Bug#445441: clusterssh: Doesnt work with slightly different xterm settings

2007-10-05 Thread Joerg Jaspert
Package: clusterssh
Version: 3.19.1-8
Severity: normal

While clusterssh has a .csshrc where you can set terminal_args= in it -
it breaks if you actually do that. Like - try adding -class SOMETHING to
give your xterms another class (so loading other default options), you
end up with all the terminal windows as expected - but are unable to do
anything with them. You can type directly into one of the windows, but
the cssh control window isnt able to deal with any of them.

Bug#445441: clusterssh: Doesnt work with slightly different xterm settings

If you are going to set the class to something other than the default, try
updating terminal_allow_send_events in your .csshrc to be:

-xrm '$class.VT100.allowSendEvents:true

or just:

-xrm '*.VT100.allowSendEvents:true

(Which is the default starting with 3.19.1-8, but the value -xrm
'XTerm.VT100.allowSendEvents:true' may have already be in your .csshrc.)

clusterssh depends on allowSendEvents to be set in order to send events to
the terminal windows.

In general, options should work with terminal_args.  -class is a little
special.  If you think it occurs commonly, I could suggest a patch to
upstream that picks up the class value and automatically places in the -xrm
string.

Cheers,
Tony

Doesnt work.

Works.

Yes, and I completly missed that.

 special.  If you think it occurs commonly, I could suggest a patch to

 string.

Well. Commonly, i dont know. I just want to load different settings for
cssh terminal windows than i want for all my usual terminal windows, so
I have a few entries in .Xdefaults that I load with xrdb. There one
needs such things.

It sure would be nice if cssh does understand that by default, but if
you have *. in -xrm anyway, then it should be enough.


Your call, as its your time. Feel free to take this bug as a tracking
point for the patch or close it if you dont want to do the work, the
workaround with the -xrm is fine for me.

liw we have release cycles, that's why it takes so long to get a
release out; if we had release race cars, things would go a lot faster
