26 ;;; Commentary:
28 ;; Shell directory tracking by watching the prompt.
30 ;; This is yet another attempt at a directory-tracking package for
31 ;; Emacs shell-mode. However, this package makes one strong assumption:
32 ;; that you can customize your shell's prompt to contain the
33 ;; current working directory. Most shells do support this, including
34 ;; almost every type of Bourne and C shell on Unix, the native shells on
35 ;; Windows95 (COMMAND.COM) and Windows NT (CMD.EXE), and most 3rd party
36 ;; Windows shells. If you cannot do this, or do not wish to, this package
37 ;; will be useless to you.
39 ;; Installation:
41 ;; 1) Set your shell's prompt to contain the current working directory.
42 ;; You may need to consult your shell's documentation to find out how to
43 ;; do this.
45 ;; Note that directory tracking is done by matching regular expressions,
46 ;; therefore it is *VERY IMPORTANT* for your prompt to be easily
47 ;; distinguishable from other output. If your prompt regexp is too general,
48 ;; you will see error messages from the dirtrack filter as it attempts to cd
49 ;; to non-existent directories.
51 ;; 2) Set the variable `dirtrack-list' to an appropriate value. This
52 ;; should be a list of two elements: the first is a regular expression
53 ;; which matches your prompt up to and including the pathname part.
54 ;; The second is a number which tells which regular expression group to
55 ;; match to extract only the pathname. If you use a multi-line prompt,
56 ;; add 't' as a third element. Note that some of the functions in
57 ;; 'comint.el' assume a single-line prompt (eg, comint-bol).
59 ;; Determining this information may take some experimentation. Setting
60 ;; the variable `dirtrack-debug' may help; it causes the directory-tracking
61 ;; filter to log messages to the buffer `dirtrack-debug-buffer'. You can easily
62 ;; toggle this setting with the `dirtrack-debug-toggle' function.
64 ;; 3) Add a hook to shell-mode to enable the directory tracking:
66 ;; (add-hook 'shell-mode-hook
67 ;; (function (lambda ()
68 ;; (setq comint-preoutput-filter-functions
69 ;; (append (list 'dirtrack)
70 ;; comint-preoutput-filter-functions)))))
72 ;; You may wish to turn ordinary shell tracking off by calling
73 ;; `shell-dirtrack-toggle' or setting `shell-dirtrackp'.
75 ;; Examples:
77 ;; 1) On Windows NT, my prompt is set to emacs$S$P$G.
78 ;; 'dirtrack-list' is set to (list "^emacs \\([a-zA-Z]:.*\\)>" 1)
80 ;; 2) On Solaris running bash, my prompt is set like this:
81 ;; PS1="\w\012emacs@\h(\!) [\t]% "
82 ;; 'dirtrack-list' is set to (list "^\\([/~].*\\)\nemacs@[^%]+% *" 1 t)
84 ;; I'd appreciate other examples from people who use this package.
86 ;; Here's one from Stephen Eglen:
88 ;; Running under tcsh:
89 ;; (setq-default dirtrack-list '("^%E \\([^ ]+\\)" 1))
91 ;; It might be worth mentioning in your file that emacs sources start up
92 ;; files of the form: ~/.emacs_<SHELL> where <SHELL> is the name of the
93 ;; shell. So for example, I have the following in ~/.emacs_tcsh:
95 ;; set prompt = "%%E %~ %h% "
97 ;; This produces a prompt of the form:
98 ;; %E /var/spool 10%
100 ;; This saves me from having to use the %E prefix in other non-emacs
101 ;; shells.
103 ;; A final note:
105 ;; I run LOTS of shell buffers through Emacs, sometimes as different users
106 ;; (eg, when logged in as myself, I'll run a root shell in the same Emacs).
107 ;; If you do this, and the shell prompt contains a ~, Emacs will interpret
108 ;; this relative to the user which owns the Emacs process, not the user
109 ;; who owns the shell buffer. This may cause dirtrack to behave strangely
110 ;; (typically it reports that it is unable to cd to a directory
111 ;; with a ~ in it).
113 ;; The same behavior can occur if you use dirtrack with remote filesystems
114 ;; (using telnet, rlogin, etc) as Emacs will be checking the local
115 ;; filesystem, not the remote one. This problem is not specific to dirtrack,
116 ;; but also affects file completion, etc.
