Ctrl +/- had no effect whatsoever in the GPU frontend. Stage 1 (#219)
fixed what zoom did to the TUI; this is the other half.
NO RENDERING WORK. FontMetrics::scale already derived every GUI
dimension — code size, line height, status band, divider, menu rows,
minibuffer dropdown, gutter advance — and apply_font_facts already
re-metriced all seven buffers in one transaction. This drives the
preference that existed: two settings, three commands, and a restore.
Q#Z1 = (c). Relative zoom needs an origin and the daemon is built never
to know one — font_pref.rs is explicit that it "never learns metrics,
advances, or what resolves". Hardcoding 16.0 would put a pixel constant
on the daemon side; always sending a size would destroy the `None`
state for everyone who never zooms. A configured base is the only
option where the daemon still infers nothing, and the untouched path
stays byte-identical.
THREE THINGS REVIEW CAUGHT THAT REVISION 1 HAD WRONG.
Q#Z3 was not implementable as framed. `keymap_stack::Scope` is
Buffer | Mode | Global and carries no frontend identity, so "bind on
GPU frontends only" does not exist; and FrontendEvent has no
command-invocation variant, so the GPU cannot ask for a command by name
either. A global binding would capture the chord in the TUI and take
away the terminal's own zoom — the very thing the user is pressing it
for. Commands ship; the binding waits on capability-aware keymap
resolution, which is now a named follow-on rather than something
smuggled in here.
The restore seam did not exist. Builtins and init.lua both run BEFORE
install_state_dirs, so a pmacs.state.read at module load returns
nothing, always. saveplace and recentf never meet this because both
read lazily inside functions; zoom must apply with no user action,
which makes it this project's first eager state consumer. Restore lives
at the end of install_state_dirs — by definition the moment state
becomes readable, so it cannot be ordered wrongly and a future third
startup path gets it without knowing it had to ask.
Every size write clobbered the family. set_font replaces both fields
unconditionally, so { size = n } alone silently cleared a configured
family until restart.
BITTEN, THREE WAYS. Dropping family preservation fails 3 tests.
Reverting to the framing's own first parser `^(%d+)$` fails 4 including
the seam restore — it anchors to end-of-subject and rejects the
newline-terminated file the writer emits, which is the contradiction
review caught in the framing before it reached code. Hardcoding the
16.0 origin fails the base test.
Also recorded: a loaded crdt run failed two m6_1 PTY tests with
`stty -a output was: ""`. That is R4/R6's empty-content readiness
family, and it means the readiness-helper audit's scope is wider than
three wait_for_file copies under tests/ — src/process.rs's own tests
carry the shape. Undiagnosed, load-sensitive, green isolated and on a
quiet full run; a scope note for that lane, not a registry row, since
the registry judges red CI runs and these were local.
Verified: fmt, clippy, diff-check, --lib 1900/0, crdt 2085/0,
gui_zoom 13/13, journey 47/0, m4 150/0, gpu 221/0, full_grid 1/1.
