[Fish-users] Fwd: delays in showing prompt

I got it with the normal version so currently I'm using Ben Hoskins OS X version (http://github.com/benhoskings/fish), but I also happens for me with that (on OS X 10.6.3). No idea why it happens. That's odd. Can you double check the version you're using is built from my fork? I'm pretty confident it fixes the problem. Try this: echo test ^/dev/null If that prints test ^/dev/null, you're running my fork. If it prints test, you're not. —Ben -- ___ Fish-users mailing list Fish-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fish-users

Re: [Fish-users] Fixing title setting in OS X
2010/4/3 David Frascone d...@frascone.com I need to check out a linux tree from darcs and apply these changes to make sure I'm not breaking anything . . . My git repo (and yours if you cloned from mine) contains the full history, so to get the current state of the darcs repo (i.e. Axel's latest code), you can just do something like git commit -a -m 'Temp' # if you have uncommitted changes git checkout -b axel git reset --hard 1eb089d # That's axel's latest commit, from early '09 —Ben -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

Re: [Fish-users] Setting PATH?
2010/3/31 David Frascone d...@frascone.com And, my path is set completely differently. Ok -- so -- that could just be some weird login -vs- interactive shell setting. I get that. But, here's the really strange part. In my home directory's config.fish, I have this snippet: if [ -d ~/bin ] echo PATH before: $PATH set -g PATH $PATH ~/bin echo PATH after: $PATH end So, if my ~/bin exists, it will be appended to the path. For the login shell, this works. For all other shells, the code executes, but the path does NOT change -- WTF?!?!?! Setting the PATH fails if any of the component dirs don't exist. And it fails with a broken error message - 'value too large to be stored in data type'. —ben_h -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

[Fish-users] Patch: fixing command delays on OS X
Hi all, I sent this to Axel a little while ago but realised this list is probably a better destination for it. -- Hi Axel, Firstly, fish rocks :) I started using fish a few months ago when a friend at a RailsCamp showed it to me, and since then I've got a few mates using it. We've all had an issue where sometimes a command stalls for a few seconds before the prompt returns. There's no CPU or disc activity, just a delay. It's sometimes an explicitly run command, and sometimes just happens when hitting enter—i.e. one of the commands that run within fish_prompt(). I did some investigating, turning on debugging output, and I found that the select() call in select_try() was taking 5 seconds to return. When it returns, the loop in job_continue() from which select_try() is called immediately re-calls it, and it generally returns immediately the second time. I don't really understand how select() works, but it seems that if the subcommand doesn't have output (or EOF) available at the point that select is called, then it will never return before the 5sec timeout. My patch:http://github.com/benhoskings/fish/commit/b064d8c6916b54688103d0d8df63a3aed0aca75e (http://github.com/benhoskings/fish is a direct import of your darcs repo using darcs-to-git.) I changed the timeout to 10 milliseconds, and it solved the problem completely. select_try() polls repeatedly until the command finishes or has output ready, and the prompt delay has disappeared for all of us. The 10msec delay is still long enough that fish doesn't use any CPU during the loop. I'm interested to see what you think of this patch, because although it's completely fixed the problem for us, there might be a more correct way to solve it.

[Fish-users] Setting PATH fails for non-existent directories
Hi folks, Just found what looks like a bug: set PATH '/usr/local/bin' '/usr/bin' '/bin' '/usr/sbin' '/sbin' '/ usr/X11R6/bin' set: Could not add component /usr/local/bin to PATH. set: Value too large to be stored in data type sudo mkdir /usr/local/bin Password: set PATH '/usr/local/bin' '/usr/bin' '/bin' '/usr/sbin' '/sbin' '/usr/ X11R6/bin' When a component in the array doesn't exist, the entire command fails, which caused the value of PATH to be completely different to what I was setting it to in ~/.config/fish/config.fish.
