28;;; Commentary:
29
b578f267 30;; This file defines a general command-interpreter-in-a-buffer package
f4e432bb
SM
31;; (comint mode). The idea is that you can build specific process-in-a-buffer
32;; modes on top of comint mode -- e.g., Lisp, shell, scheme, T, soar, ....
814299a7 33;; This way, all these specific packages share a common base functionality,
b578f267
EN
34;; and a common set of bindings, which makes them easier to use (and
35;; saves code, implementation time, etc., etc.).
36
37;; Several packages are already defined using comint mode:
38;; - shell.el defines a shell-in-a-buffer mode.
39;; - cmulisp.el defines a simple lisp-in-a-buffer mode.
40;;
41;; - The file cmuscheme.el defines a scheme-in-a-buffer mode.
42;; - The file tea.el tunes scheme and inferior-scheme modes for T.
f4e432bb
SM
43;; - The file soar.el tunes Lisp and inferior-lisp modes for Soar.
44;; - cmutex.el defines TeX and LaTeX modes that invoke TeX, LaTeX, BibTeX,
45;; previewers, and printers from within Emacs.
46;; - background.el allows csh-like job control inside Emacs.
b578f267
EN
47;; It is pretty easy to make new derived modes for other processes.
48
f4e432bb 49;; For documentation on the functionality provided by Comint mode, and
b578f267 50;; the hooks available for customising it, see the comments below.
814299a7 51;; For further information on the standard derived modes (shell,
b578f267
EN
52;; inferior-lisp, inferior-scheme, ...), see the relevant source files.
53
54;; For hints on converting existing process modes (e.g., tex-mode,
55;; background, dbx, gdb, kermit, prolog, telnet) to use comint-mode
56;; instead of shell-mode, see the notes at the end of this file.

178Certain derived modes may override this option.
179
180If you set this option to t, then the safe way to temporarily
181override the read-only-ness of comint prompts is to call
182`comint-kill-whole-line' or `comint-kill-region' with no
183narrowing in effect. This way you will be certain that none of
184the remaining prompts will be accidentally messed up. You may
185wish to put something like the following in your `.emacs' file:

187\(add-hook 'comint-mode-hook

2406;; Support for source-file processing commands.
2407;;============================================================================
2408;; Many command-interpreters (e.g., Lisp, Scheme, Soar) have
2409;; commands that process files of source text (e.g. loading or compiling
0ff9b955
PJ
2410;; files). So the corresponding process-in-a-buffer modes have commands
2411;; for doing this (e.g., lisp-load-file). The functions below are useful
b578f267
EN
2412;; for defining these commands.
2413;;
2414;; Alas, these guys don't do exactly the right thing for Lisp, Scheme
2415;; and Soar, in that they don't know anything about file extensions.
2416;; So the compile/load interface gets the wrong default occasionally.
2417;; The load-file/compile-file default mechanism could be smarter -- it
2418;; doesn't know about the relationship between filename extensions and
0ff9b955 2419;; whether the file is source or executable. If you compile foo.lisp
b578f267 2420;; with compile-file, then the next load-file should use foo.bin for
0ff9b955 2421;; the default, not foo.lisp. This is tricky to do right, particularly
b578f267
EN
2422;; because the extension for executable files varies so much (.o, .bin,
2423;; .lbin, .mo, .vo, .ao, ...).
2424
2425
2426;; COMINT-SOURCE-DEFAULT -- determines defaults for source-file processing
2427;; commands.

2438
2439PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE is a pair (directory . filename) from the last
2440source-file processing command. nil if there hasn't been one yet.
2441SOURCE-MODES is a list used to determine what buffers contain source
2442files: if the major mode of the buffer is in SOURCE-MODES, it's source.
2443Typically, (lisp-mode) or (scheme-mode).
2444
2445If the command is given while the cursor is inside a string, *and*
2446the string is an existing filename, *and* the filename is not a directory,
2447then the string is taken as default. This allows you to just position
2448your cursor over a string that's a filename and have it taken as default.
2449
2450If the command is given in a file buffer whose major mode is in
2451SOURCE-MODES, then the filename is the default file, and the
2452file's directory is the default directory.
2453
2454If the buffer isn't a source file buffer (e.g., it's the process buffer),
2455then the default directory & file are what was used in the last source-file
2456processing command (i.e., PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE). If this is the first time
2457the command has been run (PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE is nil), the default directory
2458is the cwd, with no default file. (\"no default file\" = nil)
2459
2460SOURCE-REGEXP is typically going to be something like (tea-mode)
2461for T programs, (lisp-mode) for Lisp programs, (soar-mode lisp-mode)
2462for Soar programs, etc.

3054;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
3055;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
f4e432bb 3056;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
3965beb0
GM
3057;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
3058;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
f4e432bb 3059;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
3965beb0 3060;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
814299a7 3061;;
3965beb0 3062;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
f4e432bb
SM
3063;; preoutput filter functions (`comint-preoutput-filter-functions') to use
3064;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
3965beb0 3065;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
f4e432bb 3066;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, `comint-prompt-regexp'). When it
3965beb0 3067;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
f4e432bb 3068;; `comint-redirect-hook'.
3965beb0
GM
3069;;
3070;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
3071;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
3072;;
3073;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
3074;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
f4e432bb
SM
3075;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
3076;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
3965beb0
GM
3077;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
3078;; this prompt is set correctly.
3079;;
f4e432bb 3080;; XXX: This doesn't work so well unless `comint-prompt-regexp' is set;

3497;; For modes that use comint-mode, comint-dynamic-complete-functions is the
3498;; hook to add completion functions to. Functions on this list should return
3499;; non-nil if completion occurs (i.e., further completion should not occur).
3500;; You could use comint-dynamic-simple-complete to do the bulk of the
3501;; completion job.
