This file contains elisp code that makes it +;;;; easy for a user to deal with this problem, when using such a +;;;; terminal. +;;;; +;;;; To invoke these adjustments, a user need only invoke the function +;;;; evade-flow-control-on with a list of terminal types in his/her own +;;;; .emacs file. As arguments, give it the names of one or more terminal +;;;; types in use by that user which require flow control adjustments. +;;;; Here's an example: +;;;; +;;;; (evade-flow-control-on "vt200" "vt300" "vt101" "vt131") + +;;; Portability note: This uses (getenv "TERM"), and therefore probably +;;; won't work outside of UNIX-like environments. + +(defun evade-flow-control () + "Replace C-s with C-\ and C-q with C-^ and tell emacs to pass C-s +and C-q characters to OS." + (interactive) + ;; Tell emacs to pass C-s and C-q to OS. + (set-input-mode nil t) + ;; Initialize translate table, saving previous mappings, if any. + (let ((the-table (make-string 128 0))) + (let ((i 0) + (j (length keyboard-translate-table))) + (while (< i j) + (aset the-table i (elt keyboard-translate-table i)) + (setq i (1+ i))) + (while (< i 128) + (aset the-table i i) + (setq i (1+ i)))) + (setq keyboard-translate-table the-table)) + ;; Swap C-s and C-\ + (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\034 ?\^s) + (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\^s ?\034) + ;; Swap C-q and C-^ + (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\036 ?\^q) + (aset keyboard-translate-table ?\^q ?\036) + (message (concat + "XON/XOFF adjustment for " + (getenv "TERM") + ": use C-\\ for C-s and use C-^ for C-q.")) + (sleep-for 2)) ; Give user a chance to see message. + +(defun memstr= (e s) + (cond ((null s) nil) + ((string= e (car s)) t) + (t (memstr= e (cdr s))))) + +;;;###autoload +(defun evade-flow-control-on (&rest losing-terminal-types) + (let ((term (getenv "TERM")) + hyphend) + ;; Strip off hyphen and what follows + (while (setq hyphend (string-match "[-_][^-_]+$" term)) + (setq term (substring term 0 hyphend))) + (and (memstr= term losing-terminal-types) (evade-flow-control))) + ) + +(provide 'flow-ctrl) + +;;; flow-ctrl.el ends here +
