Re: String escape for total number of windows?
Thanks for the patch. I was looking for this functionality. 2009/12/18, Thor Andreassen t...@toggle.be: On Thu, Dec 10, 2009 at 10:25:11PM -0800, John Magolske wrote: Is there a string escape sequence that will display the total number of windows (just a single number, not all window numbers and names)? There does not seem to be. For example, if I were in the 7th window and 23 windows were open, I'd like to see something like 7 / 23 : vim ~/.mutt/temp/mutt-1000-25786-33 by setting hardstatus to something like hardstatus alwayslastline %n / %x : %t Of course %x is not an escape for anything, I'm just using it here as a placeholder...there doesn't seem to be an escape for total number of windows. Might it be possible to achieve this by truncating the output of %w or some such thing? Looking at the code, at least with my eyes, truncation seems difficult and will probably end up as a hack. I've attached a patch that copies some of the functionality of the '%w' handling, and should be applied to the newest source on savannah. It seems to produce the correct result, although someone more familiar with the code should check it for any unwanted consequences.

Are there any screen packagers on this list? I am contemplating a sort of a beta-release somewhat soon-ish (still non-trivial amount of work to do, though, so no ETA yet), and was thinking if this list is the best place to reach the packagers. Hi, I'm the maintainer for Fedora. You can see the patches we are currently using here: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/devel/screen/ Thanks for the link. I looked at a number of them: screen-4.0.1-args.patch Applied after some change (7ac593d74dfd2243cd60c5d848547ebd9971a8b0). I didn't include the change in ansi.c: w_NumArgs should never be negative. If something is causing is to be set to a negative number, then that's a bug and we need to figure where/why/how that happens, so the real bug can be fixed. screen-4.0.2-maxstr.patch It looks like MAXSTR has been increased to 512. It can still be increased more, of course. Is there a bug-report somewhere that requested for this change? I would like to know exactly what problems the limitations caused. screen-4.0.3-libs.patch I plan to take a look at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?27318 first. screen-4.0.3-resize.patch Already in. screen-4.0.3-ipv6.patch Need to take a closer look. screen-4.0.3-stropts.patch I believe e3b1d2c50a5cc84a0985dbf608b9ee47996b7e47 takes care of this? (i.e. using HAVE_STROPTS_H) Cheers, Sadrul ___ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
Re: Cannot set $TERM in screen -- it always defaults to xterm
What shell are you using, and does the problem persist if you start your shell without config files? That seemed to be the problem -- by .bashrc had export TERM=xterm. I still don't understand why that would override trying to set TERM directly in screen, but after I had removed the line from bashrc and toyed around with $TERM setting, I was able to get 256 color support under xterm. ___ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
