;;; Commentary:

;;; Please send me bug reports, bug fixes, and extensions, so that I can
;;; merge them into the master source.
;;;     - Olin Shivers ([e-mail])

;;; This file defines a general command-interpreter-in-a-buffer package
;;; (comint mode). The idea is that you can build specific process-in-a-buffer
;;; modes on top of comint mode -- e.g., lisp, shell, scheme, T, soar, ....
;;; This way, all these specific packages share a common base functionality, 
;;; and a common set of bindings, which makes them easier to use (and
;;; saves code, implementation time, etc., etc.).

;;; Several packages are already defined using comint mode:
;;; - shell.el defines a shell-in-a-buffer mode.
;;; - cmulisp.el defines a simple lisp-in-a-buffer mode.
;;;
;;; - The file cmuscheme.el defines a scheme-in-a-buffer mode.
;;; - The file tea.el tunes scheme and inferior-scheme modes for T.
;;; - The file soar.el tunes lisp and inferior-lisp modes for Soar.
;;; - cmutex.el defines tex and latex modes that invoke tex, latex, bibtex,
;;;   previewers, and printers from within emacs.
;;; - background.el allows csh-like job control inside emacs.
;;; It is pretty easy to make new derived modes for other processes.

;;; For documentation on the functionality provided by comint mode, and
;;; the hooks available for customising it, see the comments below.
;;; For further information on the standard derived modes (shell, 
;;; inferior-lisp, inferior-scheme, ...), see the relevant source files.

;;; For hints on converting existing process modes (e.g., tex-mode,
;;; background, dbx, gdb, kermit, prolog, telnet) to use comint-mode
;;; instead of shell-mode, see the notes at the end of this file.

  "Major mode for interacting with an inferior interpreter.
Interpreter name is same as buffer name, sans the asterisks.
Return at end of buffer sends line as input.
Return not at end copies rest of line to end and sends it.
Setting variable `comint-eol-on-send' means jump to the end of the line
before submitting new input.

This mode is customised to create major modes such as Inferior Lisp
mode, Shell mode, etc.  This can be done by setting the hooks
`comint-input-sentinel', `comint-input-filter', `comint-input-sender'
and `comint-get-old-input' to appropriate functions, and the variable
`comint-prompt-regexp' to the appropriate regular expression.

An input history is maintained of size `comint-input-ring-size', and
can be accessed with the commands \\[comint-next-input], \\[comint-previous-input], and \\[comint-dynamic-list-input-ring].
Input ring history expansion can be achieved with the commands
\\[comint-replace-by-expanded-history] or \\[comint-magic-space].
Input ring expansion is controlled by the variable `comint-input-autoexpand',
and addition is controlled by the variable `comint-input-ignoredups'.

Commands with no default key bindings include `send-invisible',
`comint-dynamic-complete', `comint-list-dynamic-completions', and 
`comint-magic-space'.

Input to, and output from, the subprocess can cause the window to scroll to
the end of the buffer.  See variables `comint-output-filter-hook',
`comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input', and `comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-output'.

If you accidentally suspend your process, use \\[comint-continue-subjob]
to continue it.

  "Send input to process.
After the process output mark, sends all text from the process mark to
point as input to the process.  Before the process output mark, calls value
of variable `comint-get-old-input' to retrieve old input, copies it to the
process mark, and sends it.  If variable `comint-process-echoes' is nil,
a terminal newline is also inserted into the buffer and sent to the process
\(if it is non-nil, all text from the process mark to point is deleted,
since it is assumed the remote process will re-echo it).

Any history reference may be expanded depending on the value of the variable
`comint-input-autoexpand'.  The value of variable `comint-input-sentinel' is
called on the input before sending it.  The input is entered into the input
history ring, if the value of variable `comint-input-filter' returns non-nil
when called on the input.

If variable `comint-eol-on-send' is non-nil, then point is moved to the
end of line before sending the input.

`comint-get-old-input', `comint-input-sentinel', and `comint-input-filter'
are chosen according to the command interpreter running in the buffer.  E.g.,
If the interpreter is the csh,
    comint-get-old-input is the default: take the current line, discard any
        initial string matching regexp comint-prompt-regexp.
    comint-input-sentinel monitors input for \"cd\", \"pushd\", and \"popd\" 
        commands. When it sees one, it cd's the buffer.
    comint-input-filter is the default: returns t if the input isn't all white
	space.

