10 xmlns:html="&xmlns.html;">
12 <h1 tag="options">Options</h1>
16 &dactyl.appName; has a number of internal variables and switches which can be set to
17 achieve special effects. These options come in 8 forms:
20 <dl dt="width: 10em;">
21 <dt>boolean</dt> <dd>Can only be <hl key="Boolean">on</hl> or <hl key="Boolean">off</hl></dd>
22 <dt>number</dt> <dd>A numeric value</dd>
23 <dt>string</dt> <dd>A string value</dd>
25 <dt/><dd tag="charlist"/>
27 <dd>A string containing a discrete set of distinct characters</dd>
29 <dt/><dd tag="stringlist"/>
32 A comma-separated list of strings. Any comma appearing within single
33 or double quotes, or prefixed with a <tt>\</tt>, will not be treated
37 <dt/><dd tag="stringmap"/>
39 <dd>A comma-separated list of key-value pairs, e.g., <str delim="">key:val,foo:bar</str></dd>
41 <dt/><dd tag="regexplist"/>
44 A comma-separated list of regular expressions. Expressions may be
45 prefixed with a <tt>!</tt>, in which case the match will be negated. A
46 literal <tt>!</tt> at the beginning of the expression may be matched
47 with <tt>[!]</tt> or by placing the regular expression in quotes.
48 Generally, the first matching regular expression is used. Any comma
49 appearing within single or double quotes, or prefixed with a
50 <tt>\</tt>, will not be treated as an item separator.
53 <dt/><dd tag="regexpmap"/>
56 A combination of a <em>stringmap</em> and a <em>regexplist</em>. Each key
57 in the <a>key</a>:<a>value</a> pair is a regexp. If the regexp begins with a
58 <tt>!</tt>, the sense of the match is negated, such that a non-matching
59 expression will be considered a match and <html:i>vice versa</html:i>.
60 The first <a>key</a> to match yields value.
63 <dt>sitelist</dt> <dd tag="sitelist sitemap"/>
66 Like <t>regexplist</t> and <t>regexpmap</t>, but the keys are
67 <t>site-filters</t> rather than regular expressions.
71 <p tag="macro-string">
72 Some options may be given format strings containing macro replacements in
73 the form of <tt><<a>name</a>></tt>. These tokens are replaced by
74 the parameter <a>name</a> as specified in the relevant documentation.
75 If the token is in the form <tt><q-<a>name</a>></tt>, the value of the
76 parameter is automatically <link topic="quoting">quoted</link>. If it is in
77 the form of <tt><e-<a>name</a>></tt>, its value is never shown but may be
78 used to test whether the given parameter is empty.
81 Array elements, such as in the <tt><args></tt> parameter
82 of <ex>:command</ex> macros, may be accessed by appending
83 <tt>[<a>n</a>]</tt>, where <a>n</a> is the one-based array
84 index, to the macro name. The first argument of a command is
85 therefore accessed with <tt><args[1]></tt>.
88 Any substring enclosed by <em><tt><{</tt></em> and <em><tt>}></tt></em>
89 is automatically elided if any of the contained macros aren't currently
90 valid. A literal <em><tt><</tt></em> or <em><tt>></tt></em> character may
91 be included with the special escape sequences <tt><lt></tt> or
92 <tt><gt></tt> respectively.
95 <p style="text-align: left">
96 For example, given the format string
97 <str><{(cmd: <column>) }><{line: <line> }><file></str>,
98 where <em>line</em>=<hl key="Number">32</hl> and
99 <em>file</em>=<str delim="'">Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen.txt</str>,
100 the result is formatted as
101 <str>line: 32 'Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen.txt'</str>

168 If the option is a list, the given values are toggled. Given,

171 <se opt="opt" op="!=" link="false"><str delim="">foo</str>,<str delim="">baz</str></se>
172 has the same result as
173 <se opt="opt" link="false"><str delim="">bar</str>,<str delim="">baz</str></se>
177 This extends to string options in a natural way, e.g.,
178 <se opt="stal" op="!="><str delim="">always</str>,<str delim="">never</str></se>
179 toggles between the two values.

