- - command bits and pieces:
- * allow multiple targets: fnmatch for -t/-c, for example detach all
- clients with -t*
- * add -c for new-session like new-window
- * ' and " should be parsed the same (eg "\e" vs '\e') in config
- and command prompt
- * last-pane across sessions
- * list-keys should quote output so that bindings can just be used in
- config file as-is
- - make command sequences more usable
- * don't require space after ;
- * options for error handling: && and ||?
- - options bits and pieces:
- * set-remain-on-exit is a complete hack
- * way to set socket path from config file
- - format improvements:
- * option to quote format (#{q:session_name})
- * formats need conditions for >0 (for #P)
- * some way to pad # stuff with spaces
- * formats to show if a window is linked into multiple sessions, into
- multiple attached sessions, and is the active window in multiple
- attached sessions?
- - choose mode improvements:
- * choose-pane command (augment choose-tree to do this?)
- * choose-mode and copy-mode are very similar, make choose-mode a subset?
- * flag to choose-* for sort order
- * choose mode would be better per client than per window?
- * two choices (first one then second, for swap-pane and join-pane)
- * choose modes should ditch the key bindings and just have fixed keys, and
- be more customized to their purpose (d to delete a buffer for choose-buffer,
- a preview of buffer contents, etc)
- - improve monitor-*:
- * straighten out rules for multiple clients
- * think about what happens across sessions
- * monitor changes within a region
- * perhaps monitor /all/ panes in the window not just one
- - improve mouse support:
- * bind commands to mouse in different areas?
- * commands executed when clicking on a pattern (URL)
- - hooks!
- - warts on current naming:
- * display-time but message-fg/bg/attr
- * list-* vs show-*
- * split-window -> split-pane?
- - better UTF-8 support:
- * message display
- * prompt input
- * searching in copy mode
- - copy/paste improvements:
- * incremental searching
- * paste w/o trailing whitespace
- * command to toggle selection not to move it in copy-mode
- * regex searching
- * copy-pipe should have -x as well
- * copy mode key bindings should just be a standard key table, using
- something like "copy-mode start-selection"; it could use
- command-prompt for search, goto, etc:
- bind -Temacs command-prompt -p'Search Up: ' 'copy-mode search-up %%'
- it'd need a separate lookup, because modes are per-pane, perhaps a
- table() cb to give the table name ("vi" or "emacs"). anything in the
- table fires the command, anything not in the table is injected as a
- key
- * searching in copy mode should unwrap lines, so if you seach for "foobar"
- then it should be found even if it is now "foo\nbar" (if the WRAP flag
- is set on the line)
- * {} to go to next/previous blank line in copy mode
- - layout stuff
- * way to tag a layout as a number/name
- * maybe keep last layout + size around and if size reverts just put it
- back
- * revamp layouts: they are too complicated, should be more closely
- integrated, should support hints, layout sets should just be a
- special case of custom layouts, and we should support panes that are
- not attached to a cell at all. this could be the time to introduce
- panelink to replace layout_cell
- * way to set hints/limits about pane size for resizing
- * panning over window (window larger than visible)
- * a mode where one application can cross two panes (ie x|y, width =
- COLUMNS/2 but height = ROWS * 2)
- * general key to space cells out evenly (horiz or vert) within their
- parent cell (could replace even-vert/even-horiz layouts)
- * separate active panes for different clients
- - terminfo bits
- * use a better termcap internally instead of screen, perhaps xterm
- * use screen-256color when started on 256 colour terminal?
- - code cleanup
- * instead of separate window and session options, just one master
- options list with each option having a type (window or session), then
- options on window, on session, and global. for window options we look
- window->session->global, and for session we look session->global
- * the way pane, window, session destroy is handled is too complicated
- and the distinction between session.c, window.c and server-fn.c
- functions is not clear. could we just have kill_pane(),
- kill_window(), unlink_window(), kill_session() that fix up all data
- structures (flagging sessions as dead) and return a value to say
- whether clients need to be checked for dead sessions? sort of like
- session_detach now but more so. or some other scheme to make it
- simpler and clearer? also would be nice to remove/rename server-fn.c
- * more readable way to work out the various things commands need to
- know about the client, notably:
- - is this the config file? (cmdq->c == NULL)
- - is this a command client? (cmdq->c != NULL &&
- cmdq->c->session == NULL)
- - is this a control client?
- - can i do stdin or stdout to this client?
- or even guarantee that cmdq->c != NULL and provide a better way to
- tell when in the config file - then we use cmdq->c if we need a
- client w/o a session else cmd_current_client
- * optimize pane redraws, 20120318184853.GK10965@yelena.nicm.ath.cx
- - miscellaneous
- * way to keep a job running just read its last line of output for #()
- * link panes into multiple windows
- * live update: server started with -U connects to server, requests
- sessions and windows, receives file descriptors
- * there are inconsistencies in what we get from old shell and what
- comes from config for new sessions and windows. likewise, panes and
- jobs and run-shell and lock command all start with slightly different
- environments
- * multiline status line? separate command prompt and status line?
- * customizable command aliases
- * automatic pane logging
- * BCE? We are halfway there (output side is done for pane backgrounds),
- just need to change how screen/grid handles erase
