This should be more useful than timeouts in real-world
use cases. The deadline system is based on fibers and is target
to much more coarse-grained (and therfor reliable) timeouts than things
like ev/sleep and timeout arguments.
This updates the documentation and adds a function buffer/push, which
is a more useful function than buffer/push-string or buffer/push-byte by
combining both.
These capture the line and column number of the current position
in the matched text. This is useful for error reporting as well
as indentation checking.
This works by lazily creating an index on first use that stores all
newline character indices in order. We can then do a binary search on
this to get both line number and column number in log(n) time.
This is good enough for most use cases and doesn't slow down the common case at all
- these will not be commonly used patterns in a hot loop so it is not worth to try and
optimize this at all. Constant time look up should be possible but at
the cost of complicating code and slowing down all matching to check for
new lines.
Make doc-format respect leading indents, increase the default format
width to better accommodate markdown formatted documentation. We still
need to support single line style doc strings, such as those used
for most c functions which can be a single line of much longer than
80 or 120 characters.
Consecutive whitespace internal to lines is not preserved, though.
Leading spaces are stripped based on the column index of the first
backtick character in the first delimiter. If there are
characters that are not newline or space before that column in the
string, then the behavior is the same as the old behvaior - no
re-indentation is performed.
Before, EPIPE caused an error, but in most cases it is better
to consider it an end of stream. In the future, we may want to allow
cusomtization of this behavior with flags on the stream but for now
let's keep it simpler.
This could have bad effects in higher load situations, and
duplicates code. It is better to keep a dedicated list of
scheduled IO operations which can be efficiently added and
removed from. It also provides and easy way to enumerate
scheduled IO operations.
