Symbols signaling status of a process and similar are duplicated in
three different crates. Also two different symbols to signal success are
used:
1. ✓ ( Check Mark, U+2713)
2. ✔ (Heavy Check Mark, U+2714)
Work against that by referring to `radicle-term` from the other crates.
This is morally a revert of 70fb0d3fef
while additionally getting to compile
`crates/radicle-term/src/editor.rs` on Windows.
To get the changes that were made on top of the revert, check
git diff 70fb0d3fef~1 <this commit> -- crates/radicle-term/src/editor.rs
There were reports of the inquire editor being unrealiable.
`radicle-term` includes quite a lot of rather "low-level" logic to spawn
the preferred editor of the user. In particular, this logic is
platform-dependent and only works on Unix-like platforms.
Also, `radicle-term` already depends on `inquire` which features an
editor prompt. It is a cross-platform solution to spawn the editor.
This commit changes the implementation of `Editor` to be a wrapper of
`inquire::Editor`, keeping the interface mostly intact.
Downsides:
- We cannot edit a file "in place" this way, instead we have to read
it, as `inquire` only supports editing temporary files. This can also
be viewed as a benefit, as we lessen the risk of corruption of these
files.
- `inquire::Editor` contains borrows, so it is quite cumbersome to
extend it with a custom mechanism for looking up the preferred
editor. The lookup logic was kept, but needs to be invoked by the
caller. In the future we might consider just using the logic provided
by `inquire` or requesting a change to `inquire`.
- The prompt is a bit strange. It does not show the current state of
the output, see <https://github.com/mikaelmello/inquire/issues/280>
and <https://github.com/mikaelmello/inquire/pull/271>.
The business logic of modifying the identity document should not live in the CLI
code for updating said document.
Instead, we extract out that logic into separate update functions and these are
using from the CLI instead.
