For cut and copy sixels are converted to a monochrome image; unset sixels
are black and set sixels are white. Alphanumerics and control codes are
ignored. Held mosaics are not considered.
For paste a clipboard with only an image is converted to black and white
for unset and set sixels. This only works reliably with fully-black and
fully-white pixels.
A complete rewrite of decode.cpp and decode.h to make it easier to follow
and maintain. Rather than a set of "layers" descended from C++ classes, the
for-loop across the rows and columns explicitly lays out the order of
processing the Level 1 characters and attributes, the X/26 enhancements
that affect the page directly as well as those within each Invocation of an
Object, followed by selecting which Invoked Object to place in the character
cell or in the absence of an Object the underlying page fragment will be
placed in the cell.
The new decoder has the following improvements over the old...
- Local Enhancement Data has priority over Active Objects.
- Active Objects can set Full Screen and Full Row colours.
- Incremental/decremental flash phases are tracked correctly within Objects.
- X/26 characters overwriting the bottom half of Level 1 Double Height rows.
- Interaction between the underlying page and Objects where characters of
different sizes overlap.
decode.* will solely decode the teletext packets into a grid of characters and
colours and other attributes stored in an agnostic way, then render.* will read
this grid and render the characters onto the screen with the Qt specific
methods.
This does not word-wrap single lines of text at all, it assumes the
plain text is in a neat block with newlines at the end of each line.
We can't yet handle non-ASCII Unicode characters as that will need
further work on the keymapping tables.
