Permit keys in copy mode to be prefixed by a repeat count, entered with
[1-9] in vi mode, or M-[1-9] in emacs mode.
From Micah Cowan, tweaked a little by me.
copy mode uses the real screen as backing and if it is updated while copying,
strange things can happen. So, freeze reading from the pty while in copy mode.
Instead of bailing out on the first configuration file error, carry on,
collecting all the errors, then start with the active window in more mode
displaying them.
vi-style B, W and E keys in copy mode to navigate between words treating only
spaces as word separators. Also add . to the list of word separators for
standard word navigation.
From Micah Cowan, tweaked slightly by me.
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...
Eliminate duplicate code and ease the passage for server-wide options by adding
a -w flag to set-option and show-options and making setw and showw aliases to
set -w and show -w.
Note: setw and showw are still there, but now aliases for set -w and show -w.
Change status line drawing to create the window list in a separate screen and
then copy it into the status line screen. This allows UTF-8 in window names and
fixes some problems with #[] in window-status-format.
Two new options, window-status-format and window-status-current-format, which
allow the format of each window in the status line window list to be controlled
using similar # sequences as status-left/right.
This diff also moves part of the way towards UTF-8 support in window names but
it isn't quite there yet.
Cleanup by moving various (mostly horrible) little bits handling UTF-8 grid
data into functions in a new file, grid-utf8.c, and use sizeof intead of
UTF8_DATA.
Also nuke trailing whitespace from tmux.1, reminded by jmc.
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.
Switch the tty key tree over to an (unbalanced) ternary tree which allows
partial matches to be done (they wait for further data or a timer to expire,
like a naked escape).
Mouse and xterm-style keys still expect to be atomic.
Switch tty key input over to happen on a read event. This is a bit more
complicated because of escape input, but in that case instead of processing a
key immediately, schedule a timer and reprocess the bufer when it expires.
This currently assumes that keys will be atomic (ie that if eg F1 is pressed
the entire sequence is present in the buffer). This is usually but not always
true, a change in the tree format so it can differentiate potential (partial)
key sequences will happens soon and will allow this to be fixed.
Convert the window pane (pty master side) fd over to use a bufferevent.
The evbuffer API is very similar to the existing tmux buffer API so this was
remarkably painless. Not many possible ways to do it, I suppose.
Initial changes to move tmux to libevent.
This moves the client-side loops are pretty much fully over to event-based only
(tmux.c and client.c) but server-side (server.c and friends) treats libevent as
a sort of clever poll, waking up after every event to run various things.
Moving the server stuff over to bufferevents and timers and so on will come
later.
Add an activity time for clients, like for sessions, and change session and
client lookup to pick the most recently used rather than the most recently
created - this is much more useful when used interactively and (because the
activity time is set at creation) should have no effect on source-file.
Based on a problem reported by Jan Johansson.
If it isn't available explicitly, work out the current client in a similar way
to the current session - build a list of the possibilities then pick the
newest.
Change session and client activity and creation time members to have more
meaningful names.
Also, remove the code to try and update the session activity time for the
command client when a command message is received as is pointless because it
des not have a session.
Double the escape timer (the time after a \033 is received before tmux gives up
waiting to see if it is part of a key sequence and passes it through) to 500
ms, the previous setting was too fast. Suggested by naddy.
Add a flag for jobs that shouldn't be freed after they've died and use it for
status jobs, then only kill those jobs when status-left, status-right or
set-titles-string is changed.
Fixes problems with changing options from inside #().
If any client currently displaying a window pane has more than 1 KB of output
buffered, don't accept any further data from the process running in the pane.
This makes tmux much more responsive when flooded with output, although other
buffers can still have an impact when running remotely.
Prompted by a query from Ranganathan Sankaralingam.
Rewrite xterm-keys code (both input and output) so that works (doesn't always
output the same modifiers, accepts all the possible input keys) and is more
understandable.
Support the (mostly new) function key+modifier caps (kIC-kIC7). Most of these
will be caught (soon) by the xterm keys code in xterm itself but some other
descriptions such as rxvt define them as well.
Remove the -d flag to tmux and just use op/AX to detect default colours.
Irritatingly, although op can be used to tell if a terminal supports default
colours, it can't be used to set them because in some terminfo descriptions it
resets attributes as a side-effect (acts as sgr0) and in others it doesn't, so
it is not possible to determine reliably what the terminal state will be
afterwards. So if AX is missing and op is present, tmux just sends sgr0.
