34;; This file defines a a shell-in-a-buffer package (shell mode) built
35;; on top of comint mode. This is actually cmushell with things
36;; renamed to replace its counterpart in Emacs 18. cmushell is more
37;; featureful, robust, and uniform than the Emacs 18 version.
be9b65ac 38
b578f267 39;; Since this mode is built on top of the general command-interpreter-in-
84728570 40;; a-buffer mode (comint mode), it shares a common base functionality,
b578f267
EN
41;; and a common set of bindings, with all modes derived from comint mode.
42;; This makes these modes easier to use.

b578f267 511;;;
be9b65ac
DL
512;;; This code provides the shell mode input sentinel
513;;; SHELL-DIRECTORY-TRACKER
514;;; that tracks cd, pushd, and popd commands issued to the shell, and
515;;; changes the current directory of the shell buffer accordingly.
516;;;
517;;; This is basically a fragile hack, although it's more accurate than
b7fc702e 518;;; the version in Emacs 18's shell.el. It has the following failings:
be9b65ac 519;;; 1. It doesn't know about the cdpath shell variable.
d76b71af
RS
520;;; 2. It cannot infallibly deal with command sequences, though it does well
521;;; with these and with ignoring commands forked in another shell with ()s.
522;;; 3. More generally, any complex command is going to throw it. Otherwise,
523;;; you'd have to build an entire shell interpreter in emacs lisp. Failing
524;;; that, there's no way to catch shell commands where cd's are buried
525;;; inside conditional expressions, aliases, and so forth.
be9b65ac
DL
526;;;
527;;; The whole approach is a crock. Shell aliases mess it up. File sourcing
528;;; messes it up. You run other processes under the shell; these each have
529;;; separate working directories, and some have commands for manipulating
530;;; their w.d.'s (e.g., the lcd command in ftp). Some of these programs have
a9ec2adb 531;;; commands that do *not* affect the current w.d. at all, but look like they
be9b65ac
DL
532;;; do (e.g., the cd command in ftp). In shells that allow you job
533;;; control, you can switch between jobs, all having different w.d.'s. So
534;;; simply saying %3 can shift your w.d..
535;;;
536;;; The solution is to relax, not stress out about it, and settle for
537;;; a hack that works pretty well in typical circumstances. Remember
84728570 538;;; that a half-assed solution is more in keeping with the spirit of Unix,
be9b65ac
DL
539;;; anyway. Blech.
540;;;
541;;; One good hack not implemented here for users of programmable shells
542;;; is to program up the shell w.d. manipulation commands to output
543;;; a coded command sequence to the tty. Something like
544;;; ESC | <cwd> |
545;;; where <cwd> is the new current working directory. Then trash the
546;;; directory tracking machinery currently used in this package, and
547;;; replace it with a process filter that watches for and strips out
548;;; these messages.
