28 ;;; Commentary:
30 ;; This file defines a general command-interpreter-in-a-buffer package
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, ....
33 ;; This way, all these specific packages share a common base functionality,
34 ;; and a common set of bindings, which makes them easier to use (and
35 ;; saves code, implementation time, etc., etc.).
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.
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.
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.
47 ;; It is pretty easy to make new derived modes for other processes.
49 ;; For documentation on the functionality provided by Comint mode, and
50 ;; the hooks available for customising it, see the comments below.
51 ;; For further information on the standard derived modes (shell,
52 ;; inferior-lisp, inferior-scheme, ...), see the relevant source files.
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.

571 Interpreter name is same as buffer name, sans the asterisks.

573 Return not at end copies rest of line to end and sends it.
574 Setting variable `comint-eol-on-send' means jump to the end of the line
575 before submitting new input.
577 This mode is customised to create major modes such as Inferior Lisp
578 mode, Shell mode, etc. This can be done by setting the hooks
579 `comint-input-filter-functions', `comint-input-filter', `comint-input-sender'
580 and `comint-get-old-input' to appropriate functions, and the variable
581 `comint-prompt-regexp' to the appropriate regular expression.
583 An input history is maintained of size `comint-input-ring-size', and
584 can be accessed with the commands \\[comint-next-input], \\[comint-previous-input], and \\[comint-dynamic-list-input-ring].
585 Input ring history expansion can be achieved with the commands
586 \\[comint-replace-by-expanded-history] or \\[comint-magic-space].
587 Input ring expansion is controlled by the variable `comint-input-autoexpand',
588 and addition is controlled by the variable `comint-input-ignoredups'.
590 Commands with no default key bindings include `send-invisible',
591 `comint-dynamic-complete', `comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions', and
592 `comint-magic-space'.
594 Input to, and output from, the subprocess can cause the window to scroll to
595 the end of the buffer. See variables `comint-output-filter-functions',
596 `comint-preoutput-filter-functions', `comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input',
597 and `comint-move-point-for-output'.

2350 ;; The load-file/compile-file default mechanism could be smarter -- it

2374 SOURCE-MODES is a list used to determine what buffers contain source
2375 files: if the major mode of the buffer is in SOURCE-MODES, it's source.

2378 If the command is given while the cursor is inside a string, *and*
2379 the string is an existing filename, *and* the filename is not a directory,
2380 then the string is taken as default. This allows you to just position
2381 your cursor over a string that's a filename and have it taken as default.
2383 If the command is given in a file buffer whose major mode is in
2384 SOURCE-MODES, then the filename is the default file, and the

2981 ;; Author: Peter Breton <pbreton@cs.umb.edu>
2983 ;; This little add-on for comint is intended to make it easy to get
2984 ;; output from currently active comint buffers into another buffer,
2985 ;; or buffers, and then go back to using the comint shell.
2987 ;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
2988 ;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
2989 ;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
2990 ;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
2991 ;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
2992 ;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
2993 ;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
2995 ;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
2996 ;; preoutput filter functions (`comint-preoutput-filter-functions') to use
2997 ;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
2998 ;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
2999 ;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, `comint-prompt-regexp'). When it
3000 ;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
3001 ;; `comint-redirect-hook'.
3003 ;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
3004 ;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
3006 ;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
3007 ;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
3008 ;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
3009 ;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
3010 ;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
3011 ;; this prompt is set correctly.
3013 ;; XXX: This doesn't work so well unless `comint-prompt-regexp' is set;
3014 ;; perhaps it should prompt for a terminating string (with an
3015 ;; appropriate magic default by examining what we think is the prompt)?
3017 ;; Fixme: look for appropriate fields, rather than regexp, if
3018 ;; `comint-use-prompt-regexp-instead-of-fields' is true.

3384 ;; Comint mode does not provide functionality equivalent to
3385 ;; shell-set-directory-error-hook; it is gone.
3387 ;; comint-last-input-start is provided for modes which want to munge
3388 ;; the buffer after input is sent, perhaps because the inferior
3389 ;; insists on echoing the input. The LAST-INPUT-START variable in
3390 ;; the old shell package was used to implement a history mechanism,
3391 ;; but you should think twice before using comint-last-input-start
3392 ;; for this; the input history ring often does the job better.
3394 ;; If you are implementing some process-in-a-buffer mode, called foo-mode, do
3395 ;; *not* create the comint-mode local variables in your foo-mode function.
3396 ;; This is not modular. Instead, call comint-mode, and let *it* create the
3397 ;; necessary comint-specific local variables. Then create the
3398 ;; foo-mode-specific local variables in foo-mode. Set the buffer's keymap to

3430 ;; For modes that use comint-mode, comint-dynamic-complete-functions is the
3431 ;; hook to add completion functions to. Functions on this list should return
3432 ;; non-nil if completion occurs (i.e., further completion should not occur).
3433 ;; You could use comint-dynamic-simple-complete to do the bulk of the
3434 ;; completion job.
