Before inserting a newline, re-indent the current line to match
the expected indent level. This fixes cases where the user typed
with incorrect indentation.

When TAB triggers auto-indentation, preserve the cursor's relative
position within the line instead of moving it to the indent boundary.

Instead of just removing 2 spaces, perform_dedent() now calculates
the expected indent level from previous lines and aligns to that.

Extend auto-dedent to trigger when typing dedent keywords, not just
end and }. Now dedent occurs when completing: else, elsif, when,
rescue, ensure.

When splitting a line with Enter, check if the new line starts with
a dedenting keyword (end, else, elsif, when, rescue, ensure, }) and
reduce indentation by one level.

TAB now performs auto-indentation instead of completion when:
- cursor is at start of line
- cursor is at end of line
- character before cursor is whitespace
Auto-indent calculates expected indent level from previous lines
and adjusts current line. Dedenting keywords (end, else, elsif,
when, rescue, ensure, }) reduce indent by one level.

when pressing Ctrl+K on an empty line, delete the entire line instead
of doing nothing. this makes it easier to clean up empty lines while
editing multi-line input.
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
pressing Enter in the middle of multi-line input now always inserts
a new line instead of evaluating, even if the code is syntactically
complete. evaluation only occurs when cursor is at the end of the
last line.

- restore mirb_completion.c/h from before readline removal
- add editor adapter for tab completion (mirb_setup_editor_completion,
mirb_get_completions, mirb_free_completions)
- add TAB key handling in mirb_editor.c
- fix string literal completion: properly detect when cursor is outside
a string by scanning forward, allow string/array/hash literals as
safe receivers for method completion

- fix Enter in middle of line with trailing blank continuation line:
now properly splits the line and removes redundant blank line
- fix auto-indentation when inserting in middle of existing code:
calculate indent from lines up to cursor, not entire buffer
- add mirb_buffer_delete_line() for removing lines from buffer

Previously, all continuation lines showed the same line number (e.g.,
"1*" for every line). Now each line shows its actual line number:
1> class Foo
2* def bar
3* end
4* end
Add mirb_editor_set_prompt_format() which accepts printf-style format
strings (e.g., "%d> ", "%d* ") and calculates the correct prompt length
for each line to ensure proper cursor positioning.

Add in-memory command history for mirb sessions:
- Up arrow on first line: navigate to older history entries
- Down arrow on last line: navigate to newer history entries
- Current input is preserved when browsing and restored when
navigating past the newest entry
- History uses a circular buffer (100 entries max)
- Duplicate consecutive entries are not added

Remove readline/linenoise dependency and implement custom multi-line
editor with:
- Terminal raw mode handling (POSIX termios)
- Multi-line buffer with cursor navigation
- Auto-indentation for Ruby blocks
- Auto-dedentation when typing 'end' or '}'
- Natural terminal scrolling behavior
- Emacs-style keybindings (Ctrl+A/E/K/U/W/Y, Alt+B/F/D)
This eliminates GPL licensing concerns from readline while providing
better multi-line editing than the previous single-line implementation.
The MRUBY_MIRB_READLINE environment variable is no longer supported
as readline integration has been completely removed; ref #6626

Add ANSI color support to mirb for better visual distinction:
- green prompts (both ready '>' and continuation '*')
- red error messages (syntax errors, runtime errors, warnings)
- bold result indicator ('=>')
Colors are automatically disabled when:
- output is not a TTY
- TERM is unset or "dumb"
- NO_COLOR environment variable is set
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
- automatically indent continuation lines based on block depth
- detect block-opening keywords (def, class, if, do, etc.) and braces
- use ANSI escape sequences to fix indentation for:
- block-closing keywords (end, })
- mid-block keywords (else, elsif, rescue, ensure, when)
- only active for interactive TTY input with ANSI support
- requires GNU readline (not available with linenoise)

fixed a bug where tab completion on complex expressions like "d.new(1).a"
would corrupt local variables, causing them to become nil.
the root cause was that evaluating complex receiver expressions during tab
completion ran mrb_vm_run() without proper stack management (stack_keep)
and environment adjustment that mirb's main REPL loop performs. this
corrupted the local variable storage.
the fix restricts tab completion to only evaluate simple receiver
expressions (variable/constant names without operators or method calls).
complex expressions are skipped for completion. this means:
- works: d.<tab> completes methods of variable d
- works: String.<tab> completes methods of constant String
- skipped: d.new(1).<tab> provides no completion
this is a reasonable trade-off that prevents the corruption bug while
still supporting the most common completion scenarios.
also updated mirb_eval_receiver() to use the compiler context for proper
local variable resolution, with argument order matching mrb_parse_string.

