Maybe use glib's + iconv() if the system's iconv() is inadequate, since we already use + glib's vsnprintf() if the system lacks vsnprintf()? +- Allow color syntaxes to apply to more than just color, so that we can + e.g. specify a different alternate spell checker depending on which + file type we have open. +- Allow even better file type detection than we have currently, e.g. + through libmagic? +- Allow setting marks (saved positions, not to be confused with the mark + set via Ctrl-^) at various lines and/or columns in the buffer, and + allow movement between them with a single keystroke? (we're running + out of keystrokes) +- Allow searching for and replacing newlines. +- Fix handling of bad/incomplete UTF-8 sequences to display one Unicode + FFFD (Replacement Character) per sequence instead of one per byte. + +For version 2.4: +- New regression framework built on expect. +- Allow text searches in the help browser. +- Handle window resizes better. After we resize, we should stay + wherever we were before we resized, as Pico does. +- Add the ability to move to different lines of the screen with a single + keystroke, e.g. M-` (M-~) to go to the top line, M-& (M-7) to go to + the center line, and M-' (M-") to go to the last line. +- Detect when we're pasting text, so that we can handle it differently + (i.e. faster than currently with screen redraws) +- Allow piping marked text to an external command and replacing it with + the command's output (as the internal spell checker already does with + the "spell" command)? + +For version 2.2: +- Rebindable keys? [DONE] +- Undo/Redo keys (M-U and M-E)? [DONE] +- Fix problems with color syntaxes' highlighting lines too aggressively [DONE] +- Allow nano to work like a pager (read from stdin) [DONE] +- Allow color syntaxes to be selected based on more than just filename + extension, [DONE] +- Allow soft wrapping as well as hard wrapping? [DONE] + +For version 2.0: +- UTF-8 support. [DONE] +- Support for paragraph searches. [DONE] +- Support for justifying the entire file at once. [DONE] +- Support for filename searches in the file browser. [DONE] +- Keystroke to implement "Add next sequence as raw" like vi's ^V. [DONE] +- Spell check selected text only. [DONE] +- Make "To Line" (^W^T) and "Read from Command" (^R^X) reenter their + parent menu when their keystroke is entered a second time (^W^T^T and + (^R^X^X) (requires figuring out when to keep cursor position and when + not to). [DONE] +- Fix resetstatuspos global which we shouldn't have. [DONE] + +For version 1.2: +- Single line scroll up/down? [DONE] +- Color syntax highlighting? (certainly seems like there's a demand for + it.) [DONE] +- .nanorc [DONE] +- Backup making (filename~)? [DONE] +- Search (etc.) string history [DONE] +- Implement Pico's -j and -g flags, as they are pretty easy to do. + [DONE] +- Make mouse support work with clicking on the shortcuts (-m). Must + make global variable pointing to current shortcut list to determine + what keystroke to ungetch(). [DONE]. +- Implement -o (chroot of sorts) [DONE] +- Allow -r to take a negative argument, meaning right margin instead of + left (allows resizing that way), formerly -W arg. [DONE] + +For version 1.0: +- Implement Spelling [DONE] +- Implement Help [DONE] +- Internationalization [In progress, translators welcome!] +- Allow nano to be resized in X. [DONE] +- On page up/down, put the cursor on the first line (like Pico), not the + center line [DONE] +- Rewrite edit_refresh, if at all possible [DONE] +- Implement justify function [DONE] +- Cut to end of line [DONE] +- Built-in speller command [needed for version 1.0] [DONE] +- Better statusbar interaction (scrolling, tab completion for filename) + [needed for version 1.0] [DONE] +- Now do username completion [DONE]. +- Unjustify command (^U after ^J) [DONE =-]. +- Username completion (~user) [DONE =-]. + +$Id: TODO 4516 2010-08-11 02:42:32Z astyanax $ |
