- Store history entries as (timestamp)::(entry)\n\n
- Merge the entries together when saving to avoid loss of history
entries
To ideally make having two concurrently open shells
(or `js` repls or whatever) not overwrite each others' history entries.
This commit adds support for inserting in a "verbatim" mode where a
single uninterpreted key is appended to the buffer.
As this allows the user to input control characters, all control
characters except \n (^M) are rendered in their caret form, with
reverse video (SGR 7) applied to it.
To not break cursor movement, the concept of "masked" characters is
introduced to the StringMetrics interface, which can be mostly ignored
by the rest of the system.
It should be noted that unlike some other line editing libraries,
LibLine does _not_ render a hard tab as a tab, but rather as '^I',
which greatly simplifies cursor handling.
Other shells also support a number of other options with exec and
some have special behaviour when calling exec with no arguments except
redirections.
This PR only supports the basic case of replacing the Shell process
(or LibShell host process) with the provided command.
Such errors are raised when SyntaxError nodes are executed, and are also
used for internal control flow.
The 'break' and 'continue' commands are currently only allowed inside
for loops, and outside function bodies.
This also adds a 'loop' keyword for infinite loops.
This builtin takes a bunch of strings, resolves them as globs (in the
current directory) and prints out the matching entries.
Its main use is to allow dynamic glob resolution:
```sh
glob "$whatever/*"
```
Fixes#4345.
This was done in 54b453b in the name of "fixing event loop processing in
subshells", but I do not see how a new PGID is supposed to affect the event
loop.
This seems to have been done by mistake, let's see if any tests fail
because of this.
Problem:
- Clang reports unused private member warning in the `Shell::Formatter`.
- Vector is not used in the `Shell::Formatter`.
Solution:
- Remove unused private member variable.
- Remove unused includes.
As Vector<T> will relocate objects to resize, we cannot assume that the
address of a specific LocalFrame will stay constant, or that the
reference will not be dangling to begin with.
Fixes an assertion that fires when a frame push causes the Vector to
reallocate.
This patchset allows a match expression to have a list of names for its
glob parts, which are assigned to the matched values in the body of the
match.
For example,
```sh
stuff=foobarblahblah/target_{1..30}
for $stuff {
match $it {
*/* as (dir sub) {
echo "doing things with $sub in $dir"
make -C $dir $sub # or whatever...
}
}
}
```
With this, match expressions are now significantly more powerful!
