2012-11-27Allow cmd-run-shell to accept -t to specify the pane to display theNicholas Marriott
output, requested by Alexander Tsepkov.
2012-07-11Make command exec functions return an enum rather than -1/0/1 values andNicholas Marriott
add a new value to mean "leave client running but don't attach" to fix problems with using some commands in a command sequence. Most of the work by Thomas Adam, problem reported by "jspenguin" on SF bug 3535531.

2011-01-26Simplify the way jobs work and drop the persist type, so all jobs areNicholas Marriott
fire-and-forget. Status jobs now managed with two trees of output (new and old), rather than storing the output in the jobs themselves. When the status line is processed any jobs which don't appear in the new tree are started and the output from the old tree displayed. When a job finishes it updates the new tree with its output and that is used for any subsequent redraws. When the status interval expires, the new tree is moved to the old so that all jobs are run again. This fixes the "#(echo %H:%M:%S)" problem which would lead to thousands of identical persistent jobs and high memory use (this can still be achieved by adding "sleep 30" but that is much less likely to happen by accident).
2011-01-04Clean up and simplify tmux command argument parsing.Nicholas Marriott
Originally, tmux commands were parsed in the client process into a struct with the command data which was then serialised and sent to the server to be executed. The parsing was later moved into the server (an argv was sent from the client), but the parse step and intermediate struct was kept. This change removes that struct and the separate parse step. Argument parsing and printing is now common to all commands (in arguments.c) with each command left with just an optional check function (to validate the arguments at parse time), the exec function and a function to set up any key bindings (renamed from the old init function). This is overall more simple and consistent. There should be no changes to any commands behaviour or syntax although as this touches every command please watch for any unexpected changes.
2010-07-24When changing so that the client passes its stdout and stderr as well asNicholas Marriott
stdin up to the server, I forgot one essential point - the tmux server could now be both the producer and consumer. This happens when tmux is run inside tmux, as well as when piping tmux commands together. So, using stdio(3) was a bad idea - if sufficient data was written, this could block in write(2). When that happened and the server was both producer and consumer, it deadlocks. Change to use libevent bufferevents for the client stdin, stdout and stderr instead. This is trivial enough for output but requires a callback mechanism to trigger when stdin is finished. This relies on the underlying polling mechanism for libevent to work with whatever devices to which the user could redirect stdin, stdout or stderr, hence the change to use poll(2) over kqueue(2) for tmux.
2010-07-11Return the command client return code with MSG_EXIT now that MSG_ERROR andNicholas Marriott
MSG_PRINT are unused. New clients should be compatible with old tmux servers but vice versa may print an error.
2010-05-25Don't die if the client has been detached when the job finishes, justNicholas Marriott
don't display the output.
2009-11-13Get rid of the ugly CMD_CHFLAG macro and use a const string (eg "dDU") in theNicholas Marriott
command entry structs and a couple of functions to check/set the flags.
2009-11-04Switch jobs over to use a bufferevent.Nicholas Marriott
2009-11-01Add a flag for jobs that shouldn't be freed after they've died and use it forNicholas Marriott
status jobs, then only kill those jobs when status-left, status-right or set-titles-string is changed. Fixes problems with changing options from inside #().
2009-10-11Remove a debugging leftover and add copyright.Nicholas Marriott
2009-10-11Switch run-shell over to queue the command in the background like #().Nicholas Marriott
2009-09-20run-shell command to run a shell command without opening a window, sendingNicholas Marriott
stdout to output mode.
