26 ;;; Commentary:
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.
38 ;;
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.

156 "Regexp to recognize prompts in the inferior process.
159 This variable is only used if the variable
160 `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is non-nil.
162 Good choices:
173 "If non-nil, the comint prompt is read only.
174 The read only region includes the newline before the prompt.
175 This does not affect existing prompts.
176 Certain derived modes may override this option.
178 If you set this option to t, then the safe way to temporarily
179 override the read-only-ness of comint prompts is to call
180 `comint-kill-whole-line' or `comint-kill-region' with no
181 narrowing in effect. This way you will be certain that none of
182 the remaining prompts will be accidentally messed up. You may
183 wish to put something like the following in your `.emacs' file:
185 \(add-hook 'comint-mode-hook
186 (lambda ()
188 (define-key comint-mode-map [C-S-backspace]
189 'comint-kill-whole-line)))
191 If you sometimes use comint-mode on text-only terminals or with `emacs -nw',
192 you might wish to use another binding for `comint-kill-whole-line'."

210 This mirrors the optional behavior of tcsh (its autoexpand and histlist).
212 If the value is `input', then the expansion is seen on input.
213 If the value is `history', then the expansion is only when inserting
214 into the buffer's input ring. See also `comint-magic-space' and
215 `comint-dynamic-complete'.

242 "If non-nil, name of the file to read/write input history.
243 See also `comint-read-input-ring' and `comint-write-input-ring'.

362 This function is called when return is typed while the point is in old

600 Setting variable `comint-eol-on-send' means jump to the end of the line

603 This mode is customized to create major modes such as Inferior Lisp

605 `comint-input-filter-functions', `comint-input-filter', `comint-input-sender'
606 and `comint-get-old-input' to appropriate functions, and the variable
607 `comint-prompt-regexp' to the appropriate regular expression.
609 The mode maintains an input history of size `comint-input-ring-size'.
612 Input ring history expansion can be achieved with the commands
614 Input ring expansion is controlled by the variable `comint-input-autoexpand',
615 and addition is controlled by the variable `comint-input-ignoredups'.
617 Commands with no default key bindings include `send-invisible',
618 `comint-dynamic-complete', `comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions', and
619 `comint-magic-space'.

1706 it to the process mark, and sends it.
1708 This command also sends and inserts a final newline, unless

1711 Any history reference may be expanded depending on the value of the variable
1712 `comint-input-autoexpand'. The list of function names contained in the value
1713 of `comint-input-filter-functions' is called on the input before sending it.
1714 The input is entered into the input history ring, if the value of variable
1715 `comint-input-filter' returns non-nil when called on the input.
1717 If variable `comint-eol-on-send' is non-nil, then point is moved to the
1718 end of line before sending the input.
1720 After the input has been sent, if `comint-process-echoes' is non-nil,

1726 The values of `comint-get-old-input', `comint-input-filter-functions', and
1727 `comint-input-filter' are chosen according to the command interpreter running
1728 in the buffer. E.g.,
1730 If the interpreter is the csh,
1731 `comint-get-old-input' is the default:
1732 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is nil, then
1733 either return the current input field, if point is on an input
1734 field, or the current line, if point is on an output field.
1735 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is non-nil, then
1736 return the current line with any initial string matching the
1737 regexp `comint-prompt-regexp' removed.
1740 `comint-input-filter' is the default: returns t if the input isn't all white
1741 space.
1743 If the Comint is Lucid Common Lisp,
1744 `comint-get-old-input' snarfs the sexp ending at point.
1745 `comint-input-filter-functions' does nothing.
1746 `comint-input-filter' returns nil if the input matches input-filter-regexp,
1747 which matches (1) all whitespace (2) :a, :c, etc.

2669 ;; Support for source-file processing commands.
2670 ;;============================================================================
2671 ;; Many command-interpreters (e.g., Lisp, Scheme, Soar) have
2672 ;; commands that process files of source text (e.g. loading or compiling
2673 ;; files). So the corresponding process-in-a-buffer modes have commands
2674 ;; for doing this (e.g., lisp-load-file). The functions below are useful
2675 ;; for defining these commands.
2676 ;;
2677 ;; Alas, these guys don't do exactly the right thing for Lisp, Scheme
2678 ;; and Soar, in that they don't know anything about file extensions.
2679 ;; So the compile/load interface gets the wrong default occasionally.
2680 ;; The load-file/compile-file default mechanism could be smarter -- it
2681 ;; doesn't know about the relationship between filename extensions and
2682 ;; whether the file is source or executable. If you compile foo.lisp
2683 ;; with compile-file, then the next load-file should use foo.bin for
2684 ;; the default, not foo.lisp. This is tricky to do right, particularly
2685 ;; because the extension for executable files varies so much (.o, .bin,
2686 ;; .lbin, .mo, .vo, .ao, ...).
2689 ;; COMINT-SOURCE-DEFAULT -- determines defaults for source-file processing
2690 ;; commands.