If the comint is Lucid Common Lisp, 
    comint-get-old-input snarfs the sexp ending at point.
    comint-input-sentinel does nothing.
    comint-input-filter returns nil if the input matches input-filter-regexp,
        which matches (1) all whitespace (2) :a, :c, etc.

;;; Support for source-file processing commands.
;;;============================================================================
;;; Many command-interpreters (e.g., Lisp, Scheme, Soar) have
;;; commands that process files of source text (e.g. loading or compiling
;;; files). So the corresponding process-in-a-buffer modes have commands
;;; for doing this (e.g., lisp-load-file). The functions below are useful
;;; for defining these commands.
;;;
;;; Alas, these guys don't do exactly the right thing for Lisp, Scheme
;;; and Soar, in that they don't know anything about file extensions.
;;; So the compile/load interface gets the wrong default occasionally.
;;; The load-file/compile-file default mechanism could be smarter -- it
;;; doesn't know about the relationship between filename extensions and
;;; whether the file is source or executable. If you compile foo.lisp
;;; with compile-file, then the next load-file should use foo.bin for
;;; the default, not foo.lisp. This is tricky to do right, particularly
;;; because the extension for executable files varies so much (.o, .bin,
;;; .lbin, .mo, .vo, .ao, ...).


;;; COMINT-SOURCE-DEFAULT -- determines defaults for source-file processing
;;; commands.
;;;
;;; COMINT-CHECK-SOURCE -- if FNAME is in a modified buffer, asks you if you
;;; want to save the buffer before issuing any process requests to the command
;;; interpreter.
;;;
;;; COMINT-GET-SOURCE -- used by the source-file processing commands to prompt
;;; for the file to process.

;;; (COMINT-SOURCE-DEFAULT previous-dir/file source-modes)
;;;============================================================================
;;; This function computes the defaults for the load-file and compile-file
;;; commands for tea, soar, cmulisp, and cmuscheme modes. 
;;; 
;;; - PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE is a pair (directory . filename) from the last 
;;; source-file processing command. NIL if there hasn't been one yet.
;;; - SOURCE-MODES is a list used to determine what buffers contain source
;;; files: if the major mode of the buffer is in SOURCE-MODES, it's source.
;;; Typically, (lisp-mode) or (scheme-mode).
;;; 
;;; If the command is given while the cursor is inside a string, *and*
;;; the string is an existing filename, *and* the filename is not a directory,
;;; then the string is taken as default. This allows you to just position
;;; your cursor over a string that's a filename and have it taken as default.
;;;
;;; If the command is given in a file buffer whose major mode is in
;;; SOURCE-MODES, then the the filename is the default file, and the
;;; file's directory is the default directory.
;;; 
;;; If the buffer isn't a source file buffer (e.g., it's the process buffer),
;;; then the default directory & file are what was used in the last source-file
;;; processing command (i.e., PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE).  If this is the first time
;;; the command has been run (PREVIOUS-DIR/FILE is nil), the default directory
;;; is the cwd, with no default file. (\"no default file\" = nil)
;;; 
;;; SOURCE-REGEXP is typically going to be something like (tea-mode)
;;; for T programs, (lisp-mode) for Lisp programs, (soar-mode lisp-mode)
;;; for Soar programs, etc.
;;; 
;;; The function returns a pair: (default-directory . default-file).

;;; commands that process source files (like loading or compiling a file).
;;; It prompts for the filename, provides a default, if there is one,
;;; and returns the result filename.
;;; 
;;; See COMINT-SOURCE-DEFAULT for more on determining defaults.
;;; 
;;; PROMPT is the prompt string. PREV-DIR/FILE is the (directory . file) pair
;;; from the last source processing command.  SOURCE-MODES is a list of major
;;; modes used to determine what file buffers contain source files.  (These
;;; two arguments are used for determining defaults). If MUSTMATCH-P is true,
;;; then the filename reader will only accept a file that exists.
;;; 
;;; A typical use:
;;; (interactive (comint-get-source "Compile file: " prev-lisp-dir/file

