does when faced with a device.
By parsing OsStrings rather than Strings, it’s the getopts crate that’s doing the UTF-8 checking rather than us, so if one of them isn’t valid, it’ll just fail to parse rather than crash exa.
Also, save a few allocations here and there.
This makes it possible to use them in scripts. Also, I couldn’t find any other program returned a different error code! So it’s being changed to 0.
Fixed#180.
Fixes#134, a bug that showed symlinks incorrectly as broken, but only when the file was listed directly on the command-line *and* the file was in a different directory to the one exa was being run in.
I’m not sure why the old code used `String::new()`, but it doesn’t seem to affect anything.
* `$BASHDIR` and `$FISHDIR` had incorrect paths
* Fix `$FEATURES` to actually work
* Add `-f` to `rm` invocations to quiet missing file errors
* Just use `man` to preview the manpage
* Fix (again) `make` not rebuilding
* Add `make help` to view all of the commands and variables
Because the link style and status are now both available to the function that picks the colour style, we can have it highlight broken links differently.
Fixes#131.
The old option descriptions were all written at different times, and needed some consistency. This makes everything consistent between the help text, README, man page, and shell completions, and fixes some mistakes made when writing them.
This also adds the missing options to the man page, fixing #175.
