Surprised by this behavior...is this a bug?

The [MAN page description] for =~ and !~ just refer to "(see [Filename
|
|
|
|
|
|
substitution])', but evidently there is a (unexplained) difference.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The actual filename globbing looks correct to me, but the pattern
|
|
|
|
|
|
matching operator behavior is unexpected, if I'm not missing
|
|
|
|
|
|
something.

Wish "tcsh -l" would accept other flags. At least "-c".

Currently I can't get ssh to have the right environment unless it is a
|
|
|
|
|
|
login shell. The .ssh/environment doesn't work for me because I login
|
|
|
|
|
|
to different machines with different environments. One thing to do
|
|
|
|
|
|
would be to not have the different environment for login compared to
|
|
|
|
|
|
other shells, but what I would really like is something like...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ssh remote_application_server "tcsh -l -c application"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "ssh -t" doesn't work for me and I don't know why.

Fix limit vmemoryuse in Linux
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Linux tcsh is unable to limit vmemoryuse. This is because
|
|
|
|
|
|
RLIMIT_VMEM isn't defined, instead Linux has RLIMIT_AS which means the
|
|
|
|
|
|
same. On Google groups I found patches suggested by Komazaki at
|

New idea: use last line (or n'th line) of output as input to new
|
|
|
|
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

I often find myself typing something like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
>locate lshort
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/stow/share/texmf/doc/latex/general/lshort.dvi . . .
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/store/share/texmf/doc/latex/general/lshort.dvi
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
>xdvi /usr/local/store/share/texmf/doc/latex/general/lshort.dvi
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now the way I accomplish writing the last line, is by moving the mouse
|
|
|
|
|
|
over the last line, and the copy paste it. It would be very nice, if
|
|
|
|
|
|
the shell could keep the last n lines of output in a buffer. This way
|
|
|
|
|
|
one could avoid using the mouse by typing something like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
>xdvi <M-1>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
which would insert the last line of output, similarly <M-2> could
|
|
|
|
|
|
insert the second last line of output. (the exact commands used is of
|
|
|
|
|
|
course configured via bindkey).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This could save me a couple of times to the mouse everyday -

The shell does not capture any output from commands it runs, so
|
|
|
|
|
|
this is really more a feature for the terminal (be it hardware
|
|
|
|
|
|
or software). --Kim

New idea: sed operations on variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lots of people seem to like the idea to be able to do sed type
|
|
|
|
|
|
operations on shell variables. Maybe we can extend the syntax of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
variable editing to understand string operations. So I would like to
|
|
|
|
|
|
be able to use:

This is a string.

Fix pipelines that contain builtins so that they behave correctly.

I tried to fix that (most of the code is in sh.sem.c, but it works

only for non POSIX machines cause otherwise the setpgid() I added

fails).

Make manual page references links in the HTML version of the manual.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to match the words with ([0-9]) after them. Links could
|
|
|
|
|
|
be using the manual page CGI at http://www.tac.eu.org/cgi-bin/man-cgi
|
|
|
|
|
|
for content.

Add OpenBSD?? to the Makefile, etc.

A Csh compatability mode would be nice: I know tcsh is supposed to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
fully csh compatible, but csh scripts containing such constructs as
|
|
|
|
|
|
'$<' , 'if ( -d $file ) cd $file' or any of a great number of other
|
|
|
|
|
|
valid csh commands, will produce syntax errors or the like with tcsh,
|
|
|
|
|
|
which is frustrating when writing/maintaining csh scripts which have
|
|
|
|
|
|
to run on systems with only tcsh and systems with only csh. If such a
|
|
|
|
|
|
thing exists, I couldn't find it after searching the man page for two
|
|
|
|
|
|
hours, and it should be better documented
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add hooks for command completion Either for a dynamically loaded
|
|
|
|
|
|
library, or a callback to another program that allows another pass to
|
|
|
|
|
|
complete the command. As a trivial example, the module could duplicate
|
|
|
|
|
|
the functionality of aliases. A tcsh_mud.so could define sigh, groan,
|
|
|
|
|
|
cheer, lol, etc to produce output if they weren't actually valid
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands.

