refactor(arg): simplify escape handling in char extraction

2026-07-16T12:03:18+00:00

Remove redundant comment lines from pick_string and replace explicit
escape mappings in arg macro with a catch-all that handles both literal
and control characters

refactor: rename PickerFlag and PickerFlagAttr to PickerArg and

PickerArgAttr

feat(picker): add `mingling_support` feature and `is_flag` field

2026-07-14T18:41:14+00:00

Rename the `core` feature to `mingling_support` in `mingling_picker` and
propagate it through `mingling_picker_macros`.  Add the `is_flag` field
to `PickerTag` to indicate participation in parsing after a `--`
separator.  Remove empty `seek.rs` file.

feat: use `From` conversion instead of parsing string

fix(flag): simplify argument parsing by removing name inference

feat(mingling_picker_macros): add $+ $- $^ special tokens to

2026-07-13T19:10:57+00:00

internal_repeat

Extend the `internal_repeat` macro with new special tokens:
- `$+`/`ident$+` for current + 1
- `$-`/`ident$-` for current - 1 (clamped at 0)
- `$^`/`ident$^` for min (aka start) value

Move the repetition marker from outside the paren to the last token
inside, supporting `(group,+)` syntax where `+` is the final token.
A trailing `+` or `-` after `)` shifts the repetition count.

Add `PickerPattern::pick` method using new syntax to allow
incremental composition of typed picks.

refactor: rename PickerArguments to PickerArgs and PickerRequirement to

PickerFlag

refactor(mingling_picker): move parse result out of requirement and into

2026-07-13T18:17:33+00:00

pattern

BREAKING CHANGE: `PickerRequirement` no longer stores a `PickerResult`.
Parsed results are now held in the `PickerPattern` structs.
The `result`, `result_mut`, `set_result`, `reset_result`, and
`with_result` methods on `PickerRequirement` have been removed.
The `Picker::pick` method is introduced to begin a pattern definition.

feat(picker): add `is_empty` method and refactor `if let` chains

2026-07-13T17:49:39+00:00

Refactor multiple `if let` patterns in macros to use the let-chain
syntax for improved readability

feat(picker): add core trait, types, and builder macro for argument

2026-07-13T17:36:27+00:00

parsing

Implement the foundational `mingling_picker` library along with its
companion
`mingling_picker_macros` crate. The picker provides:

- `Pickable` trait for parsing types from raw strings
- `PickerResult` enum modeling parse outcomes
- `Picker` struct for storing and indexing command-line arguments
- `PickerRequirement` struct for declarative parameter definitions
- `PickerPattern` family (1..32) of typed pattern structs via the
  `internal_repeat` proc macro
- `req!` proc macro as a succinct builder for `PickerRequirement`

Re-export `mingling_picker::macros::*` from the `mingling` crate when
the
`picker` feature is enabled, replacing the previous wildcard re-export
of
`mingling_macros`.
