Clink

• Added new Lua API console.ellipsify() to truncate an input string in various ways.
• Added new rl_buffer:setcommentrow() to let "luafunc:" commands immediately show text in the comment row.
• Adjusted some character width measurements based on analysis from wcwidth-verifier on Win8.1, Win10 with conhost, Win10 with Windows Terminal 1.22, Win11 with conhost, and Win11 with Windows Terminal 1.22.
• The Headline, Pure, and Bureau clinkprompt files now consider unpublished branches as being "ahead", even in cases where git doesn't report a specific "ahead by" count.
• Internal changes to the right side

• Changed searching for color themes and custom prompts to always include themes\ directories under the Clink program directory and Clink profile directory, even when the clink.path setting has been used to remove them from the list of script directories.
• Improved emoji width measurements.
  • Unqualified emojis are counted as a single cell now. Windows Terminal intentionally renders these as a single cell for compatibility with the behavior of the first terminal programs on Linux that began to support emoji characters (an important compatibility detail for the Windows Subsystem for Linux, for example).
  • Country flag emoji character pairs are r

v1.7.3

• Added the Tomorrow* color themes which were accidentally missing from v1.7.0.
• Fixed #682; the clink config theme use and clink config prompt use commands had no effect if there is no clink_settings file yet.

v1.7.0

Clink now supports color theme files and custom prompt files. These enable packaging Clink color settings or Clink custom prompts into shareable files. This finally makes it easy to download and apply themes or prompts shared by other people, or copy them and modify them. The new clink-themes repo is a site where .clinktheme and .clinkp

v1.7.2

This maintenance patch should address the issue where the v1.7.0 update fails to install the new themes\ directory.

Clink now supports color theme files and custom prompt files. These enable packaging Clink color settings or Clink custom prompts into shareable files. This finally makes it easy to download and apply themes or prompts shared by other people, or copy them and modify them. The new clink-themes repo is a site where .clinktheme and .clinkprompt files can be shared (see Contributing for details on how to contribute your own themes and prompts).

• Added support for *.clinktheme color theme files; see Color Themes for more information.
  • Added several clink config theme commands for color themes (run clink config theme --help).
  • The famous Dracula, Solarized (light and dark), and Tomorrow (1 light, 4 dark) themes are included.

• Reduced the performance overhead of hooked APIs from about 20 microseconds to about 2 microseconds.
• Enhanced the executable recognition to avoid flickering red (or color.unrecognized) for an executable name that was already recognized in a recent previous input line.
• Enhanced the srcmap command in the Lua debugger so that srcmap dir automatically sets up source mappings for Clink's built in scripts using dir as the repo root.
• Fixed when history.expand_mode is off; it didn't fully turn off all of the history expansion syntax forms (for example the ^ syntax).
• Fixed input line coloring when the first word is a device name (e.g. nul or com1:); it should use color.unrecognized for the color.
• Fix

v1.6.19 has been deleted because it accidentally broke the updater -- if you already updated to v1.6.19, then a one-time manual update to v1.6.20 or newer is necessary to restore the updater.

• Fixed truncated descriptions with clink set exec. and then clink-select-complete (Ctrl-Space) (regression introduced in v1.6.11).
• Fixed fully qualified paths from a different local drive accidentally being colored with color.unrecognized.
• Fixed #648; on Windows 8.1 the title bar can get changed to "Windows PowerShell" for the rest of the CMD session.
• Fixed #652; error when trying to update again after updating to v1.6.20 (regression introduced in v1.6.19).

• Fixed truncated descriptions with clink set exec. and then clink-select-complete (Ctrl-Space).
• Fixed fully qualified paths from a different local drive accidentally being colored with color.unrecognized.
• Fixed #648; on Windows 8.1 the title bar can get changed to "Windows PowerShell" for the rest of the CMD session.

• Added a new callback function that can be assigned to an argument position in the table given to :addarg() via onalias= (see Responding to Arguments in Argmatchers for more information). The git argmatcher in the clink-completions repo uses this to support git aliases.
• When a doskey alias doesn't include any $ tokens then CMD is guaranteed to ignore the rest of the command line after the alias, so now argmatcher parsing also ignores the rest of the command line and colors it using color.unexpected.
• Suppress the ANSICON warning in the log file and diagnostics output on Windows 8.1. The performance problem in ANSICON exists, but apparently there isn't a better alternative before Windows 10.

• Added warning in the log file and in clink-diagnostics (Ctrl-X,Ctrl-Z) when ANSICON is detected on Windows 8.1 or greater (it's unnecessary, less functional, and greatly degrades performance).
• Added language info in clink-diagnostics when the code page is not 1252 (for easier troubleshooting).
• Fixed finding argmatchers registered with exact names (typing foo couldn't find an argmatcher registered as c:\dir\foo.exe because it accidentally looked for c:\dir\foo.EXE).
• Fixed #631; script error after cmd when the current language is German.

• Added a workaround for how scoop tries to control app versions and updates (#615; scoop causes clink autorun install to use a wrong path).
• Added an auto mode for the match.translate_slashes setting. This mode makes completion translate all slashes in the completed word to match whichever kind occurs first in the word, or to the system path separator if there are no slashes yet (e.g. when completing a directory name).
• Changed the default to auto for the match.translate_slashes setting.
• Updated the clink.slash_translation() function.
• UNC share name completion works with forward slashes now (e.g. //localhost/).
• Added a clink-toggle-slashes bindable command, bound by default to Ctrl
