Because the screen has a `grain' (there are insert/delete/scroll line operations but no insert/delete/scroll column operations), it is efficient break the update algorithm into two pieces: a first stage that does only line moves, optimizing the end product of user-invoked insertions, deletions, and scrolls; and a second phase (corresponding to the present doupdate code in ncurses) that does only line transformations. The common case we want hardware scrolling for is to handle line insertions and deletions in screen-oriented text-editors. This two-stage approach will accomplish that at a low computation and code-size cost. LINE-MOVE COMPUTATION Now, to a discussion of the line-move computation. For expository purposes, consider the screen lines to be represented by integers 0..23 (with the understanding that the value of 23 may vary). Let a new line introduced by insertion, scrolling, or at the bottom of the screen following a line delete be given the index -1. Assume that the real screen starts with lines 0..23. Now, we have the following possible line-oriented operations on the screen: Insertion: inserts a line at a given screen row, forcing all lines below to scroll forward. The last screen line is lost. For example, an insertion at line 5 would produce: 0..4 -1 5..23. Deletion: deletes a line at a given screen row, forcing all lines below to scroll forward. The last screen line is made new. For example, a deletion at line 7 would produce: 0..6 8..23 -1. Scroll up: move a range of lines up 1. The bottom line of the range becomes new. For example, scrolling up the region from 9 to 14 will produce 0..8 10..14 -1 15..23. Scroll down: move a range of lines down 1. The top line of the range becomes new. For example, scrolling down the region from 12 to 16 will produce 0..11 -1 12..15 17..23. Now, an obvious property of all these operations is that they preserve the order of old lines, though not their position in the sequence. The key trick of this algorithm is that the original line indices described above are actually maintained as _line[].oldindex fields in the window structure, and stick to each line through scroll and insert/delete operations. Thus, it is possible at update time to look at the oldnum fields and compute an optimal set of il/dl/scroll operations that will take the real screen lines to the virtual screen lines. Once these vertical moves have been done, we can hand off to the second stage of the update algorithm, which does line transformations. Note that the move computation does not need to have the full generality of a diff algorithm (which it superficially resembles) because lines cannot be moved out of order. THE ALGORITHM The scrolling is done in two passes. The first pass is from top to bottom scroling hunks UP. The second one is from bottom to top scrolling hunks DOWN. Obviously enough, no lines to be scrolled will be destroyed. (lav) HOW TO TEST THIS: Use the following production: hardscroll: hardscroll.c $(CC) -g -DSCROLLDEBUG hardscroll.c -o hardscroll Then just type scramble vectors and watch. The following test loads are a representative sample of cases: ----------------------------- CUT HERE ------------------------------------ # No lines moved 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 # # A scroll up 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 -1 # # A scroll down -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 # # An insertion (after line 12) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 -1 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 # # A simple deletion (line 10) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 -1 # # A more complex case -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 3 4 5 6 7 -1 -1 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 -1 -1 ----------------------------- CUT HERE ------------------------------------ AUTHOR Eric S.
