The recent changes to key handling broke using escape to get out of the
console (escape would toggle between console and menu). Thus take care
of the menu (escape) part of the coupling FIXME by implementing a
callback for the escape key (and removing key_togglemenu) and sorting
out the escape key handling in console. Seems to work nicely
This refactors (as such) keys.c so that it no longer depends on console
or gib, and pulls keys out of video targets. The eventual plan is to
move all high-level general input handling into libQFinput, and probably
low-level (eg, /dev/input handling for joysticks etc on Linux).
Fixes#8
This allows for the four combinations of shift and control. Not
bothering with alt because alt-f4 closes my xterm (bbkeys from the looks
of it: it grabs a bunch of Mod1-* keys).
I left the ones below 256 alone (some were necessary anyway), but above
256 they were almost entirely sequential, which rather defeats the
purpose of using an enum, especially since it makes it difficult to
expand sections.
Also fix a bug where despite supporting 32 buttons, only 18 were actually
supported, and a similar issue for the number of axes.
My saitek x52 has 34 buttons and 10 axes. Whee.
Now the user can create and destroy IMTs at will, though currently
destroying IMTs is currently all or nothing (imt_drop_all).
An IMT is created via imt_create which takes the keydest name (key_game
etc), the name of the IMT (must be unique for all IMTs) and optionally the
name of the IMT to which the key binding search will fall back if there is
no binding in the current IMT, but must be already defined and on the same
keydest. This means that IMTs now have user determined fallback paths. The
requirements for the fallback IMT prevent loops and other weird behaviour.
Actual key binding via in_bind is unaffected. This is why the IMT name must
be unique across all IMTs.
The "imt" command works with the key_game keydest, but imt_keydest is
provided for specifying the active IMT for a specific keydest.
At startup, default IMTs are setup to emulate the previous static IMTs so
old configs will continue to work (mostly). New config files will be
written with commands to drop all of the current IMTs and build new ones,
with the bindings and active IMT set as well.
in_bind_imt is now gone. I guess mercury was right in that it was a poor
design. However, it was (and still is necessary) to support "bind" and
"unbind". Now, instead, they work only with the IMT_MOD table. IMT_MOD sits
below IMT_0 in the imt hierarchy. If the key is not bound in IMT_0+, then
IMT_MOD will be checked. This way, "bind" and "unbind" can never mess with
a user's more sophisticated binding setup.
The backquote is not always usable for toggling the console, and the new
bind system doesn't automatically bind a key to both game and console imts
(by design). Thus create a cvar that allows the "always works" console
toggle to be specified in eg $fs_globalcfg. While I'm at it, do one for the
menus, too.
IMT_DEFAULT to the bottom of the list so that IMT_0 gets written as such
rather than IMT_DEFAULT.
Also, clean up nq's EF_* dlight creation a bit (haven't touched
EF_MUZZLEFLASH: undecided on what to do).
networking support.
Second, I moves keys.c from qw and nq to libs/video/targets when I did
the next thing.
Existing user configs which do binds, sledge hammer. Sledge hammer,
existing user configs which do binds. *WHACK* *WHACK* *WHACK*
See, much nicer now.
Someone should document it, and fix all targets which don't use SDL for
input. (I honestly don't expect svgalib and the like to ever be fixed.)
