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.
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.
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.

160 This variable is only used if the variable

163 Good choices:
174 "If non-nil, the comint prompt is read only.
175 The read only region includes the newline before the prompt.
176 This does not affect existing prompts.
177 Certain derived modes may override this option.
179 If you set this option to t, then the safe way to temporarily
180 override the read-only-ness of comint prompts is to call
181 `comint-kill-whole-line' or `comint-kill-region' with no
182 narrowing in effect. This way you will be certain that none of
183 the remaining prompts will be accidentally messed up. You may
184 wish to put something like the following in your `.emacs' file:

189 (define-key comint-mode-map [C-S-backspace]
190 'comint-kill-whole-line)))

1688 it to the process mark, and sends it.
1690 This command also sends and inserts a final newline, unless

1693 Any history reference may be expanded depending on the value of the variable
1694 `comint-input-autoexpand'. The list of function names contained in the value
1695 of `comint-input-filter-functions' is called on the input before sending it.
1696 The input is entered into the input history ring, if the value of variable
1697 `comint-input-filter' returns non-nil when called on the input.
1699 If variable `comint-eol-on-send' is non-nil, then point is moved to the
1700 end of line before sending the input.
1702 After the input has been sent, if `comint-process-echoes' is non-nil,

1708 The values of `comint-get-old-input', `comint-input-filter-functions', and
1709 `comint-input-filter' are chosen according to the command interpreter running
1710 in the buffer. E.g.,
1712 If the interpreter is the csh,
1713 `comint-get-old-input' is the default:
1714 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is nil, then
1715 either return the current input field, if point is on an input
1716 field, or the current line, if point is on an output field.
1717 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is non-nil, then
1718 return the current line with any initial string matching the
1719 regexp `comint-prompt-regexp' removed.
1722 `comint-input-filter' is the default: returns t if the input isn't all white
1723 space.
1725 If the Comint is Lucid Common Lisp,
1726 `comint-get-old-input' snarfs the sexp ending at point.
1727 `comint-input-filter-functions' does nothing.
1728 `comint-input-filter' returns nil if the input matches input-filter-regexp,
1729 which matches (1) all whitespace (2) :a, :c, etc.

2650 ;; Support for source-file processing commands.
2651 ;;============================================================================
2652 ;; Many command-interpreters (e.g., Lisp, Scheme, Soar) have
2653 ;; commands that process files of source text (e.g. loading or compiling
2654 ;; files). So the corresponding process-in-a-buffer modes have commands
2655 ;; for doing this (e.g., lisp-load-file). The functions below are useful
2656 ;; for defining these commands.
2657 ;;
2658 ;; Alas, these guys don't do exactly the right thing for Lisp, Scheme
2659 ;; and Soar, in that they don't know anything about file extensions.
2660 ;; So the compile/load interface gets the wrong default occasionally.
2661 ;; The load-file/compile-file default mechanism could be smarter -- it
2662 ;; doesn't know about the relationship between filename extensions and
2663 ;; whether the file is source or executable. If you compile foo.lisp
2664 ;; with compile-file, then the next load-file should use foo.bin for
2665 ;; the default, not foo.lisp. This is tricky to do right, particularly
2666 ;; because the extension for executable files varies so much (.o, .bin,
2667 ;; .lbin, .mo, .vo, .ao, ...).
2670 ;; COMINT-SOURCE-DEFAULT -- determines defaults for source-file processing
2671 ;; commands.
2672 ;;
2673 ;; COMINT-CHECK-SOURCE -- if FNAME is in a modified buffer, asks you if you
2674 ;; want to save the buffer before issuing any process requests to the command
2675 ;; interpreter.

2685 SOURCE-MODES is a list used to determine what buffers contain source
2686 files: if the major mode of the buffer is in SOURCE-MODES, it's source.
2687 Typically, (lisp-mode) or (scheme-mode).
2689 If the command is given while the cursor is inside a string, *and*
2690 the string is an existing filename, *and* the filename is not a directory,

2692 your cursor over a string that's a filename and have it taken as default.

2695 SOURCE-MODES, then the filename is the default file, and the

3311 ;; This little add-on for comint is intended to make it easy to get
3312 ;; output from currently active comint buffers into another buffer,
3313 ;; or buffers, and then go back to using the comint shell.
3314 ;;
3315 ;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
3316 ;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
3317 ;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
3318 ;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
3319 ;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
3320 ;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
3321 ;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
3322 ;;
3323 ;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
3324 ;; preoutput filter functions (`comint-preoutput-filter-functions') to use
3325 ;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
3326 ;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
3327 ;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, `comint-prompt-regexp'). When it
3328 ;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
3329 ;; `comint-redirect-hook'.
3330 ;;
3331 ;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
3332 ;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
3333 ;;
3334 ;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
3335 ;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
3336 ;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
3337 ;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
3338 ;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
3339 ;; this prompt is set correctly.
3340 ;;
3341 ;; XXX: This doesn't work so well unless `comint-prompt-regexp' is set;
3342 ;; perhaps it should prompt for a terminating string (with an
3343 ;; appropriate magic default by examining what we think is the prompt)?
3344 ;;
3345 ;; Fixme: look for appropriate fields, rather than regexp, if
3346 ;; `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is true.

