When receiving a bunch of output from the app, tmux will sometimes inexplicably pause in the midst of it, and won't continue until receiving input from the keyboard (client). Specifically, on receiving <Enter>.
I can only reproduce this when the app is outputting a line at a time; if I do a "while read line; do echo $line; done < SOME-FILE", I can produce it (sporadically), but I have failed to reproduce with "cat SOME-FILE". This only happens when the window has a single pane; I couldn't reproduce with a split (with or without -h). Sometimes in this "pause" there are a couple blank lines at the bottom of the pane; sometimes I already see the prompt from after the output at the bottom, but the output has been truncated. Then I hit <return> and see the full output displayed (the text between the two prompts "magically" expands). Whether or not I see the prompt, if I type text besides <Enter>, the cursor is located where it would be if I was at the prompt; backspacing over my writing works, but only up to where it would be after the prompt. Also (I just checked) my bash bindings work; I can hit my vi-mode <Esc> and scroll up through my commands with "k", so I'm at the prompt. This indicates a redrawing issue, rather than an I/O block; C-a r also resolves the glitch. The following output pauses ~50-70% of the time, using the "while read line..." method (it originally came from the output of a quilt-like command I ran from the Mercurial "hg" command; "hg qpush"). ------------------------- applying home-akamai.diff patching file .Xresources patching file .p4editorrc patching file .pjobsrc patching file .profile.d/02init patching file .profile.d/akamai patching file .profile.d/path-setup patching file .tmux.conf Hunk #1 succeeded at 36 with fuzz 2 (offset 0 lines). patching file bin/p4editor patching file bin/vbe-setup adding .p4editorrc adding .profile.d/akamai adding bin/p4editor adding bin/vbe-setup .Xresources .p4editorrc .pjobsrc .profile.d/02init .profile.d/akamai .profile.d/path-setup .tmux.conf bin/p4editor bin/vbe-setup now at: home-akamai.diff ------------------------ I can also get results via the "yes" command, but at a lower frequency (I also tried yessing longer lines, and piping it through the "while"). -mjc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ tmux-users mailing list tmux-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/tmux-users
