Major UI rework and stability release. Two floating chrome bars replace the
old single toolbar, every resize/tabline-toggle edge case is handled, and
every highlight now derives from the user's colorscheme.
BREAKING CHANGES
- `quit_exits_mode` option removed — `q` is now context-aware: if a DAP
session is running, `q` terminates the session but keeps debug mode
active so you can read the Console / inspect post-mortem state. Press
`q` again to exit debug mode.
- `help_on_enter` default is now `false` (was `true`). Control bar always
shows `(?) help`, so the auto-popup is no longer needed.
- Default layout changed: sidebar is Call Stack → Scopes → Watches →
Breakpoints (all 25%). REPL is no longer in the default layout — press
`E` during debug mode to open it as a floating window.
- Console pane sizing: bottom Console is `max(8 rows, 20% of editor
lines)` (previously hardcoded). Configurable via `console_height`.
ADDED
- Two-bar floating chrome, independent of any statusline plugin:
status bar (top, 2 rows, brand + live dap.status text + state chip),
control bar (bottom, 2 rows, clickable flow buttons + `(?) help`
right-anchored). Italic qualifiers on step controls auto-drop at
narrow widths.
- Keymap-aware control bar — legend reflects user's actual remapped
keys; disabled actions are omitted entirely.
- IP arrow markers on stopped lines: 👉 gutter sign (priority 500) +
👈 REASON virtual text at EOL.
- Optional debug-mode colorscheme via `colorscheme` option.
- Theme-agnostic separator color (derives from WinBar.fg); global
WinSeparator override during debug mode for consistent edge color.
- `clear_console_on_start` (default true) — wipe Console scrollback on
session start while preserving the terminal channel.
- `collapsed_scopes` (default {"Registers"}) — auto-collapse noisy
scopes that adapters don't flag expensive.
- `max_value_width` (default 2000) — per-line truncation for values in
Scopes/Watches.
- `console_refresh_ms` (default 50) — trailing-edge Console repaint
throttle.
- `sidebar` option — "left" (default) or "right".
- `active_window_highlight` (default true) — dim inactive dapui pane
borders.
- `W` and `K` now work in visual mode (operate on the selection).
- Source window focused before DAP jumps on event_stopped.
CHANGED
- Bars are real splits (not overlapping floats).
- pin_dapui_sizes() only re-pins on external geometry changes (tabline
toggle); user manual pane drags survive.
- ensure_dapui() runs ONCE per plugin lifetime, avoiding "Debug adapter
didn't respond" timeouts on toggle.
- Bars clamp to exactly 2 rows on every resize (no stray EOB `~`).
- setup() is fully idempotent; plugin/turbo-debug.lua's deferred
auto-setup yields to explicit user setup({...}).
- Copyright holder: Stephen Waits <steve@waits.net>.
FIXED
- Bars recreate if killed by shrink-below-minimum resize or tabline
appear/disappear.
- Inherited winbar cleared on bar windows (no phantom separator rows).
- Layout re-asserts after `wincmd =`.
- Sidebar proportions stable across re-entry.
- Bar separators bright on both outward edges.
- Deferred dependency loading waits for vim.pack.add to finalize.
INTERNAL
- Extracted 10+ helper functions in mode.lua; deduped ~25 call sites.
- Data-driven sign definitions and Python interpreter probing.
- Dead code removed: unused reposition_bars, vestigial sbar_zones/
handle_sbar_click.
- Added regression tests: test_render_bars, test_highlights_cs,
test_helpers.
- stylua.toml added; all Lua code formatted.
See CHANGELOG.md for the full 0.2.0 entry.
Rename from tiny-debugger to turbo-debug — inspired by Turbo Pascal,
the first IDE with a real visual debugger. This thing isn't tiny,
it's turbo charged.
CHANGELOG for 0.1.0:
Features:
- Zero-config debugging — one line install, everything works
- Modal keybindings (c/s/d/r/q/x/X/D/W/K/E/R/?), active only
during debug mode, cleanly removed on exit
- Persistent breakpoints via persistent-breakpoints.nvim
- Inline virtual text — variable values in source code
- Hover (K), watch (W), REPL eval (E) from the code window
- Help splash (3s auto-dismiss) + manual help (?)
- Debug mode chrome — winbar indicator, cursor highlight
- dapui integration — controls toolbar, labeled panels
- which-key support — <leader>d debug group auto-registered
- quit_exits_mode option
Adapters (12 languages):
- Python (debugpy + venv detection)
- Rust (codelldb + cargo build + vim.ui.select picker)
- Go (delve), C/C++/Swift (codelldb)
- JavaScript/TypeScript (js-debug-adapter)
- C# (netcoredbg), Java, Kotlin, PHP, Ruby, Lua (osv)
Keybindings:
- <leader>dd — toggle debug mode
- <leader>dx / <leader>dX / <leader>dD — breakpoints (always)
- c s d r C x X D W K E q R ? — modal (debug mode only)
