cl-tty v0.7.0 — Select Dropdown + Fuzzy Filter
Select Widget
A selection list component — the building block for command palettes, theme
pickers, agent selectors, and file pickers. Options are plists with :title,
:value, and optional :category fields.
The widget supports keyboard navigation (Up/Down, Ctrl+P/N, Enter, Esc), option filtering by case-insensitive substring match with trigram fuzzy fallback, and category grouping with dimmed headers.
Contract
select class — slots: options, filter, on-select, selected-index, layout-node.
make-select &key options filter on-select → select instance.
select-options sel / (setf select-options) — list of option plists.
select-filter sel / (setf select-filter) — filter string or nil.
select-selected-index sel / (setf select-selected-index) — currently highlighted index.
select-on-select sel / (setf select-on-select) — callback fn (receives option plist).
select-layout-node sel / (setf select-layout-node) — layout node.
select-filtered-options sel → list of options matching the filter.
Returns all options when filter is nil. Matches title (case-insensitive).
Falls back to trigram fuzzy matching when no exact substring matches.
select-next sel / select-prev sel — move selection forward/backward,
skipping category headers. Wraps around at boundaries.
select-visible-options sel → filtered options visible in viewport.
Uses available-height from layout node. Culls like ScrollBox.
select-handle-key sel event → T if handled.
Down/Ctrl+N → next. Up/Ctrl+P → prev. Enter → on-select callback. Esc → nil.
render ((sel select) backend) — renders visible options with selection highlight.

Select class
select inherits from dirty-mixin. Options are stored as a list of
plists. selected-index tracks the currently highlighted option.
filter is a string (or nil for unfiltered). on-select is a callback
receiving the selected option plist.
(in-package #:cl-tty.select)
(defclass select (dirty-mixin)
((options :initform nil :initarg :options
:accessor select-options :type list)
(filter :initform nil :initarg :filter
:accessor select-filter :type (or string null))
(selected-index :initform 0 :initarg :selected-index
:accessor select-selected-index :type fixnum)
(on-select :initform nil :initarg :on-select
:accessor select-on-select)

:accessor select-layout-node)))
(defun make-select (&key options filter on-select)
(make-instance 'select
:options (or options nil)
:filter filter
:on-select on-select))
Component protocol
component-layout-node returns the layout node so the layout engine
can position the select widget.
(defmethod component-layout-node ((sel select))
(select-layout-node sel))
Option filtering: substring match
select-filtered-options returns options whose :title contains the
filter string (case-insensitive). When filter is nil, returns all
options. Category headers are NOT filtered out — they remain in the
list so the user can see category context.
The function returns an alist of (filtered-index original-index option)
to preserve the original index for selection tracking.
(defun select-filtered-options (sel)
"Return list of options matching the current filter, in display order.
Each item: (display-index original-index option-plist)."
(let* ((filter (select-filter sel))

all-options)))))
(loop for opt in filtered
for i from 0
collect (list i (position opt all-options) opt))))
Fuzzy matching: trigram Jaccard similarity
trigram-score converts a string into a set of 3-character sliding
window n-grams. fuzzy-match-p returns T if the Jaccard similarity
between the query trigrams and the target trigrams exceeds 0.3.
Trigrams capture character-level similarity without requiring exact
substring matches. "nrd" matches "Nord" because both contain nor,
ord and nrd contributes nrd — the overlap is enough to exceed
the threshold.
(defun string-trigrams (str)
"Return a list of 3-character trigrams from STR."
(let ((s (string-downcase str))
(result nil))

(if (zerop union) nil (> (/ (float intersection) union) 0.3))))
Navigation
select-next and select-prev move the selection forward/backward
through the filtered options list. They skip category headers (options
with :category t). The selection wraps at list boundaries.
select-clamp-index ensures the index is valid after filtering changes.
(defun select-clamp-index (sel)
"Ensure selected-index is valid. Wraps if empty."
(let* ((filtered (select-filtered-options sel))
(count (length filtered)))
(if (zerop count)
(setf (select-selected-index sel) 0)
(setf (select-selected-index sel)
(max 0 (min (select-selected-index sel) (1- count)))))))
(defun select-next (sel)

(let* ((filtered (select-filtered-options sel))
(count (length filtered))
(current (select-selected-index sel)))
(when (plusp count)
(loop for i from 1 below count
for idx = (mod (+ current i) count)
for opt = (third (nth idx filtered))
when (not (getf opt :category))
do (setf (select-selected-index sel) idx)
(mark-dirty sel)

(defun select-prev (sel)
"Move selection to previous non-category option. Wraps at start."

for opt = (third (nth idx filtered))
when (not (getf opt :category))
do (setf (select-selected-index sel) idx)
(mark-dirty sel)
(return)))))
Key event handler
select-handle-key dispatches keyboard events:
- Down, Ctrl+N → select-next
- Up, Ctrl+P → select-prev
- Enter → on-select callback with the selected option
- Esc → return NIL (caller can dismiss)
Returns T if the key was handled, NIL otherwise.
(defun select-handle-key (sel event)
"Handle a key-event. Returns T if handled."
(let ((key (key-event-key event))
(ctrl (key-event-ctrl event)))

(when item

(when cb (funcall cb item))))
t))
((eql key :escape) nil)
(t nil))))
Visible options (viewport culling)
select-visible-options returns only the filtered options that fit
within the widget's available height. Each option occupies 1 row.
This prevents rendering hundreds of items when the viewport shows 10.
(defun select-visible-options (sel)
"Return filtered options that fit within the viewport."
(let* ((ln (select-layout-node sel))
(height (if ln (layout-node-height ln) 80))
(filtered (select-filtered-options sel))
(sel-idx (select-selected-index sel))
;; Show items around the selection
(half (floor (1- height) 2))
(start (max 0 (- sel-idx half)))
(end (min (length filtered) (+ start height))))
(subseq filtered start end)))
Rendering
render draws each visible option on its own line. The selected
option is highlighted with :accent foreground and :background-element
background. Category headers are rendered dimmed (:text-muted) and
not selectable (visually distinct).
(defmethod render ((sel select) backend)
(let* ((ln (select-layout-node sel))
(x (if ln (layout-node-x ln) 0))