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
expand it properly to something like
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
blah.foo:baz.foo:bob.foo:bar.foo

Don't complete commands with non-executable files. For example if I
|
|
|
|
|
|
have a file called README in a directory in the PATH, and I type R TAB
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcsh will complete README as a command. But README does not have the x
|
|
|
|
|
|
bit set, so it's kind of pointless to have that completion.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
--> Setting the shell variable "recognize_only_executables" will give
|
|
|
|

you this behavior. --Waz

"complete cd" at the shell prompt nothing is printed. It would be nice

|
|
|
|
|
if {cd,pushd} p/1/d/ was printed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
--> I had programmed this feature a while ago but have not submitted
|
|
|
|
|
|
it because the implementation is not robust enough to keep TCSH from
|
|
|
|
|
|
crashing when special characters are part of the pattern. I'll get
|
|
|
|
|
|
back to it at some point! --Waz

Unicode (UTF-8) doesn't seem to work. It's not even possible to "make
|
|
|
|
|
|
catalogs" in unicode environment. Also unicode support (and other
|
|
|
|
|
|
multibyte encodings) should depend on environment variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
(LC_CTYPE), not on "set dspmbyte". On unicode terminal translations
|
|
|
|
|
|
show empty characters instead of messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to message catalogs, there are more problems:
|
|
|
|
|
|
ipi:~/test/tcsh/bin> ls
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcsh <20><><EFBFBD>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ipi:~/test/tcsh/bin> set dspmbyte utf8
|
|
|
|
|
|
ipi:~/test/tcsh/bin> ls ???
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls: No match.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unicode is used more and more, and is default on many environments, so
|
|
|
|
|
|
this really should be fixed. --mpaananen

When I have a script called from complete I would like to have the the
|
|
|
|
|
|
existing text from the command line passed to that script so that it
|
|
|
|
|
|
can look at all existing words to detemine what it should output as
|
|
|
|
|
|
the completion list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
complete prog 'n/-x/`myscript`'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then when I do this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> prog -a A -b B -x <TAB>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The script would get 'prog -a A -b B -x ' which would allow the script
|
|
|
|
|
|
to base its -x completions on the options given for -a and -b (or if
|
|
|
|
|
|
they aren't present give nothing - or a message saying that they are
|
|
|
|
|
|
required). Setting a temporary environment variable before executing
|
|
|
|
|
|
the command would also work and would probably be safer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Perhaps this info is already available as a special variable that can
|
|
|
|
|
|
be manually passed to the script: complete prog 'n/-x/`myscript
|
|
|
|
|
|
$cmd_line`'?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Update: I looked into this further by actually downloading the code
|
|
|
|
|
|
and looking through it. It doesn't seem that this information is
|
|
|
|
|
|
available anywhere, but I did manage to achieve what I wanted by
|
|
|
|
|
|
adding the following two lines around the call to tw_complete (line
|
|
|
|
|
|
278, tw.parse.c 6.12.00):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
added> tsetenv(STRCURRCMDLINE, (Char *)&qline);
|
|
|
|
|
|
looking = tw_complete(cmd_start, &wordp, &pat, looking, &suf);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
added> Unsetenv(STRCURRCMDLINE);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And I added a definition for STRCURRCMDLINE to be "CURRCMDLINE".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This provides the environment variable CURRCMDLINE to any
|
|
|
|
|
|
script/program running under complete. The only issue I see is picking
|
|
|
|
|
|
a sufficiently obscure environment variable that noone else is likely
|
|
|
|
|
|
to use, but have it readable enough to understand what it is for. It
|
|
|
|
|
|
also shouldn't overwrite an existing ENV variable if it is already in
|
|
|
|
|
|
use.