;;; Converting process modes to use comint mode
;;; ===========================================================================
;;; The code in the Emacs 19 distribution has all been modified to use comint
;;; where needed.  However, there are `third-party' packages out there that
;;; still use the old shell mode.  Here's a guide to conversion.
;;;
;;; Renaming variables
;;; Most of the work is renaming variables and functions. These are the common
;;; ones:
;;; Local variables:
;;;	last-input-start	comint-last-input-start
;;; 	last-input-end		comint-last-input-end
;;;	shell-prompt-pattern	comint-prompt-regexp
;;;     shell-set-directory-error-hook <no equivalent>
;;; Miscellaneous:
;;;	shell-set-directory	<unnecessary>
;;; 	shell-mode-map		comint-mode-map
;;; Commands:
;;;	shell-send-input	comint-send-input
;;;	shell-send-eof		comint-delchar-or-maybe-eof
;;; 	kill-shell-input	comint-kill-input
;;;	interrupt-shell-subjob	comint-interrupt-subjob
;;;	stop-shell-subjob	comint-stop-subjob
;;;	quit-shell-subjob	comint-quit-subjob
;;;	kill-shell-subjob	comint-kill-subjob
;;;	kill-output-from-shell	comint-kill-output
;;;	show-output-from-shell	comint-show-output
;;;	copy-last-shell-input	Use comint-previous-input/comint-next-input
;;;
;;; SHELL-SET-DIRECTORY is gone, its functionality taken over by
;;; SHELL-DIRECTORY-TRACKER, the shell mode's comint-input-sentinel.
;;; Comint mode does not provide functionality equivalent to
;;; shell-set-directory-error-hook; it is gone.
;;;
;;; comint-last-input-start is provided for modes which want to munge
;;; the buffer after input is sent, perhaps because the inferior
;;; insists on echoing the input.  The LAST-INPUT-START variable in
;;; the old shell package was used to implement a history mechanism,
;;; but you should think twice before using comint-last-input-start
;;; for this; the input history ring often does the job better.
;;; 
;;; If you are implementing some process-in-a-buffer mode, called foo-mode, do
;;; *not* create the comint-mode local variables in your foo-mode function.
;;; This is not modular.  Instead, call comint-mode, and let *it* create the
;;; necessary comint-specific local variables. Then create the
;;; foo-mode-specific local variables in foo-mode.  Set the buffer's keymap to
;;; be foo-mode-map, and its mode to be foo-mode.  Set the comint-mode hooks
;;; (comint-prompt-regexp, comint-input-filter, comint-input-sentinel,
;;; comint-get-old-input) that need to be different from the defaults.  Call
;;; foo-mode-hook, and you're done. Don't run the comint-mode hook yourself;
;;; comint-mode will take care of it. The following example, from shell.el,
;;; is typical:
;;; 
;;; (defun shell-mode ()
;;;   (interactive)
;;;   (comint-mode)
;;;   (setq comint-prompt-regexp shell-prompt-pattern)
;;;   (setq major-mode 'shell-mode)
;;;   (setq mode-name "Shell")
;;;   (cond ((not shell-mode-map)
;;; 	     (setq shell-mode-map (full-copy-sparse-keymap comint-mode-map))
;;; 	     (define-key shell-mode-map "\M-\t" 'comint-dynamic-complete)
;;; 	     (define-key shell-mode-map "\M-?"
;;;                      'comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions)))
;;;   (use-local-map shell-mode-map)
;;;   (make-local-variable 'shell-directory-stack)
;;;   (setq shell-directory-stack nil)
;;;   (setq comint-input-sentinel 'shell-directory-tracker)
;;;   (run-hooks 'shell-mode-hook))
;;;
;;;
;;; Note that make-comint is different from make-shell in that it
;;; doesn't have a default program argument. If you give make-shell
;;; a program name of NIL, it cleverly chooses one of explicit-shell-name,
;;; $ESHELL, $SHELL, or /bin/sh. If you give make-comint a program argument
;;; of NIL, it barfs. Adjust your code accordingly...
;;;
;;; Completion for comint-mode users
;;; 
;;; For modes that use comint-mode, comint-after-partial-filename-command
;;; should be set to a function that returns t if the stub before point is to
;;; be treated as a filename.  By default, if the stub contains a `/', or does
;;; not follow the prompt, comint-dynamic-complete-filename-command is called.
;;; Otherwise, comint-dynamic-complete-command-command is called.  This should
;;; also be set to a function that completes whatever the mode calls commands.
;;; You could use comint-dynamic-simple-complete to do the bulk of the
;;; completion job.

;;; Do the user's customisation...
;;;
;;; Isn't this what eval-after-load is for?
;;;(defvar comint-load-hook nil
;;;  "This hook is run when comint is loaded in.
;;;This is a good place to put keybindings.")
;;;	
;;;(run-hooks 'comint-load-hook)

(provide 'comint)

;;; comint.el ends here
