So, I'm trying to stuff some default text into a user input using readline, and having trouble getting it to work on OSX 10.5: // rl_insert_text_ex.c // gcc -o rl_insert_text_ex rl_insert_text_ex.c -lreadline #include <stdio.h> #include <readline/readline.h> int my_startup_hook(void) { return rl_insert_text("ponycorns"); } int main(i...
In my .zshrc, I use the following snippet to integrate the shell's clipboard and my primary X11 clipboard. Thanks to this integration, I can cut-and-paste text to and from emacs, firefox, and the terminal without having to use the mouse. kill-line() { zle .kill-line ; echo -n $CUTBUFFER | xclip -i } zle -N kill-line # bound on C-k yank...

I'm using this code for the history features in my shell: http://cc.byexamples.com/20080613/gnu-readline-how-to-keep-a-history-list-of-entered-command-lines/ but when I compile this using gcc, I got this error $ gcc filename.c /tmp/ccay2CgM.o: In function `main': rl.c:(.text+0x9): undefined reference to `rl_abort' rl.c:(.text+0x13): u...
I'm writing a cross-platform shell like program in python and I'd like to add custom tab-completion actions. On Unix systems I can use the built-in readline module and use code like the following to specify a list of possible completions when I hit the TAB key: import readline readline.parse_and_bind( 'tab: complete' ) readline.set_comp...
Hi, Bit support question. Apologies for that. I have an application linked with GNU readline. The application can invoke shell commands (similar to invoking tclsh using readline wrapper). When I try to invoke the Linux less command, I get the following error: Suspend (tty output) I'm not an expert around issues of terminals. I've tried...
I have a file in UTF-8, where some lines contain the U+2028 Line Separator character (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2028/index.htm). I don't want it to be treated as a line break when I read lines from the file. Is there a way to exclude it from separators when I iterate over the file or use readlines()? (Besides reading t...

Jython 2.5 comes with JLine per default. I would prefer to use the interactive interpreter with rlwrap. It seems that rlwrap is not working if JLine is active. In Scala I would use rlwrap scala -Xnojline. Is there a similar option for Jython to deactivate JLine? ...

Is there a way of using raw_input without leaving a sign in the readline history, so that it don't show when tab-completing? ...
I've written a simple shell-like program that uses readline in order to provide smart completion of arguments. I would like the mechanism to support arguments that have spaces and are quoted to signify as one argument (as with providing the shell with such). I've seen that shlex.split() knows how to parse quoted arguments, but in case ...
I have csv files with the following format: CSV FILE "a" , "b" , "c" , "d" hello, world , 1 , 2 , 3 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 , 2 , 456 , 87 h,1231232,3 , 3 , 45 , 44 The problem is that the first field has commas "," in it. I have no control over file generation, as that's the format I receive them i...
I want to change the delimiters bash (or readline) uses to separate words. Specifically I want to make '-' not delimit words, so that if I have the text ls some-file and I press Alt-Backspace it deletes the entire some-file text and not just up to the '-' char. This will also cause deletions of long flags like --group-directories-firs...
Hi all, i'm importing several parts of a Databasedump in text Format into MySQL, the problem is that before the interesting Data there is very much non-interesting stuff infront. I wrote this loop to get to the needed data: def readloop(DBFILE): txtdb=open(DBFILE, 'r') sline = "" # loop till 1st "customernum:" is found while slin...
Simply I have been trying to implement what BufferedStreamReader does in Java. I have a socket stream open and just want to read it in a line oriented fashion -line by line. I have following server-code while (continueProcess) { try { StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(Socket.GetStrea...
Hello, In my C# app I'm trying to feed into ReadLine() a simple text document with 7 digit strings separated line by line. What I'm attempting to do is grab the next 7 digit string each time the function is called. Here's what I have so far: string invoiceNumberFunc() { string path = @"C:\Users\sam\Documents\GCProg\testRead...
I use GNU Readline in the "select" fashion, by registering a callback function like so: rl_callback_handler_install("", on_readline_input); And then hooking up rl_callback_read_char as the callback for my select() loop for STDIN_FILENO. That's all pretty standard stuff, and works fine. Now, my program asynchronously prints messages ...
