Limiting input phrase length is disabled by default. The default length
limit value is 1000. The user has to enable the option and lower the
length limit in order to be surprised by missing translation. By making
such configuration changes, the user should become aware of this feature
and its effect.
As the person who has implemented this feature and uses 100 as the
length limit, I am never surprised or disappointed by missing
translation. The only annoyance is this warning that floods my systemd
journal. Apparently I accidentally select overly long phrases way too
often.
When a user clicks on a link in a dictionary or requests translation of
a word by double-clicking or translates selection via the context menu,
at first the article from the highest-priority dictionary is at the top.
Then, after approximately one second, the article from the dictionary,
out of which the translation was requested, becomes current and the view
scrolls down to this article placing it on top, hiding articles from the
dictionaries above it.
Such application behavior is inconvenient in some workflows so that the
user manually navigates to the top dictionary translation when this
automatic scrolling happens.
For example: a user has English->Russian dictionaries and
English->English dictionaries. The English->Russian dictionaries are
higher up in the dictionary order because they provide easier/faster to
understand translations. Some rare words and phrases are missing from
the English->Russian dictionaries however. Thus the user occasionally
reads the English explanation of a word/phrase. When the user
double-clicks on a word or follows a link in the English->English
dictionary article, she would rather see translations from the
preferable English->Russian dictionaries.
The new option allows to disable automatic scrolling and ensure that
articles from higher-priority dictionaries are visible. The option
doesn't affect backward/forward navigation via arrow buttons or
Alt+Arrow shortcuts: these still scroll to the stored vertical position
among articles. This remaining automatic scrolling happens much faster,
is not a problem for the described use case and hopefully for other use
cases.
Separate data directory is only used if history file isn't already
present in the configuration directory.
This commit together with two previous ones allows to switch to
layout described in XDG Base Directory specification. Data is not
migrated automatically and old ~/.goldendict home dir has precedence.
If you wish to use standards-compliant locations, move files and
directories manually:
```
CONFIG="${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/goldendict"
CACHE="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/goldendict"
DATA="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/goldendict"
mkdir -p "${CACHE}"
mkdir -p "${DATA}"
mv ~/.goldendict/index "${CACHE}"
mv ~/.goldendict/history "${DATA}"
mv ~/.goldendict/ "${CONFIG}"
```
Please note that this effectively discards network cache stored in
"${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/GoldenDict/network". You can safely
delete the obsolete cache directory. If you wish to preserve and
keep using the existing network cache, move it into the new location
manually:
```
CACHE="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}"
mkdir -p "${CACHE}/goldendict"
mv "${CACHE}/GoldenDict/network" "${CACHE}/goldendict"
rmdir "${CACHE}/GoldenDict"
```
If GoldenDict with this change has been already used, new cache dir
will already have "${CACHE}/goldendict/network", and mv will refuse to
merge directories. In such case, you will need to manually remove it
before moving directory with old cache.
The geometries of many GoldenDict's dialogs and windows are already
stored in config. Dictionaries dialog can make use of extra horizontal
space when there are many groups, extra vertical space - when there are
many dictionaries. A user can now resize this dialog to her liking once.
Preferences::sanitizeInputPhrase() transforms an input phrase by
removing its whitespace/punctuation prefix and suffix. Translating a
phrase from X11 primary selection or from clipboard, via mouse-over or
from the command line results in such sanitization. This is useful when
a punctuation mark or a space is selected accidentally alongside a word.
This sanitization can be undesirable, however, when an abbreviated word
is selected. For example: "etc.", "e.g.", "i.e.".
This commit implements searching for the input word with the punctuation
suffix preserved as an alternative form of the sanitized word to show
articles for both. For example, when the word "etc." is translated from
the clipboard, both "ETC" and "etc." articles are displayed.
The punctuation suffix is preserved when the word is passed from the
scan popup to the main window and when the translate line text is
refreshed (e.g. when the current group is changed). The suffix is not
stored in history and favorites (doing so would require file format
changes and possibly substantial code changes, this can be implemented
later if need be).
Trim the input phrase once in ArticleNetworkAccessManager::getResource()
instead of verbose trimming in multiple places in
ArticleMaker::makeDefinitionFor().
Closes #1350.
When a Wikipedia article is already cached, this change reduces the
amount of sent and received network data almost tenfold.
Setting up a network disk cache in the same way for dictNetMgr does not
noticeably impact the amount of network traffic. Either this network
access manager sends and receives very little data or the data is never
the same. So dictNetMgr does not need a disk cache.
Use QNetworkDiskCache's default maximum size of 50 MiB as the default
network cache size. This size is large enough to accommodate tens of
huge MediaWiki articles. It is also small enough that the user is
unlikely to run out of disk space because of the cache.
Clear network cache on exit by default because most users probably
don't load the same online articles after restarting GoldenDict. Plus
storing the network cache on disk indefinitely by default would be a new
and unexpected to the users privacy risk.
Nikita Moor came up with the idea and wrote an initial network disk
cache implementation in #1310.
When a long text is accidentally selected or copied while the scan popup
is on, Goldendict spends a lot of CPU time to gradually create a
"No translation..." article. When translation of huge (e.g. 15 MB) text
from the clipboard is (accidentally) requested, Goldendict freezes for a
while. Turning the added input phrase limit option on eliminates this
waste of the CPU time.
I have implemented these options primarily for selection and clipboard,
but they also affect mouse-over translation on Windows and command line
translation requests. This is mostly because I did not bother to limit
the options' scope. I guess hovering over an extremely long text without
spaces (e.g. Base64-encoded) could cause the same performance issue on
Windows. The command-line translation could be requested from a script
that integrates Goldendict with some other application, from which long
text could be sent for translation by accident.
I hope that the default value of 200 characters will be sufficient for
just about any real-world user input in any language. The option is on
by default, because the default length limit is generous and any longer
text is unlikely to be sent for translation intentionally. My personal
preference for the input phrase length limit is 100 symbols.
ArticleView::pasteTriggered() didn't call QString::simplified() on the
text retrieved from the clipboard. I assumed this was an oversight, so
now it *is* called - indirectly, via Preferences::sanitizeInputPhrase().
When an integral value is converted to a signed integer type, if the
result is not representable, the resulting value is implementation
defined (until C++20). Convert the string value from configuration file
to the target type (int) to avoid the redundant type conversion.
Use the more direct and efficient QSpinBox::value() instead of
QAbstractSpinBox::text().toInt().
