* msgview: add separate date formattingBence Ferdinandy2022-10-191-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | The ThisDayTimeFormat and friends are missing from the message view which just uses the message list's default setting. This might not be desirable since the amount of space available is different. Introduce separate settings for formatting dates in the message view.

* lint: check for bad white space habitsRobin Jarry2022-10-193-27/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A little coding hygiene cannot hurt. Add a simple awk script to check all source files for bad white space habits: - trailing white space - trailing new lines at the end of files - missing new line at the end of files - spaces followed by tabs The script outputs color when the terminal supports it. It exits with a non-zero code when there was at least one white space issue found. Call the script in the lint step. Example output of the awk script: config/default_styleset:1:# <-- trailing whitespace config/default_styleset:3:# <-- trailing whitespace doc/aerc.1.scd:78: Executes an arbitrary command in the background. Aerc will set the <-- trailing whitespace doc/aerc.1.scd:234: <-- trailing whitespace doc/aerc.1.scd:237: <-- trailing whitespace worker/types/thread_test.go:74: // return ErrSkipThread<-- space(s) followed by tab(s) worker/lib/testdata/message/invalid/hexa: trailing new line(s) Fix issues reported by the script. NB: The ENDFILE match is a GNU extension. It will be ignored on BSD-awk and trailing new lines will not be detected. The lint make target is only invoked on alpine linux which has GNU awk anyway. NB: Empty cells in scdoc tables require trailing white space... Avoid this by setting content in these cells. I don't really see a use for empty cells.

* ui: add :split and :vsplit view optionsTim Culverhouse2022-10-181-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | Add :split and :vsplit commands, which split the message list view to include a message viewer. Each command takes an int, or a delta value ("+1", "-1"). The int value is the resulting size of the message list, and a new message viewer will be displayed below / to the right of the message list. This viewer *does not* set seen flags.

* view: add peek flag and propagateKoni Marti2022-10-041-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Add a peek flag -p to the view commands to open the message viewer without setting the "seen" flag. If the flag is set, it would ignore the "auto-mark-read" config.

* viewer: option to not mark message as seenKoni Marti2022-10-041-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add option to open a message in the message viewer without setting the seen flag. Enables the message viewer to be used as a preview pane without changing the message flags unintentionally. Before, the message viewer would set the seen flag by default. The IMAP backend will now always fetch the message body with the peek option enabled (same as we fetch the headers). An "auto-mark-read" option is added to the ui config which is set to true by default. If set the false, the seen flag is not set by the message viewer.

* bindings: properly check for exKey keystrokesTim Culverhouse2022-10-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When checking for an exKey, aerc inspects the key and the rune of the event vs the exkey binding. Runes should only be inspected if the key is a tcell.KeyRune. Some Ctrl-[:alpha:] keys report a rune in tcell, but aerc does not have these bound to the keystroke definition. Only <C-x> has a rune bound, and is one of the very few <C-> keys that can actually be bound to exKey Only compare the Rune field if the key is of type KeyRune. Otherwise, compare the Key. Also compare any modifiers with the keystroke/key event. These changes allow for any control or alt key combination to be bound to the exkey.

* imap,smtp: add XOAUTH2 supportJulian Pidancet2022-10-012-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add XOAUTH2 authentication support for IMAP and SMTP. Although XOAUTH2 is now deprecated in favor of OAuthBearer, it is the only way to connect to Office365 since Basic Auth is now completely removed. Since XOAUTH2 is very similar to OAuthBearer and uses the same configuration parameters, this is basically a copy-paste of the existing OAuthBearer code. However, XOAUTH2 support was removed from go-sasl library, so this change reimports the code that was removed from go-sasl and offers it a new home in lib/xoauth2.go. Hopefully it shouldn't be too hard to maintain, being less than 50 SLOC.

* open: allow overriding default programRobin Jarry2022-10-012-2/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of xdg-open (or open on MacOS), allow forcing a program to open a message part. The program is determined in that order of priority: 1) If :open has arguments, they will be used as command to open the attachment. If the arguments contain the {} placeholder, the temporary file will be substituted, otherwise the file path is added at the end of the arguments. 2) If a command is specified in the [openers] section of aerc.conf for the part MIME type, then it is used with the same rules of {} substitution. 3) Finally, fallback to xdg-open/open with the file path as argument.

* imap: add option to cache headersTim Culverhouse2022-06-221-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add option to cache headers for imap accounts. Cache db is located at $XDG_CACHE_DIR/aerc/{account name}. The cache is cleaned of stale entries when aerc is first opened. Two new account level configuration options are introduced: * cache-headers (Default: false) * cache-max-age (Default: 30 days (720 hours)) The change in worker/imap/open.go is to set the selected directory. This is required to access the UIDVALIDITY field, which is used in combination with the message ID to form the key for use in the cache db. The key structure is: "header.{UIDVALIDITY}.{UID}" Where reasonable, cache does not stop aerc from running. In general, if there is an error in the cache, aerc should continue working as usual. Errors are either displayed to the user or logged. All messages are stored without flags, and when retrieved have the flags set to SEEN. This is to prevent UI flashes. A new method to FetchMessageFlags is introduced to update flags of cached headers. This is done asynchronously, and the user will see their messages appear and then any flags updated. The message will initially show as SEEN, but will update to unread. I considered updating the cache with the last-known flag state, however it seems prudent to spare the R/W cycle and assume that - eventually - all messages will end up read, and if it isn't the update will occur rather quickly. Note that leveldb puts a lock on the database, preventing multiple instances of aerc from accessing the cache at the same time. Much of this work is based on previous efforts by Vladimír Magyar.
