Support dynamically resizing the browser when resizing its xterm window #112

Open danboid opened 4 months ago

It would be nice if httm dynamically resized its browser display "window" when the user resizes an xterm running it without having to quit and re-run httm to get it to redraw the httm browser.

httm is dependent on a few libraries. One is skim, a Rust fuzzy finder library and binary, and transitively tuikit. AFAICT this bug is a problem re: these dependencies. Resizing should work and does work re: skim when running the binary sk, but only after the ingest stage (?).

skim and sk are, as you might imagine, extremely complicated programs. I have my own skim branch: two_percent, and understand some parts of the library very well, but unfortunately not all of it, and not this. I'm happy to keep this issue open in case someone else would like to fix, or if you can provide more information regarding the root cause of the issue. For now, however I won't actively be searching for a solution.

Of course, feel free to report to skim and tuikit, but AFAIK these projects have been relatively dormant for awhile.