implements context-aware tab completion for mirb supporting all readline
variants (GNU readline, libedit, linenoise) with graceful degradation
when no readline library is available.
completion features:
- method names on objects (e.g., "hello".re<Tab> completes to reverse, replace)
- local variables from compiler context
- global variables via Ruby introspection
- constants and class names
- Ruby keywords
architecture:
- core completion engine is library-agnostic
- thin adapters for readline/libedit and linenoise
- context detection based on cursor position analysis
- safe receiver evaluation with exception handling
- proper word break characters so "String.new" works correctly
implementation adds:
- mirb_completion.h: interface definitions and data structures
- mirb_completion.c: complete implementation (~670 lines)
- mirb.c: integration with setup/cleanup calls

addresses #6626 where users building portable binaries need explicit control
over readline detection instead of auto-detection.
MRUBY_MIRB_READLINE values:
auto (default) - auto-detect: try readline, then edit, then linenoise
readline, gnu - force GNU readline only
edit, libedit - force libedit only
linenoise - force linenoise only
none, off, false, disabled - use plain input mode (no readline)

runtime errors now distinguish between:
- errors in current input: show relative line number
- errors from previously defined methods: show method context
examples:
1> a.foo
line 1: undefined method 'a' for Object (NoMethodError)
1> def foo
2* bar
3* end
1> foo
(mirb):in foo: undefined method 'bar' for Object (NoMethodError)
this provides better context since method name is more useful
than line number for errors in previously defined code

syntax errors now show:
- line:column format with relative line numbers (matching prompt)
- source line from user input
- caret indicator pointing to error position
example:
1> x = @@@
line 1:6: syntax error, unexpected invalid token
x = @@@
^
multi-line example:
1> class Foo
2* def bar
3* x = @@@
line 3:6: syntax error, unexpected invalid token
x = @@@
^

add minimal line number decoration to prompts to help track position
within multi-line code blocks. format is 'N>' for initial line and
'N*' for continuation lines. line counter resets after each complete
evaluation for clarity and minimal visual noise.
example:
1> def foo
2* x = 1
3* end
=> :foo
1> 1 + 1
=> 2

since all current uses check for failure (!MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS), add
MRB_OPEN_FAILURE() as the primary macro for better readability. define
MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS() in terms of MRB_OPEN_FAILURE() to avoid duplication
and optimize the common case. update all usage sites to use the clearer
MRB_OPEN_FAILURE() form.

made mrb_print_error() handle NULL by printing "Failed to allocate
mrb_state" when mrb is NULL. since mrb_close() already handles NULL,
this allows simplified error checking pattern:
if (!MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS(mrb)) {
mrb_print_error(mrb); // handles NULL
mrb_close(mrb); // handles NULL
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
updated all binary tools (mruby, mirb, mrdb, mrbtest) to use this
simplified pattern, removing nested if checks.
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
changed mrb_open() and mrb_open_core() to return mrb_state with mrb->exc
set (instead of NULL) when initialization fails. this allows callers to
programmatically inspect error details, which is essential for embedded
systems without stderr. return NULL only for true allocation failure.
added MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS(mrb) macro to check initialization success, since
mrb != NULL no longer guarantees success. updated all binary tools
(mruby, mirb, mrdb, mrbtest) to use new pattern: check MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS,
print exception details via mrb_print_error if available, then mrb_close.
mrb_core_init_protect now preserves exception in mrb->exc instead of
printing and clearing it, giving caller control over error handling.
breaking change: callers must use MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS(mrb) or check both
mrb != NULL && mrb->exc == NULL. old NULL-only checks will miss
initialization failures.

The build configuration for `mruby` assumes only the `ncurses` library
needs to be linked because `tinfo` is implicitly pulled in.
In environments where ncurses is available only as a static library,
`tinfo` needs to be linked explicitly (needed for functions like
`tputs`.
This patch fixes that by linking `tinfo` if available.
It also fixes the build for environments where only the `ncursesw`
version of the library (including wide character support) is present,
while still giving preference to the `ncurses` version (without wide
character support).
The `REnv` object is difficult to deal with, and it would be ideal if the user did not have to manipulate it directly.
In some previous situations, it was necessary to call `mrb_env_unshare()`, a non-API function, after `mrb_load_string()` or similar.
With this patch, it is no longer necessary for users to use `mrb_env_unshare()` directly, as it is now handled internally simply by using the `mrb_vm_ci_env_clear()` function.
Also, `mrb_vm_ci_env_set()` is demoted from the `MRB_API` function for the same reason.
ref. commit 1ab3da6f08
Exception raising can now be controlled by the caller.
The main purpose on this patch is:
- Suppress exceptions from `obj_free()` in `src/gc.c` with `mrb_env_unshare()`.
- Consider the possibility that calls to `mrb_malloc()` may cause `e` objects to be subject to GC.
When control is returned to `mrb_env_unshare()`, `struct free_obj::next` in the same offset as `struct REnv::stack` is rewritten.
Unexpected results then occur when the object is reused.
Also, if `mrb_heap_page` containing an `e` object is freed, it may cause `SIGSEGV` at that point.
- Protects the value of the stack on `callinfo` that just exits if GC occurs inside `mrb_env_unshare()`.
```ruby
def m
b = -> { b }
end
p m.call
# => print block object, not nil
```
This patch does not raise a `NoMemoryError` exception in `mrb_env_unshare()` and can detect that error.
Thus, the problem fixed in # 3087 is not resurrected.
Also, it may seem that this patch should suppress exceptions raised by `cipop()` during `mrb_protect_error()` and `mrb_vm_exec()` unwinds.
However, `mrb_callinfo::u.env` by `CINFO_DIRECT` is not seen to be set.
So in that case `mrb_env_unshare()` is assumed to be originally exception-free.
Instead of including `mruby/presym.h` everywhere, we provided the
fallback `mruby/presym.inc` under `include/mruby` directory, and specify
`-I<build-dir>/include` before `-I<top-dir>/include` in `presym.rake`.
So even when someone drops `-I<build-dir>/include` in compiler options,
it just compiles without failure.
