This patch attempts to minimize the number of extraneous modifier events. We
used to do this in v1, but impetuously abandoned the attempt in the name of
reducing code complexity.
We achieve this by strategically updating modifier state and internally
reintroducing key sequences as distinct (from macros) entities, which are tied
to the generating key down/up pair.
This will be transparent to most users, but should make the output sequences
easier to reason about and may help in certain edge cases (#184) or in the
case of software with buggy input systems (#181).
keyd redux take 1.
A rewrite which simplifies the config format and provides a
solid foundation for incrementally introducing experimental
features.
Internally:
- Modularized and rewrote most of the code
- Added a mini testing framework (t/)
Externally:
- Eliminated layer inheritance in favour of simple types.
(layouts are now defined with `:layout` instead of `:main`)
- Macros are now repeatable.
- Overload now accepts a hold threshold timeout.
- Config files are now vendor/product id oriented.
- SIGUSR1 now triggers a config reload.
- Modifiers are layers by default and can be extended directly.
- Config files now end in `.conf`.
- `layert()` is now `toggle()`.
- All layers are 'modifier layers' (terminological change)
- Eliminated the dedicated modifer layout.
- Modifiers no longer apply to key sequences defined within a layer.
(Layer sequences are now always executed verbatim.)
The old behaviour was unintuitive and can be emulated using nested
layers if necessary.
