a9ec2adb 32;;; This file defines a a shell-in-a-buffer package (shell mode) built
c88ab9ce
ER
33;;; on top of comint mode. This is actually cmushell with things
34;;; renamed to replace its counterpart in Emacs 18. cmushell is more
35;;; featureful, robust, and uniform than the Emacs 18 version.
be9b65ac
DL
36
37;;; Since this mode is built on top of the general command-interpreter-in-
38;;; a-buffer mode (comint mode), it shares a common base functionality,
39;;; and a common set of bindings, with all modes derived from comint mode.
a9ec2adb 40;;; This makes these modes easier to use.
be9b65ac
DL
41
42;;; For documentation on the functionality provided by comint mode, and
43;;; the hooks available for customising it, see the file comint.el.
a9ec2adb 44;;; For further information on shell mode, see the comments below.

46;;; Needs fixin:
47;;; When sending text from a source file to a subprocess, the process-mark can
48;;; move off the window, so you can lose sight of the process interactions.
49;;; Maybe I should ensure the process mark is in the window when I send
50;;; text to the process? Switch selectable?

107;;; SHELL.EL COMPATIBILITY
108;;; Notes from when this was called cmushell, and was not the standard emacs
109;;; shell package.
a9ec2adb
JB
110;;;============================================================================
111;;; In brief: this package should have no trouble coexisting with shell.el.
112;;;
113;;; Most customising variables -- e.g., explicit-shell-file-name -- are the
114;;; same, so the users shouldn't have much trouble. Hooks have different
c88ab9ce 115;;; names, however, so you can customise shell mode differently from cmushell
a9ec2adb
JB
116;;; mode. You basically just have to remember to type M-x cmushell instead of
117;;; M-x shell.
118;;;
119;;; It would be nice if this file was completely plug-compatible with the old
120;;; shell package -- if you could just name this file shell.el, and have it
121;;; transparently replace the old one. But you can't. Several other packages
122;;; (tex-mode, background, dbx, gdb, kermit, monkey, prolog, telnet) are also
123;;; clients of shell mode. These packages assume detailed knowledge of shell
124;;; mode internals in ways that are incompatible with cmushell mode (mostly
125;;; because of cmushell mode's greater functionality). So, unless we are
126;;; willing to port all of these packages, we can't have this file be a
127;;; complete replacement for shell.el -- that is, we can't name this file
128;;; shell.el, and its main entry point (shell), because dbx.el will break
129;;; when it loads it in and tries to use it.
130;;;
131;;; There are two ways to fix this. One: rewrite these other modes to use the
132;;; new package. This is a win, but can't be assumed. The other, backwards
133;;; compatible route, is to make this package non-conflict with shell.el, so
134;;; both files can be loaded in at the same time. And *that* is why some
135;;; functions and variables have different names: (cmushell),
136;;; cmushell-mode-map, that sort of thing. All the names have been carefully
137;;; chosen so that shell.el and cmushell.el won't tromp on each other.

279;;; Directory tracking
280;;; ===========================================================================
281;;; This code provides the shell mode input sentinel
282;;; SHELL-DIRECTORY-TRACKER
283;;; that tracks cd, pushd, and popd commands issued to the shell, and
284;;; changes the current directory of the shell buffer accordingly.
285;;;
286;;; This is basically a fragile hack, although it's more accurate than
a9ec2adb 287;;; the released version in shell.el. It has the following failings:
be9b65ac
DL
288;;; 1. It doesn't know about the cdpath shell variable.
289;;; 2. It only spots the first command in a command sequence. E.g., it will
290;;; miss the cd in "ls; cd foo"
291;;; 3. More generally, any complex command (like ";" sequencing) is going to
292;;; throw it. Otherwise, you'd have to build an entire shell interpreter in
293;;; emacs lisp. Failing that, there's no way to catch shell commands where
294;;; cd's are buried inside conditional expressions, aliases, and so forth.
295;;;
296;;; The whole approach is a crock. Shell aliases mess it up. File sourcing
297;;; messes it up. You run other processes under the shell; these each have
298;;; separate working directories, and some have commands for manipulating
299;;; their w.d.'s (e.g., the lcd command in ftp). Some of these programs have
a9ec2adb 300;;; commands that do *not* affect the current w.d. at all, but look like they
be9b65ac
DL
301;;; do (e.g., the cd command in ftp). In shells that allow you job
302;;; control, you can switch between jobs, all having different w.d.'s. So
303;;; simply saying %3 can shift your w.d..
304;;;
305;;; The solution is to relax, not stress out about it, and settle for
306;;; a hack that works pretty well in typical circumstances. Remember
307;;; that a half-assed solution is more in keeping with the spirit of Unix,
308;;; anyway. Blech.
309;;;
310;;; One good hack not implemented here for users of programmable shells
311;;; is to program up the shell w.d. manipulation commands to output
312;;; a coded command sequence to the tty. Something like
313;;; ESC | <cwd> |
314;;; where <cwd> is the new current working directory. Then trash the
315;;; directory tracking machinery currently used in this package, and
316;;; replace it with a process filter that watches for and strips out
317;;; these messages.
318
319;;; REGEXP is a regular expression. STR is a string. START is a fixnum.
320;;; Returns T if REGEXP matches STR where the match is anchored to start
321;;; at position START in STR. Sort of like LOOKING-AT for strings.

