- command bits and pieces:
* allow multiple targets: fnmatch for -t/-c, for example detach all
clients with -t*
* add -c for new-session like new-window
* ' and " should be parsed the same (eg "\e" vs '\e') in config
and command prompt
* last-pane across sessions
2015-12-03 14:43:24 +00:00
* list-keys should quote output so that bindings can just be used in
config file as-is
2016-04-27 12:10:34 +00:00
* resize-pane -p to match split-window -p
2013-03-28 12:42:00 +00:00
- make command sequences more usable
* don't require space after ;
* options for error handling: && and ||?
- options bits and pieces:
* way to set socket path from config file
- format improvements:
2015-12-03 14:43:24 +00:00
* option to quote format (#{q:session_name})
2015-06-02 14:16:13 +00:00
* some way to pad # stuff with spaces
2014-02-01 00:47:04 +00:00
* formats to show if a window is linked into multiple sessions, into
multiple attached sessions, and is the active window in multiple
attached sessions?
2013-03-28 12:42:00 +00:00
- choose mode improvements:
* choose-pane command (augment choose-tree to do this?)
* choose-mode and copy-mode are very similar, make choose-mode a subset?
* flag to choose-* for sort order
2014-06-20 11:19:51 +00:00
* choose mode would be better per client than per window?
2013-08-21 17:28:31 +00:00
* two choices (first one then second, for swap-pane and join-pane)
* choose modes should ditch the key bindings and just have fixed keys, and
be more customized to their purpose (d to delete a buffer for choose-buffer,
a preview of buffer contents, etc)
2013-03-28 12:42:00 +00:00
- improve monitor-*:
* straighten out rules for multiple clients
* think about what happens across sessions
* monitor changes within a region
* perhaps monitor /all/ panes in the window not just one
- improve mouse support:
* bind commands to mouse in different areas?
* commands executed when clicking on a pattern (URL)
2009-07-16 07:35:41 +00:00
- warts on current naming:
2013-04-11 21:45:05 +00:00
* display-time but message-fg/bg/attr
2013-03-28 12:42:00 +00:00
* list-* vs show-*
2015-06-02 14:16:13 +00:00
* split-window -> split-pane?
2013-03-28 12:42:00 +00:00
- better UTF-8 support:
* message display
* searching in copy mode
2013-03-28 12:42:00 +00:00
- copy/paste improvements:
* incremental searching
* paste w/o trailing whitespace
* command to toggle selection not to move it in copy-mode
2015-04-19 18:34:58 +00:00
* regex searching
2015-09-23 13:26:53 +00:00
* copy-pipe should have -x as well
2016-06-10 11:47:15 +00:00
* searching in copy mode should unwrap lines, so if you search for "foobar"
2016-02-05 10:08:39 +00:00
then it should be found even if it is now "foo\nbar" (if the WRAP flag
is set on the line)
2016-06-10 15:38:40 +00:00
* capture-pane option to preserve spaces but not join lines
2013-03-28 12:42:00 +00:00
2014-02-01 00:47:04 +00:00
- layout stuff
* way to tag a layout as a number/name
* maybe keep last layout + size around and if size reverts just put it
2015-04-19 18:40:12 +00:00
back
2014-02-01 00:47:04 +00:00
* revamp layouts: they are too complicated, should be more closely
integrated, should support hints, layout sets should just be a
special case of custom layouts, and we should support panes that are
not attached to a cell at all. this could be the time to introduce
panelink to replace layout_cell
* way to set hints/limits about pane size for resizing
* panning over window (window larger than visible)
2014-02-23 10:19:04 +00:00
* a mode where one application can cross two panes (ie x|y, width =
2015-04-19 18:40:12 +00:00
COLUMNS/2 but height = ROWS * 2)
* separate active panes for different clients
2014-02-01 00:47:04 +00:00
- terminfo bits
* use a better termcap internally instead of screen, perhaps xterm
* use screen-256color when started on 256 colour terminal?
- code cleanup
* instead of separate window and session options, just one master
options list with each option having a type (window or session), then
options on window, on session, and global. for window options we look
2016-10-13 20:14:33 +00:00
window->session->global, and for session we look session->global.
problem: what about windows in multiple sessions? there are contexts
where we do not know which session, or where multiple choices makes
no sense
2014-02-01 00:47:04 +00:00
* the way pane, window, session destroy is handled is too complicated
and the distinction between session.c, window.c and server-fn.c
functions is not clear. could we just have kill_pane(),
kill_window(), unlink_window(), kill_session() that fix up all data
structures (flagging sessions as dead) and return a value to say
whether clients need to be checked for dead sessions? sort of like
session_detach now but more so. or some other scheme to make it
simpler and clearer? also would be nice to remove/rename server-fn.c
* more readable way to work out the various things commands need to
know about the client, notably:
- is this the config file? (cmdq->c == NULL)
- is this a command client? (cmdq->c != NULL &&
2015-04-19 18:40:12 +00:00
cmdq->c->session == NULL)
2014-02-01 00:47:04 +00:00
- is this a control client?
- can i do stdin or stdout to this client?
or even guarantee that cmdq->c != NULL and provide a better way to
tell when in the config file - then we use cmdq->c if we need a
client w/o a session else cmd_current_client
- miscellaneous
* way to keep a job running just read its last line of output for #()
2014-02-14 13:56:39 +00:00
* link panes into multiple windows
2014-02-01 00:47:04 +00:00
* live update: server started with -U connects to server, requests
sessions and windows, receives file descriptors
* there are inconsistencies in what we get from old shell and what
2014-06-20 11:19:51 +00:00
comes from config for new sessions and windows. likewise, panes and
jobs and run-shell and lock command all start with slightly different
environments
2016-02-19 16:45:15 +00:00
* multiline status line? separate command prompt and status line?
2017-01-09 17:48:30 +00:00
* customizable command aliases -- don't really want a whole alias tree
and set-alias commands like hooks/options/environ. maybe array
options, so you set command-alias[0] to foo=bar? array options would
be useful for other stuff
* automatic pane logging
2016-10-13 21:40:20 +00:00
- hooks
* more hooks for various things
2016-10-16 19:59:43 +00:00
* finish after hooks for special commands
2017-01-09 17:48:30 +00:00
* multiple hooks with the same name?
2016-10-16 19:59:43 +00:00
* finish hooks for notifys
* for session_closed, if no sessions at all, perhaps fake up a temporary one
