MC bug (to Marco Atzeri)
Hi, I am a linux user but I have to use windows sometimes and I would love to use the midnight commander in my terminal, but there is a bug which doesn't really allow me to use it. I am using it on Windows 10 and when I change the directory in the mc, it only changes in the mc window, but when I press CTRL+O it stays in the same directory. And when I press CTRL+O it doesn't return to the previously opened directory. I will do a steps to reproduce list below. Also it is sometimes very slow when changing directories. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open mc by running the command mc 2. Go to another directory by selecting it and pressing enter 3. press CTRL+O 4. Do run ls Expected behaviour: I should be in the directory I have changed to in mc previously Actual behaviour: I am still in the home directory in which I was, when I started mc My mc version: GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.29 Built with GLib 2.54.3 Built with S-Lang 2.3.3 with terminfo database Built with libssh2 1.10.0 With builtin Editor With subshell support as default With support for background operations With mouse support on xterm With support for X11 events With internationalization support With multiple codepages support With ext2fs attributes support Virtual File Systems: cpiofs, tarfs, sfs, extfs, ext2undelfs, ftpfs, sftpfs, fish Data types: char: 8; int: 32; long: 64; void *: 64; size_t: 64; off_t: 64; Just for clarity, I am talking about this package https://www.cygwin.com/packages/summary/mc.html .

That's not related to what I've been talking about, which is the error message
"Cannot open named pipe /tmp/mc-corinna/mc.pipe.384" that Corinna reported.
The
failure you're talking about occurs in all shells and has already been fixed by
Takashi. I imagine Corinna will release 3.1.2 with the fix very soon.

there must be a race somewhere as running /usr/bin/mc.exe from strace
works fine.
But that's not the only problem running mc AFAICS. I'm seeing an
error message in the background:
Cannot open named pipe /tmp/mc-corinna/mc.pipe.384

It looks like there's another problem, this time with the new FIFO
code.
Ken, care to take a look?
I've just looked at the mc source code, and it seems that (under tcsh only), mc
creates a fifo and tries to open it twice as O_RDWR. This is not supported on
Cygwin, so the second attempt fails.
Here's the relevant code from src/subshell/common.c:
if (mc_global.shell->type == SHELL_TCSH)
{
g_snprintf (tcsh_fifo, sizeof (tcsh_fifo), "%s/mc.pipe.%d",
mc_tmpdir (), (int) getpid ());
if (mkfifo (tcsh_fifo, 0600) == -1)
[...]
/* Opening the FIFO as O_RDONLY or O_WRONLY causes deadlock */
if ((subshell_pipe[READ] = open (tcsh_fifo, O_RDWR)) == -1
|| (subshell_pipe[WRITE] = open (tcsh_fifo, O_RDWR)) == -1)
{
fprintf (stderr, _("Cannot open named pipe %s\n"), tcsh_fifo);
perror (__FILE__ ": open");
mc_global.tty.use_subshell = FALSE;
[...]
Under bash, zsh, and some other shells, mc uses ordinary pipes rather than
FIFOs. I have no idea why tcsh is treated differently.
Until someone[*] gets around to making it possible to open a FIFO twice for
reading, I don't think there's anything we can do about it. I also don't know
how important this is for mc. I don't use tcsh or mc, so I can't judge.
I've reproduced mc to fail, from bash, in cygwin 3.1.0 and 3.1.1,
Windows 1809 and 1903.

I've just looked at the mc source code, and it seems that (under tcsh only), mc
creates a fifo and tries to open it twice as O_RDWR. This is not supported on
Cygwin, so the second attempt fails.
Here's the relevant code from src/subshell/common.c:
if (mc_global.shell->type == SHELL_TCSH)
{
g_snprintf (tcsh_fifo, sizeof (tcsh_fifo), "%s/mc.pipe.%d",
mc_tmpdir (), (int) getpid ());
if (mkfifo (tcsh_fifo, 0600) == -1)
[...]
/* Opening the FIFO as O_RDONLY or O_WRONLY causes deadlock */
if ((subshell_pipe[READ] = open (tcsh_fifo, O_RDWR)) == -1
|| (subshell_pipe[WRITE] = open (tcsh_fifo, O_RDWR)) == -1)
{
fprintf (stderr, _("Cannot open named pipe %s\n"), tcsh_fifo);
perror (__FILE__ ": open");
mc_global.tty.use_subshell = FALSE;
[...]
Under bash, zsh, and some other shells, mc uses ordinary pipes rather than
FIFOs. I have no idea why tcsh is treated differently.
Until someone[*] gets around to making it possible to open a FIFO twice for
reading, I don't think there's anything we can do about it. I also don't know
how important this is for mc. I don't use tcsh or mc, so I can't judge.
Ken
[*] I will probably look into this at some point if there's enough demand for
it, but I'd like the new FIFO code to get lots of testing first.

