pardes.git/src/web/app.mjs, branch release-0.24

Alt/Option-click is B2 and Super/Cmd-click is B3, sweeps included, as in plan9port: a one-button trackpad can execute and look

2026-10-01T15:58:23Z

The core decides it at the press (mouse.emulateButton) and keeps it to the release, whatever keys are let go between. Ctrl-click stays a definition, and a program tracking the mouse still gets the plain click (Alt as its meta, Super as nothing). The SDL, macOS and web shells now pass Super; the macOS and web shells pass Alt on a click too. A terminal's mouse report has no Super bit, so in a terminal only Alt-click is B2.

A column can be empty, as acme's can; new panes go where acme's makenewwindow puts them

2026-10-01T03:12:15Z

Newcol makes an empty column; closing a column's last pane leaves it empty with the keyboard on its tag; Delcol and Joincol alone take a column away; the session's last pane closing quits. The +New stand-in and replaceStillborn / stillborn_joiner are gone. Every new pane goes through exec.placeNew, which follows acme's makenewwindow (active column, empty column whole, blank space, halving the biggest) or, with Placement pardes, the old rules. ColumnTags is gone: column tags are always shown. A grip drag shows acme's box cursor. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

One Layer for tags, notices, headers and bodies; a taller tag is one layer of rows; wire v8

2026-10-01T03:12:15Z

src/Layer.zig merges TagLayer and BodyLayer. `rows` (0 = no layer) and a cursor at {x, y}. A tag of N rows is ONE layer of N grid rows: tagHit answers the row as `line`, bodyHit keeps its meaning, and the per-line layer bases (TAG_LINE_LAYER_BASE, HEADER_LINE_LAYER_BASE) are gone, not aliased. Wire v8, the one bump: tag layers carry rows and cursor y, and the frame carries the placed region list. v7 and v9 peers are refused in both directions (server test over both, a new frontend test over both). web: tag_layer_value 11 = rows, 12 = cursor y; app.mjs lays every row. macOS: the Zig side compiles against Layer; pardes.h still sees one row per tag layer (accepted, the macOS shell is ignored for now). No visual change: snapshot goldens and the 17 GUI goldens byte-identical. Shared files touched: pardes.zig, Messages.zig, gui.zig, macos.zig, detached/client.zig, detached/server.zig, detached/wire.zig (plus web.zig, app.mjs, edit.zig, look.zig). Not touched: mouse.zig, tagline.zig, colors.zig, tty.zig, dump.zig, exec.zig, host_io.zig, panes.zig.

Step core animation by the shell's clock and sleep to the next wake

2026-10-01T03:12:14Z

A shell now answers Host.now, its monotonic clock in ns, and the pump advances core animation to it: one .tick per whole 16 ms frame since core time last stood still. The same animation therefore takes the same time at 60, 120 and 144 Hz, over ssh and after a slow frame (the GUI's re-armed clock ran them ~25% slow at 144 Hz; the tty's post-frame sleep drifted). nextWake() lists every core animation in one place: a frame from now while anything moves, the end of the wait while something only waits (a message lingering, the look-hover delay), null when idle. Shells sleep exactly that long, and a wait is jumped to its end in one step, so an 800 ms linger costs one frame instead of fifty. An overshoot under 1.5 ms after a step is let go: at 60 and 120 Hz every display frame takes exactly one step (a 16 ms frame against a 16.67 ms vsync would otherwise double-step every 24th). The six tick drivers are gone: tty's timer thread only times the wait, interruptibly (a newer, shorter request cuts short a sleep still timing a longer one); the GUI's AnimationClock, web's JS tick bank (pardes_tick now takes rAF's timestamp), the detached server's and the board's ticks; grid mode steps a virtual clock straight to each wake. PARDES_TEST_CLOCK, set by the snapshot harness, gives tty and the detached server the same virtual clock. Every stepped frame is drawn. The old pump never drew the last frame of a fade (a .tick asks for no frame, and the fade was over by the check), so a theme switch stopped at 9/10 of the way until the next input: theme.golden, themesel.golden and the GUI's acme-light scene move to the theme's true colours, and nothing else changes. The frozen previous grid is captured only while a panel transition is chosen, not on every idle frame.
