Users will now also be shown flashes and notifications in addition to log entries for missing allow-external-apps permission or for invalid extras passed like the executable. The flashes and notifications can be controlled with the Termux Settings -> Debugging -> Plugin Error Notifications toggle
This implements the framework to report info to users. This may include reporting failure or result of commands or any exceptions that are raised.
The ReportInfo provides 5 fields:
- userAction: The user action that was being processed for which the report was generated.
- sender: The internal app component that sent the report.
- title: The report title.
- reportString: The markdown text for the report.
- addReportAndDeviceDetails: If set to true, then report and device details will be added to the report.
This should provide the basics parameters for showing a report to the user. The ReportActivity also allows user to copy and share the report.
In future this can also be used to allow users to easily email or post crash reports to github for Termux app crashes instead of going through logcat.
This is the launcher icon with a circle around it. I added the circle
because the icon has a transparent background, so it looks a bit weird
with just the >_.
Icons used in notifications/status bar are monochrome and should use only white color and transparency. It is displayed fine on Android emulators but it's shown in black on Samsung Galaxy S7 running Android 7.0.
After the change, status bar icon is white and the small icon in notification still uses the black color set via setColor(). Termux doesn't support devices running Android older than 5.0 but using white color in vector drawables would be also necessary to generate proper (white) bitmap icons.
Split the app/ module into three modules
terminal/ - Terminal emulator library module.
view/ - Terminal view library module (depending on terminal/).
app/ - The main Termux app (depending on view/).
Also add the
float/ - The Termux:Float app (depending on view/).
- Make text selection easier and quicker by selecting text directly on long press, and using standard grip bars for changing the selection.
- Disable the drawer while selecting text.
- Fix problem with selecting snippets of text with wide unicode characters at start and end.
- Remove the "tap-screen" configuration option for a more common show keyboard behaviour when tapping the terminal.
- Do no longer map the back key to escape by default - but it's still possible to do by configuration.
- Add new hardware keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+K for toggling soft keyboard visibility.
