This patchset fixes incorrect handling of escaped tokens (`a\ b`) in
Shell autocompletion and LibLine.
The users of LibLine can now choose between two token splitting modes,
either taking into account escapes, or ignoring them.
It was impractical to return a RefPtr<File> since that left us no way
to extract the error string. This is usually needed for the UI, so the
old static open() got basically no use.
These strings would be applied when inserted into the buffer, but are
not shown as part of the suggestion.
This commit also patches up Userland/js and Shell to use this
functionality
Now expanding a tilde isn't hardcoded to just work for `cd`. It is instead
expanded while processing shell arguments. Autocompletion still doesn't
work, but this is definitely an improvement over the last iteration.
`cdh` with no arguments dumps the last 8 cd calls in history, and
`cdh [index]` can be used to cd to re-run a specific index from that
history. `cdh` itself it a thin wrapper of the `cd` builtin.
There's definitely some improvements that can be made for this command,
but this seems like a good starting point for getting a feel for it and
ideas for changing it in the future.
It's not entirely clear whether we should be storing the resolved path -
or simply just the last argument passed to cd. For now we just use the
last path passed into cd as this seemed like the better option for now.
This means:
* invalid paths will still be stored in history (potentially useful)
* cdh's can be repeated for duplicate directory names
* the history looks a little nicer on the eyes
It might make sense to use resolved paths.
Closes#397
This does not work with shell completion yet, but the basics of being
able a cd being able to expand "~" to the current user's home directory,
and "~foo" to the home directory of user "foo" is added in this commit
Work towards: #115
I've been wanting to do this for a long time. It's time we start being
consistent about how this stuff works.
The new convention is:
- "LibFoo" is a userspace library that provides the "Foo" namespace.
That's it :^) This was pretty tedious to convert and I didn't even
start on LibGUI yet. But it's coming up next.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
Using int was a mistake. This patch changes String, StringImpl,
StringView and StringBuilder to use size_t instead of int for lengths.
Obviously a lot of code needs to change as a result of this.
If we can't find an executable to exec() after forking, we don't want
to run the atexit() handlers in the child process. Just use _exit()
instead to avoid this.
This was causing us to write out the shell history to ~/.history every
time a "command not found" error was printed.
This patch reduces the O(n) tab completion to something like O(log(n)).
The cache is just a sorted vector of strings and we binary search it to
get a string matching our input, and then check the surrounding strings
to see if we need to remove any characters. Also we no longer stat each
file every time.
Also added an #include in BinarySearch since it was using size_t. Oops.
If `export` is called, we recache. Need to implement the `hash` builtin
for when an executable has been added to a directory in PATH.
Previously, we did not properly restore termios settings
after running built-in commands. This has been fixed
by ensuring that we only change the termios settings
when we are forking a child process.
Shell.cpp uses its own line discipline which handles
echoing and line editing. Because of this we disable
ICANON and ECHO so that we don't get duplicate characters
or weird line editing errors.
We also revert these settings just before running a command.
This is so that commands may run with proper line editing
and echoing.
