Summary: Share the input line between buffers Project: Wee Enhanced Environment for Chat Submitted by: nnssj Submitted on: dim 29 mar 2009 00:50:44 CET Category: None Severity: 3 - Normal Item Group: None Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: None IRC nick: _______________________________________________________ Details: It would be quite nice indeed if we were able to activate the sharing of the current input line between buffers. If this comes at the cost of losing local history, so be it, but it would be awesome if both were possible. Thanks for considering it. _______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comments: ------------------------------------------------------- Date: sam 19 nov 2005 17:33:32 CET By: Peter Maydell <pm215> I've committed a patch to the manpage to say that lower case envariables aren't supposed to be set by the user, so this bug is fixed. (Change should make it into 1.2.) ------------------------------------------------------- Date: lun 14 nov 2005 14:14:23 CET By: Peter Maydell <pm215> >The man page mh_profile(5) says, that one can set the default >editor used by whatnow by setting a $mheditor environment >variable. Actually, it doesn't (if you interpret it right). I think the idea is that environment variables in uppercase are user-settable, and lowercase ones are set only to communicate information from one part of nmh to another. The explanatory text generally says 'this is set' rather than 'you can specify'. It's clear from the code that whatnow does check the envariable; I assume the original reporter found setting it had no effect because it was overridden by whatever other bit of nmh was invoking whatnow. My suggestion is that we should add something to the mh-profile manpage, explaining this convention and that lowercase envariables aren't user-settable. We could probably also put something more of a separator between them and the user-settable envariables. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?9228> _______________________________________________ Message posté via/par Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Weechat-dev mailing list Weechat-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/weechat-dev
