cursor_move.rs

1//! Cursor moves that carry their own `curswant` semantics — phase 1 of
2//! `docs/backlog.md`.
3//!
4//! Today, moving the cursor and maintaining `sticky_col` (vim's `curswant`)
5//! are two separate actions, and ~186 call sites do only the first. [`Move`]
6//! makes "what does this do to `curswant`?" a required argument of moving
7//! rather than a follow-up call that can be forgotten: a new motion must name
8//! a variant to compile.
9//!
10//! This module adds the API only. It is implemented over the existing
11//! primitives so behaviour is bit-identical, and nothing is migrated onto it
12//! yet — phases 2–4 do that, phase 5 then seals the raw primitives
13//! (`buf_set_cursor_rc`, `View::set_cursor`) behind it.

19/// How a cursor move relates to `sticky_col` (vim's `curswant`) — the column
20/// `j` / `k` aim at.
21///
22/// Vim's rule has exactly two halves, and every variant here encodes one of
23/// them (or, for [`Move::Raw`], deliberately opts out):
24///
25/// - **vertical** motions READ `curswant`, clamp to the target row's length,
26///   and leave `curswant` alone, so a run of `j` through short lines returns
27///   to the original column on the far side;
28/// - **everything else** that moves the cursor SETS `curswant` to the column
29///   it landed on, so the next `j` aims there.
30///
31/// Pick by asking what the move *is*, not by what is convenient: the whole
32/// point of the enum is that the answer gets recorded at the call site.