3665 ;; Converting process modes to use comint mode
3666 ;; ===========================================================================
3667 ;; The code in the Emacs 19 distribution has all been modified to use comint
3668 ;; where needed. However, there are `third-party' packages out there that
3669 ;; still use the old shell mode. Here's a guide to conversion.
3670 ;;
3671 ;; Renaming variables
3672 ;; Most of the work is renaming variables and functions. These are the common
3673 ;; ones:
3674 ;; Local variables:
3675 ;; last-input-start comint-last-input-start
3676 ;; last-input-end comint-last-input-end
3677 ;; shell-prompt-pattern comint-prompt-regexp
3678 ;; shell-set-directory-error-hook <no equivalent>
3679 ;; Miscellaneous:
3680 ;; shell-set-directory <unnecessary>
3681 ;; shell-mode-map comint-mode-map
3682 ;; Commands:
3683 ;; shell-send-input comint-send-input
3684 ;; shell-send-eof comint-delchar-or-maybe-eof
3685 ;; kill-shell-input comint-kill-input
3686 ;; interrupt-shell-subjob comint-interrupt-subjob
3687 ;; stop-shell-subjob comint-stop-subjob
3688 ;; quit-shell-subjob comint-quit-subjob
3689 ;; kill-shell-subjob comint-kill-subjob
3690 ;; kill-output-from-shell comint-delete-output
3691 ;; show-output-from-shell comint-show-output
3692 ;; copy-last-shell-input Use comint-previous-input/comint-next-input
3693 ;;
3694 ;; SHELL-SET-DIRECTORY is gone, its functionality taken over by
3695 ;; SHELL-DIRECTORY-TRACKER, the shell mode's comint-input-filter-functions.
3696 ;; Comint mode does not provide functionality equivalent to
3697 ;; shell-set-directory-error-hook; it is gone.
3698 ;;
3699 ;; comint-last-input-start is provided for modes which want to munge
3700 ;; the buffer after input is sent, perhaps because the inferior
3701 ;; insists on echoing the input. The LAST-INPUT-START variable in
3702 ;; the old shell package was used to implement a history mechanism,
3703 ;; but you should think twice before using comint-last-input-start
3704 ;; for this; the input history ring often does the job better.
3705 ;;
3706 ;; If you are implementing some process-in-a-buffer mode, called foo-mode, do
3707 ;; *not* create the comint-mode local variables in your foo-mode function.
3708 ;; This is not modular. Instead, call comint-mode, and let *it* create the
3709 ;; necessary comint-specific local variables. Then create the
3710 ;; foo-mode-specific local variables in foo-mode. Set the buffer's keymap to
3711 ;; be foo-mode-map, and its mode to be foo-mode. Set the comint-mode hooks
3712 ;; (comint-{prompt-regexp, input-filter, input-filter-functions,
3713 ;; get-old-input) that need to be different from the defaults. Call
3714 ;; foo-mode-hook, and you're done. Don't run the comint-mode hook yourself;
3715 ;; comint-mode will take care of it. The following example, from shell.el,
3716 ;; is typical:
3717 ;;
3718 ;; (defvar shell-mode-map '())
3719 ;; (cond ((not shell-mode-map)
3720 ;; (setq shell-mode-map (copy-keymap comint-mode-map))
3721 ;; (define-key shell-mode-map "\C-c\C-f" 'shell-forward-command)
3722 ;; (define-key shell-mode-map "\C-c\C-b" 'shell-backward-command)
3724 ;; (define-key shell-mode-map "\M-?"
3725 ;; 'comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions)))
3726 ;;
3727 ;; (defun shell-mode ()
3728 ;; (interactive)
3729 ;; (comint-mode)
3730 ;; (setq comint-prompt-regexp shell-prompt-pattern)
3731 ;; (setq major-mode 'shell-mode)
3732 ;; (setq mode-name "Shell")
3733 ;; (use-local-map shell-mode-map)
3734 ;; (make-local-variable 'shell-directory-stack)
3735 ;; (setq shell-directory-stack nil)
3736 ;; (add-hook 'comint-input-filter-functions 'shell-directory-tracker)
3737 ;; (run-mode-hooks 'shell-mode-hook))
3738 ;;
3739 ;;
3740 ;; Completion for comint-mode users
3741 ;;
3742 ;; For modes that use comint-mode, comint-dynamic-complete-functions is the
3743 ;; hook to add completion functions to. Functions on this list should return
3744 ;; non-nil if completion occurs (i.e., further completion should not occur).
3745 ;; You could use comint-dynamic-simple-complete to do the bulk of the
3746 ;; completion job.
