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

596 Interpreter name is same as buffer name, sans the asterisks.
597 Return at end of buffer sends line as input.
598 Return not at end copies rest of line to end and sends it.
599 Setting variable `comint-eol-on-send' means jump to the end of the line
600 before submitting new input.
602 This mode is customized to create major modes such as Inferior Lisp
603 mode, Shell mode, etc. This can be done by setting the hooks
604 `comint-input-filter-functions', `comint-input-filter', `comint-input-sender'
605 and `comint-get-old-input' to appropriate functions, and the variable
606 `comint-prompt-regexp' to the appropriate regular expression.
608 The mode maintains an input history of size `comint-input-ring-size'.
609 You can access this with the commands \\[comint-next-input],
610 \\[comint-previous-input], and \\[comint-dynamic-list-input-ring].
611 Input ring history expansion can be achieved with the commands
612 \\[comint-replace-by-expanded-history] or \\[comint-magic-space].
613 Input ring expansion is controlled by the variable `comint-input-autoexpand',
614 and addition is controlled by the variable `comint-input-ignoredups'.
616 Commands with no default key bindings include `send-invisible',
617 `comint-dynamic-complete', `comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions', and
618 `comint-magic-space'.
620 Input to, and output from, the subprocess can cause the window to scroll to
621 the end of the buffer. See variables `comint-output-filter-functions',
622 `comint-preoutput-filter-functions', `comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input',
623 and `comint-move-point-for-output'.

1685 it to the process mark, and sends it.
1687 This command also sends and inserts a final newline, unless

1691 `comint-input-autoexpand'. The list of function names contained in the value
1692 of `comint-input-filter-functions' is called on the input before sending it.
1693 The input is entered into the input history ring, if the value of variable
1694 `comint-input-filter' returns non-nil when called on the input.
1696 If variable `comint-eol-on-send' is non-nil, then point is moved to the

1699 After the input has been sent, if `comint-process-echoes' is non-nil,

1705 The values of `comint-get-old-input', `comint-input-filter-functions', and
1706 `comint-input-filter' are chosen according to the command interpreter running
1707 in the buffer. E.g.,
1709 If the interpreter is the csh,
1710 `comint-get-old-input' is the default:
1711 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is nil, then
1712 either return the current input field, if point is on an input
1713 field, or the current line, if point is on an output field.
1714 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is non-nil, then
1715 return the current line with any initial string matching the
1716 regexp `comint-prompt-regexp' removed.
1717 `comint-input-filter-functions' monitors input for \"cd\", \"pushd\", and
1718 \"popd\" commands. When it sees one, it cd's the buffer.
1719 `comint-input-filter' is the default: returns t if the input isn't all white
1722 If the Comint is Lucid Common Lisp,
1723 `comint-get-old-input' snarfs the sexp ending at point.
1724 `comint-input-filter-functions' does nothing.
1725 `comint-input-filter' returns nil if the input matches input-filter-regexp,

2656 ;; Alas, these guys don't do exactly the right thing for Lisp, Scheme

2658 ;; So the compile/load interface gets the wrong default occasionally.
2659 ;; The load-file/compile-file default mechanism could be smarter -- it
2660 ;; doesn't know about the relationship between filename extensions and
2661 ;; whether the file is source or executable. If you compile foo.lisp
2662 ;; with compile-file, then the next load-file should use foo.bin for
2663 ;; the default, not foo.lisp. This is tricky to do right, particularly
2664 ;; because the extension for executable files varies so much (.o, .bin,
2665 ;; .lbin, .mo, .vo, .ao, ...).

2671 ;; COMINT-CHECK-SOURCE -- if FNAME is in a modified buffer, asks you if you

2676 ;; for the file to process.

2681 PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE is a pair (DIRECTORY . FILENAME) from the last
2682 source-file processing command, or nil if there hasn't been one yet.
2683 SOURCE-MODES is a list used to determine what buffers contain source
2684 files: if the major mode of the buffer is in SOURCE-MODES, it's source.
2685 Typically, (lisp-mode) or (scheme-mode).
2687 If the command is given while the cursor is inside a string, *and*
2688 the string is an existing filename, *and* the filename is not a directory,
2689 then the string is taken as default. This allows you to just position
2690 your cursor over a string that's a filename and have it taken as default.
2692 If the command is given in a file buffer whose major mode is in
2693 SOURCE-MODES, then the filename is the default file, and the
2694 file's directory is the default directory.
2696 If the buffer isn't a source file buffer (e.g., it's the process buffer),
2697 then the default directory & file are what was used in the last source-file
2698 processing command (i.e., PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE). If this is the first time
2699 the command has been run (PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE is nil), the default directory
2700 is the cwd, with no default file. (\"no default file\" = nil)
2702 SOURCE-MODES is typically going to be something like (tea-mode)
2703 for T programs, (lisp-mode) for Lisp programs, (soar-mode lisp-mode)
2704 for Soar programs, etc.

3310 ;; This little add-on for comint is intended to make it easy to get
3311 ;; output from currently active comint buffers into another buffer,
3312 ;; or buffers, and then go back to using the comint shell.
3314 ;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
3315 ;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
3316 ;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
3317 ;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
3318 ;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
3319 ;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
3320 ;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
3322 ;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
3323 ;; preoutput filter functions (`comint-preoutput-filter-functions') to use
3324 ;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
3325 ;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
3326 ;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, `comint-prompt-regexp'). When it
3327 ;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
3328 ;; `comint-redirect-hook'.
3330 ;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
3331 ;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
3333 ;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
3334 ;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
3335 ;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
3336 ;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
3337 ;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
3338 ;; this prompt is set correctly.
3340 ;; XXX: This doesn't work so well unless `comint-prompt-regexp' is set;
3341 ;; perhaps it should prompt for a terminating string (with an
3342 ;; appropriate magic default by examining what we think is the prompt)?
3344 ;; Fixme: look for appropriate fields, rather than regexp, if
3345 ;; `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is true.
