Thanks for detailing the thinking and behavior of "output pane command
execution" - but on this last point were you saying that I should read
the command line subsystem doc to see how I could substitute a
different command shell (like, say, /bin/sh)? Because I reviewed the
relevant doc and do not see how to do that...
If you are running on GTK+ then /bin/sh is used so other shells
need to be invoked explicitly. See xsystem in scite/gtk/SciTEGTK.cxx.
No, you know I am a dyed-in-the-wool Windows person... who has been
using the GTK (but still Win32) version of *Scintilla* for my OCaml
stuff. :)
I looked at "xsystem" in the GTK part of SciTE - well, it is obviously
somewhat platform-specific, but past that, it is not configurable -
what if you want csh, bash, zsh, or whatever?
I am probably looking for something like "whenever you want to run a
console command, use this skeleton" and then allow optional property
string settings like
c:\winxp\system32\cmd.exe /c %COMMAND
e:\usr\bin\sh.exe -c %COMMAND
etc.
(or something like that) where %COMMAND is what you want to actually
do. And this *could* be shared between platforms, unless goes against
existing architectural assumptions.
Naturally, in the SciTE tradition, this would be overridable in the
Global, User, and local properties files way of doing things. :)
