Subject: common: cli_readline: Improve command line editing
X-Git-Url: http://git.dujemihanovic.xyz/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fc18e9b3d5507845ea8a60a101ee3a368316068e;p=u-boot.git

common: cli_readline: Improve command line editing

This improves the cread_line() function so that it will correctly
process the 'Home', 'End', 'Delete' and arrow key escape sequences
produced by various terminal emulators. This makes command line editing
a more pleasant experience.

The previous code only supported the cursor keys and the 'Home' key, and
only for certain terminal emulator configurations. This adds support for
the 'End and 'Delete' keys, and recognises a wider range of escape
sequences. For example, the left arrow key can be 'ESC O D' instead of
'ESC [ D', and the 'Home' key can be 'ESC [ H', 'ESC O H', 'ESC 1 ~' or
'ESC 7 ~', depending on what terminal emulator you use and how it is
configured.

Changes for v2
   - Explicitly initialize variable to avoid spurious compiler warning.
Changes for v3
   - Remove unnecessary setting of 'act' to ESC_REJECT (now its default
     value).
