I want to continue working without an extra empty line between the last output and the input prompt, as I did with earlier ipythons using the --nosep option.
I now use IPython version 5.1.0. It helpfully informs me that:
[TerminalIPythonApp] WARNING | Config option nosep not recognized by TerminalIPythonApp.
/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/IPython/core/interactiveshell.py:448: UserWarning: As of IPython 5.0 PromptManager config will have no effect and has been replaced by TerminalInteractiveShell.prompts_class
And the documentation explains how to define a prompts_class. But how do I get the functionality equivalent to the --nosep option? I can overwrite the in and out prompts (a-la this answer, with the in_prompt_tokens and out_prompt_tokens methods), but the extra empty line remains.

I am experiencing a rather puzzling error while trying to perform a diff on two files using Visual Studio Code from the command line. I have a text file in the cloud where I save some work related notes. I need to resolve conflicts with other clients editing the file. Usually this only happens during a loss of connection though somehow I find myself having to resolve a lot of them so between this and other uses of diff I will use the usual syntax. It looks something like this:
code --diff "R&D (cloud conflict 2-5-23).txt" "R&D.txt"
My filename happens to have a '&' in it and this command launches the usual 2-way diff in VS Code and reads through the first file name with no problem but doesn't read past the second '&' and the resulting diff tab in VS Code looks something like:
R&D (cloud conflict 2-25-23).txt <-> R
Where the right side "R" doesn't exist. So it would seem '&' needs to be processed literally.
No problem, let's see if backslash \ is an accepted escape parameter...
code --diff "R\&D (cloud conflict 2-5-23).txt" "R\&D.txt"
Nope. Same problem. 🤔 In fact this outputs something even stranger:
Code diff tab:
&D (cloud conflict 2-25-23).txt <-> R
with shell output:
'D.txt' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I also tried the carrot symbol '^' as an escape parameter to a similar effect. I just includes it in the first file and the editor still thinks the second file name is just "R".
The help file for the VS Code command line integration didn't have a lot to say about the --diff parameter other than a short description and I was hoping to get something about processing strings literally or escape characters. Perhaps another parameter that I need or maybe this has more to do with the shell in general.
I find it really strange that it can read the first full file name but breaks at the second '&'. Weirder still that if a supposed escape character is included in the second file name, it will omit that as well. 😵
For now all I can do is rename the file which is a bummer. 🤷♂️ I have VS Code version 1.75.0 on Windows 10 Home latest version/build and I'm using PowerShell version 5.1.19041.2364.
Edit: The issue definitely appears to be PowerShell related as it turns out. I was finally able to run this command successfully in a regular command prompt. (Simply typing "cmd" and Enter into the PowerShell window before running the diff command). Unfortunately, I happen to be running this command as part of PowerShell script. I may have to figure out how to run a CMD command from inside my PowerShell script if that is at all possible. I'm not sure. 🤔 If not, I need to figure out what exactly PowerShell is doing to my command when it reaches the '&' character.
tl;dr
You need a workaround:
cmd /c 'code --diff "R&D (cloud conflict 2-5-23).txt" "R&D.txt"'
Alternatively, using --%, the stop-parsing token:
code --diff "R&D (cloud conflict 2-5-23).txt" --% "R&D.txt"
Note: --% comes with fundamental limitations, notably the inability to reference PowerShell variables - see this answer.
Background information:
The root cause is that code is implemented as a batch file (code.cmd) and that cmd.exe, the interpreter that executes batch file inappropriately parses its list of arguments as if they had been submitted from INSIDE a cmd.exe session.
PowerShell, which - of necessity - has to rebuild the process command line behind the scenes on Windows after having performed argument parsing based on its rules, and - justifiably - places "R&D.txt" as verbatim R&D.txt on the process command line, given that the argument value contains no spaces.
The result is that cmd.exe interprets the unquoted R&D.txt argument on its command line as containing metacharacter &, which is its command-sequencing operator, causing the call to break.
Given that cmd.exe, the legacy Windows shell, is unlikely to receive fixes, the actively maintained PowerShell (Core) 7+ edition could as a courtesy compensate for cmd.exe's inappropriate behavior.