217 Add the <a>value</a> to a number option, or append the <a>value</a>
218 to a string option. When the option is a comma separated list, a
219 comma is added, unless the value was empty. If the option is a list
220 of flags, superfluous flags are removed. When adding a flag that
221 was already present the option value doesn't change.
228 <spec>:se<oa>t</oa> <a>option</a>^=<a>value</a> <oa>...</oa></spec>
231 Multiply the <a>value</a> to a number option, or prepend the
232 <a>value</a> to a string option. When the option is a comma
233 separated list, a comma is added, unless the value was empty.
240 <spec>:se<oa>t</oa> <a>option</a>-=<a>value</a> <oa>...</oa></spec>
243 Subtract the <a>value</a> from a number option, or remove the
244 <a>value</a> from a string option if it is there. If the
245 <a>value</a> is not found in a string option, there is no error or
246 warning. When the option is a comma separated list, a comma is
247 deleted, unless the option becomes empty. When the option is a list
248 of flags, <a>value</a> must be exactly as they appear in the option.
249 Remove flags one by one to avoid problems.

390 Enables automatic completion for completion contexts (see
391 <ex>:contexts</ex>) matching the given regular expressions. When
392 automatic completion is enabled, the completion list is
393 automatically opened when the &tag.command-line; is focused.
394 Thereafter, any key press triggers a completion update for the
395 matching contexts. Non-matching contexts will only be updated when
396 the <k name="Tab" mode="c"/> key is pressed. This option is useful
397 for disabling auto-completion for computationally intensive
398 contexts that don't perform well when your system is under load.
402 Completion contexts have names very much like Unix path names.
403 These denote the tree in which they're called. A completer will
404 never be called unless every completer preceding it in the tree
405 was also called. For example, if your completer excludes
406 <str>/ex/</str>, it will also exclude <str>/ex/bmarks</str>, and
411 To enable auto-completion for everything but <ex>:history</ex> or
412 <ex>:bmarks</ex>, you would choose a value such as
413 <str delim="">!/ex/(bmarks|history),.?</str>
417 To go in the other direction, i.e. <em>only</em> enable
418 auto-completion for those commands, you have to jump through
419 some hoops, due to the way contexts work (see the note above):
420 <str delim="">/ex/(bmarks|history),^(/|/ex/?)$</str>

808 When generating hints for input elements that do not have an
809 explicit caption, this specifies the methods used to generate a
810 textual hint. The options are attempted in the order they are
811 given, and the first successful value is used.

815 <dt>value</dt> <dd>The hint is the value displayed in a text input, or the selected option for a drop-down.</dd>
816 <dt>label</dt> <dd>The value of an explicit label for the input; this will not match most manually added labels that are found on sites.</dd>

829 The keys used to label and select hints. With its default value,
830 each hint has a unique number which can be typed to select it,
831 while all other characters are used to filter hints based on their

857 The typed characters are matched with the beginning
858 of the first word (see <o>wordseparators</o>) in the
859 link as long as possible. If no matches occur in the
860 current word, then the matching is continued at the
861 beginning of the next word. The words are worked
862 through in the order they appear in the link. If the
863 typed characters contain spaces, then the characters
864 are split on whitespace. These character groups are
865 then matched with the beginning of the words,
866 beginning at the first one and continuing with the
867 following words in the order they appear in the

1019 all plugins except for <em>foobar-plugin</em>, you could use:
1021 <set opt="loadplugins" op="^=">!<str delim="'">foobar-plugin</str></set>
1023 Alternatively, you can specify which plugins to load and which to

1027 <set opt="loadplugins">!<str delim="'">foo|bar</str>,<str delim="'">\.(js|&dactyl.fileExt;)$</str></set>

1595 Regular expression list defining which completion groups show only
1596 matches anchored to the beginning of the result. The first
1597 matching expression is the one that applies. If the match is
1598 negated, then the current filter may match anywhere in the result.
1599 If it is not negated, then the match may only occur at the
1600 beginning of the result. If no items match, then a
1601 context-dependent default value is used.

1652 Defines how command-line completion works. It is a comma-separated
1653 list of parts, where each part specifies what to do for each
1654 consecutive press of the <k name="Tab" mode="c"/> key. The last
1655 element in the list is used for each succeeding <k name="Tab" mode="c"/>
1656 after it has been reached.
1659 <p>These are the possible values for each part:</p>
1662 <dt><str></str></dt> <dd>Complete only the first match.</dd>
1663 <dt><str>full</str></dt> <dd>Complete the next full match. After the last, the original string is used.</dd>
1664 <dt><str>longest</str></dt> <dd>Complete the longest common substring of all completions.</dd>
1665 <dt><str>list</str></dt> <dd>When more than one match, list all matches.</dd>
1666 <dt><str>list:full</str></dt> <dd>When more than one match, list all matches and complete the first match.</dd>
1667 <dt><str>list:longest</str></dt>
1669 When more than one match, list all matches and
1670 complete till the longest common string. When there
1671 is only a single match, it is fully completed
1672 regardless of the case.