2704 SOURCE-MODES is a list used to determine what buffers contain source
2705 files: if the major mode of the buffer is in SOURCE-MODES, it's source.
2706 Typically, (lisp-mode) or (scheme-mode).
2708 If the command is given while the cursor is inside a string, *and*

3374 ;; This little add-on for comint is intended to make it easy to get
3375 ;; output from currently active comint buffers into another buffer,
3376 ;; or buffers, and then go back to using the comint shell.
3377 ;;
3378 ;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
3379 ;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
3380 ;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
3381 ;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
3382 ;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
3383 ;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
3384 ;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
3385 ;;
3386 ;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
3387 ;; preoutput filter functions (`comint-preoutput-filter-functions') to use
3388 ;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
3389 ;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
3390 ;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, `comint-prompt-regexp'). When it
3391 ;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
3392 ;; `comint-redirect-hook'.
3393 ;;
3394 ;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
3395 ;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
3396 ;;
3397 ;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
3398 ;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
3399 ;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
3400 ;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
3401 ;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
3402 ;; this prompt is set correctly.
3403 ;;
3404 ;; XXX: This doesn't work so well unless `comint-prompt-regexp' is set;
3405 ;; perhaps it should prompt for a terminating string (with an
3406 ;; appropriate magic default by examining what we think is the prompt)?
3407 ;;
3408 ;; Fixme: look for appropriate fields, rather than regexp, if
3409 ;; `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is true.

3728 ;; Converting process modes to use comint mode
3729 ;; ===========================================================================
3730 ;; The code in the Emacs 19 distribution has all been modified to use comint
3731 ;; where needed. However, there are `third-party' packages out there that
3732 ;; still use the old shell mode. Here's a guide to conversion.
3733 ;;
3734 ;; Renaming variables
3735 ;; Most of the work is renaming variables and functions. These are the common
3736 ;; ones:
3737 ;; Local variables:
3738 ;; last-input-start comint-last-input-start
3739 ;; last-input-end comint-last-input-end
3740 ;; shell-prompt-pattern comint-prompt-regexp
3741 ;; shell-set-directory-error-hook <no equivalent>
3742 ;; Miscellaneous:
3743 ;; shell-set-directory <unnecessary>
3744 ;; shell-mode-map comint-mode-map
3745 ;; Commands:
3746 ;; shell-send-input comint-send-input
3747 ;; shell-send-eof comint-delchar-or-maybe-eof
3748 ;; kill-shell-input comint-kill-input
3749 ;; interrupt-shell-subjob comint-interrupt-subjob
3750 ;; stop-shell-subjob comint-stop-subjob
3751 ;; quit-shell-subjob comint-quit-subjob
3752 ;; kill-shell-subjob comint-kill-subjob
3753 ;; kill-output-from-shell comint-delete-output
3754 ;; show-output-from-shell comint-show-output
3755 ;; copy-last-shell-input Use comint-previous-input/comint-next-input
3756 ;;
3757 ;; SHELL-SET-DIRECTORY is gone, its functionality taken over by
3758 ;; SHELL-DIRECTORY-TRACKER, the shell mode's comint-input-filter-functions.
3759 ;; Comint mode does not provide functionality equivalent to
3760 ;; shell-set-directory-error-hook; it is gone.
3761 ;;
3762 ;; comint-last-input-start is provided for modes which want to munge
3763 ;; the buffer after input is sent, perhaps because the inferior
3764 ;; insists on echoing the input. The LAST-INPUT-START variable in
3765 ;; the old shell package was used to implement a history mechanism,
3766 ;; but you should think twice before using comint-last-input-start
3767 ;; for this; the input history ring often does the job better.
3768 ;;
3769 ;; If you are implementing some process-in-a-buffer mode, called foo-mode, do
3770 ;; *not* create the comint-mode local variables in your foo-mode function.
3771 ;; This is not modular. Instead, call comint-mode, and let *it* create the
3772 ;; necessary comint-specific local variables. Then create the
3773 ;; foo-mode-specific local variables in foo-mode. Set the buffer's keymap to
3774 ;; be foo-mode-map, and its mode to be foo-mode. Set the comint-mode hooks
3775 ;; (comint-{prompt-regexp, input-filter, input-filter-functions,
3776 ;; get-old-input) that need to be different from the defaults. Call
3777 ;; foo-mode-hook, and you're done. Don't run the comint-mode hook yourself;
3778 ;; comint-mode will take care of it. The following example, from shell.el,
3779 ;; is typical:
3780 ;;
3781 ;; (defvar shell-mode-map '())
3782 ;; (cond ((not shell-mode-map)
3783 ;; (setq shell-mode-map (copy-keymap comint-mode-map))
3784 ;; (define-key shell-mode-map "\C-c\C-f" 'shell-forward-command)
3785 ;; (define-key shell-mode-map "\C-c\C-b" 'shell-backward-command)
3787 ;; (define-key shell-mode-map "\M-?"
3788 ;; 'comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions)))
3789 ;;
3790 ;; (defun shell-mode ()
3791 ;; (interactive)
3792 ;; (comint-mode)
3793 ;; (setq comint-prompt-regexp shell-prompt-pattern)

3802 ;;
3803 ;; Completion for comint-mode users
3804 ;;
3805 ;; For modes that use comint-mode, comint-dynamic-complete-functions is the
3806 ;; hook to add completion functions to. Functions on this list should return
