Good day! I'm a long-time emacs user as well as a long-time hyperbole user. (Both great products, BTW!)
I've run in to an odd problem, which I just figured out today changed sometime after hyperbole v8.0.0. I'm a system admin and use comint to open shells in emacs. (I know. I've been doing this for a long time.) Regardless, in the past I've been able to action-key on any path in my shell window and hyperbole does the right thing. Recently-ish I've noticed that the action-key quit working on paths in my shell windows. So I just switched to ffap, which I'm not wild about since it's an interrupt to my thinking (I just want the action-key to do it's thing! :-D). Today I was thinking that I remember that the action-key always used to do the right thing in shell windows. So I started going back to earlier hyperbole versions. I went from v9.0.1 back to v8.0.2pre (which I had laying around). The problem still persisted. Then I switched back to v8.0.0 (again, which I had laying around). And the action-key once again works in shell windows like I expect/hope it to work! All of this is just to ask how do I go about debugging this? When it fails in the newer versions, the error I get is: (Hyperbole Action Key): No action defined for this context; try another location And in the *Messages* buffer I see: let: (Hyperbole Action Key): No action defined for this context; try another location One thing that I discovered is that if the path is on a line by itself (no other text before or after it, that is), then the action-key will work. But in my case I'm looking at all different sorts of output and the path is almost never on a line with no other text. Can someone give me some ideas about where to look or how to start debugging?
