around, we can't use file descriptors for the working directory because
we will be unable to pass it to a privileged process to tell it where to
read or write files or spawn children. So move tmux back to using
strings for the current working directory. We try to check it exists
with access() when it is set but ultimately fall back to ~ if it fails
at time of use (or / if that fails too).
directly with a helper function in the cmd_entry, include a table of
bind-key commands and pass them through the command parser and a
temporary cmd_q.
As well as being smaller, this will allow default bindings to be command
sequences which will probably be needed soon.
split-window, respawn-window or respawn-pane, pass them directly to
execvp() to help avoid quoting problems. One argument still goes to "sh
-c" like before. Requested by many over the years. Patch from J Raynor.
descriptors rather than strings.
- Each session still has a current working directory.
- New sessions still get their working directory from the client that
created them or its attached session if any.
- New windows are created by default in the session working directory.
- The -c flag to new, neww, splitw allows the working directory to be
overridden.
- The -c flag to attach let's the session working directory be changed.
- The default-path option has been removed.
To get the equivalent to default-path '.', do:
bind c neww -c $PWD
To get the equivalent of default-path '~', do:
bind c neww -c ~
This also changes the client identify protocol to be a set of messages rather
than one as well as some other changes that should make it easier to make
backwards-compatible protocol changes in future.
commands and allow a command to block execution of subsequent
commands. This allows run-shell and if-shell to be synchronous which has
been much requested.
Each client has a default command queue and commands are consumed one at
a time from it. A command may suspend execution from the queue by
returning CMD_RETURN_WAIT and then resume it by calling cmd_continue() -
for example run-shell does this from the callback that is fired after
the job is freed.
When the command queue becomes empty, command clients are automatically
exited (unless attaching). A callback is also fired - this is used for
nested commands in, for example, if-shell which can block execution of
the client's cmdq until a new cmdq becomes empty.
Also merge all the old error/info/print functions together and lose the
old curclient/cmdclient distinction - a cmdq is bound to one client (or
none if in the configuration file), this is a command client if
c->session is NULL otherwise an attached client.
add a new value to mean "leave client running but don't attach" to fix
problems with using some commands in a command sequence. Most of the
work by Thomas Adam, problem reported by "jspenguin" on SF bug 3535531.
for home directory, . for server start directory, - for session start
directory and empty for the pane's working directory (the default). All
can also be used as part of a relative path (eg -/foo). Also provide -c
flags to neww and splitw to override default-path setting.
Based on a diff from sthen. ok sthen
default-path isn't empty, it is used. Otherwise:
1) If tmux neww is run from the command line, the working directory of the
client is used.
2) Otherwise sysctl KERN_PROC_CWD is used to retrieve the current
working directory of the process in the active pane.
3) If that fails, the directory where the session was created is used.
Support code by Romain Francois, OpenBSD specific bits by me.
Note this requires a recent userland and kernel with KERN_PROC_CWD.
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.
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.
This is the first of two changes to make the protocol more resilient and less
sensitive to other changes in the code, particularly with commands. The client
now packs argv into a buffer and sends it to the server for parsing, rather
than doing it itself and sending the parsed command data.
As a side-effect this also removes a lot of now-unused command marshalling
code.
Mixing a server without this change and a client with or vice versa will cause
tmux to hang or crash, please ensure that tmux is entirely killed before
upgrading.
maintain and is only going to get worse as more are used. So instead, add a new
uint64_t member to cmd_entry which is a bitmask of upper and lowercase options
accepted by the command.
This means new single character options can be used without the need to add it
explicitly to the list.
- move the code back into cmd.c and merge with the existing functions where
possible;
- accept "-tttyp0" as well as "-t/dev/ttyp0" for clients;
- when looking up session names, try an exact match first, and if that fails
look for it as an fnmatch pattern and then as the start of a name - if more
that one session matches an error is given; so if there is one session called
"mysession", -tmysession, -tmysess, -tmysess* are equivalent but if there
is also "mysession2", the last two are errors;
- similarly for windows, if the argument is not a valid index or exact window
name match, try it against the window names as an fnmatch pattern and a
prefix.
