Clean up and simplify tmux command argument parsing.
Originally, tmux commands were parsed in the client process into a
struct with the command data which was then serialised and sent to the
server to be executed. The parsing was later moved into the server (an
argv was sent from the client), but the parse step and intermediate
struct was kept.
This change removes that struct and the separate parse step. Argument
parsing and printing is now common to all commands (in arguments.c) with
each command left with just an optional check function (to validate the
arguments at parse time), the exec function and a function to set up any
key bindings (renamed from the old init function).
This is overall more simple and consistent.
There should be no changes to any commands behaviour or syntax although
as this touches every command please watch for any unexpected changes.
Add -n and -p flags to switch-client to move to the next and previous
session (yes, it doesn't match window/pane, but so what, nor does
switch-client).
Based on a diff long ago from "edsouza".
Setting the cmdlist pointer in the bind-key to NULL to prevent it being freed
after the command is executing is bogus because it may still be needed if the
same command is going to be executed again (for example if you "bind-key a
bind-key b ..."). Making a copy is hard, so instead add a reference count to
the cmd_list.
While here, also print bind-key -n and the rest of the flags properly.
Fixes problem reported by mcbride@.
Identical behaviour to select-prompt can now be obtained with
command-prompt, so remove select-prompt and change ' to be bound to
command-prompt -p index "select-window -t :%%".
Add "server options" which are server-wide and not bound to a session or
window. Set and displayed with "set -s" and "show -s".
Currently the only option is "quiet" (like command-line -q, allowing it to be
set from .tmux.conf), but others will come along.
Massive spaces->tabs and trailing whitespace cleanup, hopefully for the last
time now I've configured emacs to make them displayed in really annoying
colours...
Add a per-client log of status line messages displayed while that client
exists. A new message-limit session option sets the maximum number of entries
and a command, show-messages, shows the log (bound to ~ by default).
This (and prompt history) might be better as a single global log but until
there are global options it is easier for them to be per client.
Add a new display-panes command, with two options (display-panes-colour and
display-panes-time), which displays a visual indication of the number of each
pane.
Add a choose-client command and extend choose-{session,window} to accept a
template. After a choice is made, %% (or %1) in the template is replaced by the
name of the session, window or client suitable for -t and the result executed
as a command. So, for example, "choose-window "killw -t '%%'"" will kill the
selected window.
The defaults if no template is given are (as now) select-window for
choose-window, switch-client for choose-session, and detach-client for
choose-client (now bound to D).
Permit commands to be bound to key presses without the prefix key first. The
new -n flag to bind-key and unbind-key sets or removes these bindings, and
list-key shows them in []s.
Each window now has a tree of layout cells associated with it. In this tree,
each node is either a horizontal or vertical cell containing a list of other
cells running from left-to-right or top-to-bottom, or a leaf cell which is
associated with a pane.
The major functional changes are:
- panes may now be split arbitrarily both horizontally (splitw -h, C-b %) and
vertically (splitw -v, C-b ");
- panes may be resized both horizontally and vertically (resizep -L/-R/-U/-D,
bound to C-b left/right/up/down and C-b M-left/right/up/down);
- layouts are now applied and then may be modified by resizing or splitting
panes, rather than being fixed and reapplied when the window is resized or
panes are added;
- manual-vertical layout is no longer necessary, and active-only layout is gone
(but may return in future);
- the main-pane layouts now reduce the size of the main pane to fit all panes
if possible.
Thanks to all who tested.
status line (bound to "i" by default).
- Add support for including the window index, pane index, and window name
in status-left, or status-right.
- Bump protocol version.
issues - particularly, don't mix with manual pane resizing and be careful when
viewing from multiple clients; generally cycling the layout a few times will
fix most problems. Getting this in for testing while I think about how to deal
with manual mode.
Split window as normal and cycle the layouts with C-b space. Some of the
layouts will work better when swap-pane comes along.
