Add a basic regular expression engine to the dictiter, and to the UI add
the ability to filter for "starts with", "contains" and "ends with",
which translate into ANDed RE_*, _*RE_* and _*RE, respectively (with
_ standing for blank/wildcard). The engine's tightly integrated with the
next/prevWord() functions for greatest possible speed, but unless
there's no pattern does slow things down a bit (especially when "ENDS
WITH" is used.) The full engine is not exposed (users can't provide raw
REs), and while the parser will accept nesting (e.g. ([AB]_*[CD]){2,5}
to mean words from 2-5 tiles long starting with A or B and ending with C
or D) the engine can't handle it. Which is why filtering for word length
is handled separately from REs (but also tightly integrated.)
Users can enter strings that don't map to tiles. They now get an
error. It made sense for the error alert to have a "Show tiles"
button, so there's now a dialog listing all the tiles in a wordlist,
something the browser has needed all along.
Strictly speaking I think a subset is ok. I need to fix my build scripts
OR figure out how to enable the checking Weblate claims to have. The
string I modified is isn't used AFAIK so it's not urgent.
Crash due to typo introduced by Weblate made me realize I wasn't running
the script that ensures translated strings have the same set of format
specifiers as the English -- which might not be strictly necessary, but
it's safer to enforce it for now. Moved a few remaining %s to %1$s style
while at it.
Lots of work dealing with banned permissions (SEND_SMS and
RECEIVE_SMS). First, if they're banned and NBSProxy is installed, just
use it as if the permissions had been granted. When it's not there,
explain at various points where users will otherwise be confused: when
they try to invite using data sms, or when they open a game that already
uses it.)
I modified existing translated strings, adding the new clause. Not doing
that would cause the existing strings to be stripped because they'd no
longer have the matching set of format specifiers.
When those became an advanced feature I added a warning for upgrading
players who'd miss them. That was long ago, and the warning was only
supposed to last a release or two.