I'm seeing an error message in the background: Cannot open named pipe /tmp/mc-corinna/mc.pipe.384 /cygdrive/d/cyg_pub/devel/mc/mc-4.8.23-1.x86_64/src/mc-4.8.23/src/subshell/common.c: open: Permission denied It looks like there's another problem, this time with the new FIFO code.

Re: problem with displaying graphical chars in mc under rxvt (CYGWIN=codepage:oem didnt fix it)
My winning setings for these problems are finally here after several tries. MC has now correct line drawing borders, backspace and arrows work in bash shell, also mc works much faster in rxvt than in default cygwin shell (which seems to run in windows cmd?). The TERM and DISPLAY environment variables fiex several issues too. My cygwin startup script in C:\cygwin\Cygwin.bat : @echo off C: chdir C:\cygwin\bin set TERM=rxvt-cygwin set DISPLAY=:0 C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -fn Terminal-18 -tn rxvt-cygwin -geometry 120x50 -sr -sl 1000 -e /bin/bash --login -i Note that font size 10 is also readable but much smaller. Other sizes have really ridiculous proportions.

However, when I run this version of mc it leaves a stray bash process sitting around both with 1.7.9 and 1.7.10. This is a long standing bug, the old version in the distro has the same issue. It ships with subshell support switched off by default (i.e. --with-subshell=optional), so you see this only if you run `mc -U'. szgyg

You could also try another approach: rebuilding from the distributed sources,
and modifying mc-4.6.1-2.sh to enable subshell:

I don't understand why MC was not already built with subshell support

C-o in GNU MC and mintty/rxvt issue?
Recently I decide switch from Far/Total Commander to GNU MC.
I use Cygwin 1.7.1.
MC is look beauty with mintty but I have issue:
1. when press C-o to see ls output, it have irregular structure,
not indented by column, like column width set to infinity:
{{{
Application DataPrintHood
Bluetooth Software PrivacIE
Cookies Recent

Local Settings WINDOWS
NetHood Главное меню
NTUSER.DAT Избранное

ntuser.ini Рабочий стол
ntuser.ini.sum Шаблоны
$ ls
}}}
2. command output printed before command itself:
{{{
xxx xterm xxx
$ echo xxx $TERM xxx
}}}
3. Second shell not available.
On Debian I get prompt after pressing C-o, with Cygwin MC pressing
any key back me to MC screen.

3. Second shell not available.
On Debian I get prompt after pressing C-o, with Cygwin MC pressing
any key back me to MC screen.
I partially resolve all problem.
It seems by default Cygwin MC do not use subshell.
I run mc --subshell and all symptom goes out!
I dislike many typing and sadly mc is not support
any analog of '--subshell' in ~/.mc/ini.
So I create scripts:
mymc.bat for Windows and Win+R {{{
@echo off
REM I probably on Windows with Russian language.
set LANG=ru_RU.cp1251
start mintty --size=140,50 -e mc --subshell
REM start rxvt -fn 8x16 -fb 8x16 -geometry 140x50 -e mc -a
}}}
mymc for bash under Windows and for Linux {{{
#!/bin/sh
if [ $OSTYPE = cygwin ]; then
mintty --size=140,50 -e mc --subshell
else
xterm -fn 8x16 -fb 8x16 -geometry 140x50 -e mc -a
fi
}}}

Hello,
You could also try another approach: rebuilding from the distributed sources,
and modifying mc-4.6.1-2.sh to enable subshell:
$ diff -u mc-4.6.1-2.sh.orig mc-4.6.1-2.sh
--- mc-4.6.1-2.sh.orig 2010-05-12 21:14:32.879507800 +0200
+++ mc-4.6.1-2.sh 2010-05-12 21:15:30.443951800 +0200