523;;;============================================================================
524;;; Several gnu packages (tex-mode, background, dbx, gdb, kermit, prolog,
525;;; telnet are some) use the shell package as clients. Most of them would
526;;; be better off using the comint package directly, but they predate it.
527;;; The catch is that most of these packages (dbx, gdb, prolog, telnet)
528;;; assume total knowledge of all the local variables that shell mode
529;;; functions depend on. So they (kill-all-local-variables), then create
530;;; the few local variables that shell.el functions depend on. Alas,
531;;; cmushell.el functions depend on a different set of vars (for example,
532;;; the input history ring is a local variable in cmushell.el's shell mode,
533;;; whereas there is no input history ring in shell.el's shell mode).
534;;; So we have a situation where the greater functionality of cmushell.el
535;;; is biting us -- you can't just replace shell will cmushell.
536;;;
537;;; Altering these packages to use comint mode directly should *greatly*
538;;; improve their functionality, and is actually pretty easy. It's
539;;; mostly a matter of renaming a few variable names. See comint.el for more.

554;;; Olin 8/88
555;;; Created.
556;;;
557;;; Olin 5/26/90
558;;; - Split cmulisp and cmushell modes into separate files.
559;;; Not only is this a good idea, it's apparently the way it'll be rel 19.
560;;; - Souped up the directory tracking; it now can handle pushd, pushd +n,
561;;; and popd +n.
562;;; - Added cmushell-dirtrack-toggle command to toggle the directory
563;;; tracking that cmushell tries to do. This is useful, for example,
564;;; when you are running ftp -- it prevents the ftp "cd" command from
565;;; spoofing the tracking machinery. This command is also named
566;;; dirtrack-toggle, so you need only type M-x dirtrack to run it.
567;;; - Added cmushell-resync-dirs command. This queries the shell
568;;; for the current directory stack, and resets the buffer's stack
569;;; accordingly. This command is also named dirs, so you need only type
570;;; M-x dirs to run it.
571;;; - Bits of the new directory tracking code were adapted from source
572;;; contributed by Vince Broman, Jeff Peck, and Barry Warsaw.
573;;; - See also the improvements made to comint.el at the same time.
574;;; - Renamed several variables. Mostly this comprised changing "shell"
575;;; to "cmushell" in the names. The only variables that are not prefixed
576;;; with "cmushell-" are the ones that are common with shell.el:
577;;; explicit-shell-file-name shell-prompt-pattern explicit-csh-args
578;;; and shell-cd/popd/pushd-regexp
579;;; The variables and functions that were changed to have "cmushell-"
580;;; prefixes are:
581;;; shell-directory-stack (v), shell-directory-tracker (f)
582;;; This should not affect users, only elisp hackers. Hopefully
583;;; one day shell.el will just go away, and we can drop all this
584;;; "cmushell" bullshit.
585;;; - Upgraded process sends to use comint-send-string instead of
586;;; process-send-string.
587;;;
588;;; Olin 6/14/90
589;;; - If your shell is named <shellname>, and a variable named
590;;; explicit-<shellname>-args exists, cmushell is supposed
591;;; to use its value as the arglist to the shell invocation.
592;;; E.g., if you define explicit-csh-args to be
593;;; ("-ifx"), then when cmushell cranks up a csh, it execs it
594;;; as "csh -ifx". This is what is documented. What has actually
595;;; been the case is that the variable checked is
596;;; explicit-<shellname>-arguments, not explicit-<shellname>-args.
597;;; The documentation has been changed to conform to the code (for
598;;; backwards compatibility with shell.el). This bug is inherited from
599;;; the same bug in shell.el.
600;;; This bug reported by Stephen Anderson.
601;;;
602;;; Olin 9/5/90
603;;; - Arguments to cd, popd, and pushd now have their env vars expanded
604;;; out by the tracking machinery. So if you say "cd $SRCDIR/funs", the
605;;; $SRCDIR var will be replaced by its value *in emacs' process
606;;; environment*. If this is different from the shell's binding of the
607;;; variable, you lose. Several users needed this feature, fragile
608;;; though it may be. The fix was contributed by sk@thp.Uni-Koeln.DE.
609;;;
610;;; Olin 3/12/91
611;;; - Moved comint-dynamic-complete (filename completion) from M-tab to tab.
c88ab9ce
ER
612;;;
613;;; Jim Blandy 10/30/91
614;;; - Removed the "cmu" prefix from names, renamed file to shell.el,
615;;; to become the standard shell package.
