Takes the flat module count from 66 to 42, continuing what admin/ and
calendar/ started.
lib/mailbox/ archiveDate, emptyFolder, folderMove, labelTree,
mailboxName, mailboxRoute
lib/sieve/ sieve, sieveApply, sieveFolders
lib/input/ keyboard, swipe, touch, listSelection, dropUpload
lib/notify/ notify, webpush, webpushEnable
lib/sw/ swCache, swFacts, staleBuild
lib/text/ html, markdown, text, emlName
FOUR THINGS THE FILENAMES GET WRONG, each checked by reading the file
rather than trusting what it is called:
- appFolder is not a mailbox. It is the `ihasmail` folder in JMAP
*Files*, where the client keeps signature images and synced settings.
It stays flat.
- format holds no formatting of text. It re-exports the date and clock
formatters, so it belongs with dates/datetime, not with text/.
- preview is the file viewer deciding what it can show without
downloading, and source is where to point someone asking for this
instance's AGPL source. Neither is about text.
- notify is not Web Push. It is the tab title, the favicon badge and
the new-mail sound -- in-app notification, which is why it sits with
webpush rather than under sw/ with the service worker's own concerns.
threadScroll stays flat too: it decides where a conversation opens, which
is view state rather than a gesture, and input/ is honest only if
everything in it interprets something the reader did.
No behavior change. Almost every reference was on the @/ alias; eight
relative imports in files that did not move, or that moved away from a
sibling, needed rewriting by hand.
The calendar had next and previous as toolbar buttons and n/p, and nothing
for a thumb. Every other surface in the app that a finger drives already
answers to a swipe.
Day and month only. Those are the two views where a period is a page;
week and agenda scroll through a range rather than turning to the next
one, so there is nothing a sideways flick would obviously mean. Dragging
left pulls the next period in from the right, the way paper and every
phone do it.
Three things it deliberately does not do.
It draws nothing while the finger moves. The row swipe slides the row open
because the strip underneath has to name which of six actions is about to
happen; stepping a calendar has two outcomes and the direction of the
finger already says which. Translating the grid would also break the
sticky day header, since a transform makes a containing block. The
threshold is reported by the vibration motor instead, which is what the
haptics are for.
It does not start on an event. Which gesture was meant is decidable at the
moment the finger lands and only then, so dragging an event stays
available to be built later without having to be untangled from this
first.
And it asks for a longer drag than a row swipe -- not because the
consequence is bigger, since stepping back undoes it while a swiped row
has already been archived, but because this gesture has no way to change
its mind. A row reveals what it will do and can be let go early, and
offers Undo after. This shows nothing and offers nothing, so the distance
is the only chance to not mean it.
The axis lock is the shared one, keeping its bias towards the vertical:
the day grid scrolls through the hours, and a scroll misread as a swipe
throws the reader into another day. The toolbar buttons and n/p stay,
because a gesture with no visible control is one only the people who
already know about it can use.
