2018-04-26Always insert single match of explicit complete functionBert Münnich
If an explicit complete function has only one match but is used directly after the default tab completion, than the single match is shown instead of inserted. The solution is resetting the 'rl_last_func' variable if it is set to 'rl_complete' when using an explicit complete function.
2018-04-26Custom readline commands for explicit completionsBert Münnich
New commands: - rc-complete-command, per default bound to "M-!" - rc-complete-filename, "M-/" - rc-complete-variable, "M-$" These commands are useful, if one wants a specific type of completion which is not performed by the context-senstive default one, e.g. filename completion at the beginning of the line or command completion for the second word (after sudo). The readline code now also sets the application name to "rc", making it possible to specify different bindings for these commands in ~/.inputrc: $if rc "\C-x\C-[": rc-complete-command "\C-[\C-x": rc-complete-filename "\C-x\C-v": rc-complete-variable $endif
2018-04-26Completion of command names and variablesBert Münnich
New completion entry functions for readline specific code: - compl_var for variables - compl_fn for functions - compl_builtin for builtins - compl_extcmd for external commands in path - compl_command, which combines the last three The first three are simple wrappers for compl_name, which iterates over a typical rc table (an array of structs) yielding the name fields. The appropriate completion entry function is chosen based on the character/token that preceeds the word to complete: '$' for variable, beginning of line or one of [`@|&(){;] for command. Otherwise the shell falls back to readline's default completion, which it also does, if the chosen completion entry function finds no match.

2015-11-28Restore signal handlers when catching signals in edit_alloc()Bert Münnich
edit_catcher() performs a longjmp via rc_raise() to the matching setjmp in doit(). The latter does the same as before, so that edit_alloc() gets called again, but this time the installation of the signal handlers trashes the old handlers saved in the last call. Once readline() returns normally to edit_alloc() the wrong signal handlers get restored. The simplified call hierarchy looks like this: doit(); sigsetjmp(); edit_alloc(); oldint = sys_signal(SIGINT, edit_catcher); readline(); SIGINT -> edit_catcher(); siglongjmp(); sys_signal(SIGINT, oldint); Restoring the old signal handlers in edit_catcher() solves this.
