a1e595e7 2025-04-11 11:13:25 rules: Fix merging KcCGST values in layout order When using layout index ranges (e.g. special indexes “any” or “later”), the rules still match following the order in the rules file, so layout indexes may match without following their natural order. So the resulting KcCGST value should not be merged with the output until reaching the end of the rule set. Because the rule set may also involve options, it may match multiple times for the *same* layout index. So these multiple matches should not be merged together either, until reaching the end of the rule set. When reaching the end of the rule set, for each KcCGST component the pending values are then merged: for each layout, for each KcCGST value in the corresponding sequence, merge with the output. --- Example: ! model = symbols * = pc ! layout[any] option = symbols C 1 = +c1:%i C 2 = +c2:%i B 3 = skip B 4 = +b:%i The result of RMLVO {layout: "A,B,C", options: "4,3,2,1"} is: symbols = pc+b:2+c1:3+c2:3 - `skip` was dropped because it has no explicit merge mode; - although every rule was matched in order, the resulting order of the symbols follows the order of the layouts, so `+b` appears before `+c1` and `+c2`. - the relative order of the options for layout C follows the order within the rule set, not the order of RMLVO. Before this commit, the result would have been: symbols = pc+c1:3+c2:3+b:2
cdafba4f 2024-09-24 15:23:16 rules: Add support for index ranges There is a lot of repetition in the current rules files provided by xkeyboard-config, because the MLVO mappings need to match on the exact layout/variant index. This also prevents to increase the number of maximum groups, because it does not scale. We introduces the following new special layout/variant indexes: - “single”: matches a single layout; same as with no index. - “first”: matches the first layout/variant, no matter how many layouts are in the RMLVO configuration. It allows to merge `layout` and `layout[1]` patterns. - “later”: matches all but the first layout. This is an index range. - “any”: matches layout at any position. This is an index range. We also introduces the new `%i` expansion, which correspond to the index of the matched layout in a mapping with an index range. Example: layout[later] = symbols my_layout = +my_symbols:%i * = +%l[%i]:%i Let’s have a look at concrete examples from xkeyboard-config: ! model layout = symbols * * = pc+%l%(v) ! model layout[1] = symbols * * = pc+%l[1]%(v[1]) ! model layout[2] = symbols * * = +%l[2]%(v[2]) ! model layout[3] = symbols * * = +%l[3]%(v[3]) ! model layout[4] = symbols * * = +%l[4]%(v[4]) ! layout option = symbols * grp:toggle = +group(toggle) ! layout[1] option = symbols * grp:toggle = +group(toggle):1 ! layout[2] option = symbols * grp:toggle = +group(toggle):2 ! layout[3] option = symbols * grp:toggle = +group(toggle):3 ! layout[4] option = symbols * grp:toggle = +group(toggle):4 With this commit we can now simplify it into: ! model layout[first] = symbols * * = pc+%l[%i]%(v[%i]) ! model layout[later] = symbols * * = +%l[%i]%(v[%i]):%i ! layout[any] option = symbols * grp:toggle = +group(toggle):%i The latter rule will work even if we increase XKB_MAX_GROUPS, whereas the former would require to add the missing entries for the new groups. In order to maintain consistent rules, we now disallow layout and variant to have different indexes. For example, the following mapping are now invalid: - layout variant[1] - layout[1] variant[2] - layout[1] variant - layout[first] variant[1] - layout[first] variant - layout variant[any] - etc.
