Plenty of places in the code find following or preceding runs, then
afterwards find the paragraph from the run. This is inefficient because
the same linked list is used for both runs and paragraphs, so changes in
paragraphs can be detected while returning the next or previous run.
Previously a count of the carraige returns and line feeds were stored
for end of paragraph runs, and a paragraph sign was stored as the actual
string. This was causing many special cases where the length of the
run needed to be determined differently if the run was or wasn't an
end of paragraph run.
There wasn't any use for storing the paragraph sign unless some drawing
code gets commented out to allow the end paragraphs to be shown,
therefore I changed the code to store the actual string that gets
retrieved by WM_GETTEXT.
This also reverts commit 2b52dd845097f16076c0185b02a003f63898dcab:
wordpad: Empty the richedit undo buffer on creation.
The reverted commit I created to fix an issue that only applied to Wine,
but it just masked the issue which was in richedit controls. The
default character format was set in two places while wordpad was
starting up, and caused wordpad to have two undo items at startup.
I created a function to set the default paragraph format to ensure
consistency when this is done. This initial paragraph format is also
now more consistent with native richedit controls. The dwMask value
always appears to have the same value when retrieved from the native
richedit controls, so all the mask values are now initialized when the
PARAFORMAT2 structure is created.
Consecutively typed characters are grouped together to be undone
together. The grouping of typed characters can be stopped by certain
events that are mentioned in MSDN's remarks on the EM_STOPGROUPTYPING
message, which is also implemented by this patch.