Anyone using -d for a terminal who finds they actually needed it can replace it
using terminal-overrides, but please let me know as it is probably an omission
from terminfo.
Split the server code handling clients, jobs and windows off into separate
files from server.c (merging server-msg.c into the client file) and rather than
iterating over each set after poll(), allow a callback to be specified when the
fd is added and just walk once over the returned pollfds calling each callback
where needed.
More to come, getting this in so it is tested.
Try to reduce the UTF-8 mess.
Get rid of passing around u_char[4]s and define a struct utf8_data which has
character data, size (sequence length) and width. Move UTF-8 character
collection into two functions utf8_open/utf8_append in utf8.c which fill in
this struct and use these functions from input.c and the various functions in
screen-write.c.
Space for rather more data than is necessary for one UTF-8 sequence is in the
utf8_data struct because screen_write_copy is still nasty and needs to reinject
the character (after combining) into screen_write_cell.
UTF-8 combined character fixes.
Thai can have treble combinations (1 x width=1 then 2 x width=0) so bump the
UTF-8 cell data size to 9 and alter the code to allow this.
Also break off the combining code into a separate function, handle any further
combining beyond the buffer size by replacing the character with _s, and when
redrawing the UTF-8 character don't assume the first part has just been
printed, redraw the entire line.
Instead of having a complicated check to see if the cursor is in the last
position to avoid an explicit wrap, actually move it there.
Some UTF-8 fixes to come.
Add mode keys to move the cursor to the top, middle and bottom of the screen.
H/M/L in vi mode and M-R/M-r in emacs (bottom of screen not bound in emacs).
When drawing lines that have wrapped naturally, don't force a newline but
permit them to wrap naturally again. This allows terminals that use this to
guess where lines start and end for eg mouse selecting (like xterm) to work
correctly.
This was another long-standing issue raised by several people over the last
while.
Thanks to martynas@ for much testing. This was not trivial to get right so
bringing it in for wider testing and adn to fix any further glitches in-tree.
When backspace is received at the beginning of a line and the previous line was
wrapped, move the cursor back up to the end of the previous line.
Another one of the forgotten persons requested this quite a while ago (I need
to start noting names on todo items...) when it was quite hard to
implement. Now it is easy and I don't see it can do any harm, so hey presto...
Use relative cursor movement instead of absolute when possible and when
supported by the terminal to reduce the size of the output data (generally
about 10-20%).
Add a pipe-pane command to allow a pane to be piped to a shell command, for
example:
pipe-pane 'cat >~/out'
No arguments stops outputing and closes the pipe; the -o flag toggles a pipe
and on and off (useful for key bindings).
Suggested by espie@.
Clean up by introducing a wrapper struct for mouse clicks rather than passing
three u_chars around.
As a side-effect this fixes incorrectly rejecting high cursor positions
(because it was comparing them as signed char), reported by Tom Doherty.
Rather than running status-left, status-right and window title #() with popen
immediately every redraw, queue them up and run them in the background,
starting each once every status-interval. The actual status line uses the
output from the last run.
This brings several advantages:
- tmux itself may be called from inside #() without causing the server to hang;
- likewise, sleep or similar doesn't cause the server to block;
- commands aren't run excessively often when redrawing;
- commands shared by status-left and status-right, or used multiple times, will
only be run once.
run-shell and if-shell still use system()/popen() but will be changed over to
use this too later.
New option, mouse-select-pane. If on, the mouse may be used to select the
current pane.
Suggested by sthen@ and also by someone else ages ago who I have forgotten.
Add "grouped sessions" which have independent name, options, current window and
so on but where the linked windows are synchronized (ie creating, killing
windows and so on are mirrored between the sessions). A grouped session may be
created by passing -t to new-session.
Had this around for a while, tested by a couple of people.
Support for individual session idle time locking. May be enabled by turning off
the lock-server option (it is on by default). When this is off, each session
locks when it has been idle for the lock-after-time setting. When on, the
entire server locks when ALL sessions have been idle for their individual
lock-after-time settings.
This replaces one global-only option (lock-after-time) with another
(lock-server), but the default behaviour is usually preferable so there don't
seem to be many alternatives.
Diff/idea largely from Thomas Adam, tweaked by me.
Make C-Up and C-Down in copy mode scroll the screen up and down one line
without moving the cursor, like Up and Down in scroll mode (which will shortly
disappear).
If no target client is specified to commands which accept one, try to guess the
current client, in a similar manner to how sessions already work: if the
current session can be established and has only one client, use that; otherwise
use the most recently created client.
