Other than consistency with printf(), I'm not sure why we went with the
printed size as the return value; returning the resultant strings makes
much more sense as dsprintf() (etc) can then be used as a safe va()
add dstring_copysubstr and make all the substr functions use strnlen
for the incoming string. also fix the append string functions to append
the present string correctly.
cbuf.c:
use dstring_copystr instead of dstring_clearstr/dstring_appendstr
idparse.c:
use dstring_copysubstr instead of dstring_clearstr/dstring_insert
multiple appends nicely.
also create davsprintf and dasprintf to /append/ the printed strings to the
dstring rather than overwriting it as is done with dvsprintf and dsprintf.
add dstring_replace. this replaces a string of lenth rlen at position
pos with data of lenth len, growing, shrinking and shuffling data as
appropriate. At this rate, the dstring `class' will get buffer gap
editing capabilities :)
cmd.c:
Cmd_TokenizeString builds cmd_active_buffer->line again.
Cmd_Process bails out instantly if cmd_active_buffer is a legacy buffer
and uses dstring_replace to modify the parameters in
cmd_active_buffer->line. This last change results in drastic
simplification (and accuracy) of the commandline reconstruction code,
both in Cmd_TokenizeString and Cmd_Process.
Changed Cmd_TokenizeString to accept a flag that controls the application
of filters (tags, variables, escape characters) to the tokens and modified
a few places in the source that called it. Added a secondary command
buffer that is parsed without filters for legacy command support.
Currently, it is only used for commands stuffed into the console from the
server. It is hacky, and I hope to eventually generalize the console
interface to support any number of buffers and audit the rest of the code
to recognize it. For now, the legacy buffer at least keeps escape
character parsing from destroying info strings.
console command parser. It will eventually include html-like tags for
modifying text (gold numbers, brown characters, etc) and escaped characters.
The major differences so far are that dynamic strings are now used instead
of static buffers, and single quotes can be used to enclose tokens as
well as double quotes.