Doing so has been proposed in GitHub issue #15143, but, alas, it looks like these accommodations will not be implemented.
yesterday I had SumatraPDF and VisualStudioCode with latex-workshop working with forward and reverse-search. Today the reverse-search didn't work any more. With a simple bat file I tried to show the commandline arguments.
echo %*
pause
They seemed correct and when I copied the command and paste it into a new cmd it works. To do further testing I tried to direct command and run it.
"C:\....\Code.exe" -g "%1:%2"
pause
Visual Studio Code responds: bad option -g
In SumatraPDF I set cmd as command.
Now the behavior is that I have two cmd windows. With the cmd directly opened the VSC open's the file. With the cmd launched indirect I got the error message.
I have tried resetting the environment variables, changing the current working directory, and checking the code page currently in use.
How can it be that cmd behaves differently with seemingly the same environment? And what can I do to make a cmd started from an application work like a cmd started by windows?
Update: It appears there were a couple of recent security changes in the way VSCODE.exe is allowed to interact with the command line (especially affecting LaTeX-workshop users) so for recent changes twice this year see the discussion at https://forum.sumatrapdfreader.org/t/inverse-search-not-performed-for-vs-code-exe/4486/27
Within SumatraPDF the reverse syntex command for %1 is replaced by %f for file and (l)L for line
It is triggered by a double click near the line of interest and if the synctex index file was compiled correctly by PdfLaTeX (or similar) it will include the tex %f(ilename) and the nearest %l(ine) reference to the point where double clicked.
Thus your tex syctex enhanced "reverse search" call out of SumatraPDF should historically be
"C:\...path to...\Code.exe" -g "%f:%l"
that's Lower L not 1
Avoid using any depreciated -inverse-search parameter from a LaTeX editor just add it once into SumatraPDF-settings.txt and then it's not disturbed by repeated assignments when running your -forward-search.
It will NOT work if the file.synctex or file.synctex.gz is corrupt by a bad PDF compilation.
HOWEVER It seem Microsoft have added the requirement to add a CLI.js handler and requires another switch setting after that ! (see link to discussion in Update above)
For a small test file download https://github.com/GitHubRulesOK/MyNotes/raw/master/AppNotes/SumatraPDF/LATeX%20and%20Reverse-Search.zip unpack and open sync.pdf in SumatraPDF to test that double click on page opens sync.tex in the editor
If the message is cannot start ... then the command line is not configured correctly. A rough test for a bad synctex is to see what happens if the call is changed by adding cmd /k echo to the start, since that will confirm the reverse command. Here I wrote "wrong" as the path to code.exe, once corrected I can remove cmd /k echo.
For some other systems where the reverse might change
see https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues/1197#
However there should be no interference in a valid VsCode call.
I recently updated iTerm2 to version 3.2.4 and then to 3.2.5 and I get (standard_in) 1: parse error every time I start a new fish session. (on both versions - nothing on the previous ones).
I use fortune -a -s as greeting, and don't think that is the cause of the error.
My version of fish is 2.7.1
Renaming config.fish file, "solved" the error! I believe the real problem is in init.fish.
My config.fish file :
set -gx OMF_PATH /Users/<my-user>/.local/share/omf
set -gx OMF_CONFIG /Users/<my-user>/.config/omf
source $OMF_PATH/init.fish
set -g fish_prompt_pwd_dir_length 5
My init.fish file was never altered, so the file is still equal to the original one: init.fish
I had a similar issue although it didn't affect me from starting a fish shell. However, I believe the similar outcome was related. When I added quotes in certain spots, and used brackets to separate a variable to be expanded before appending the rest of a string to it that seemed to work. In your case try editing config.fish like so:
set -gx OMF_PATH "/Users/anonirato/.local/share/omf"
set -gx OMF_CONFIG "/Users/anonirato/.config/omf"
source "{$OMF_PATH}/init.fish"
set -g fish_prompt_pwd_dir_length 5
Let me know if that does anything for ya. If not, then I will dig deeper and edit my answer.
I am attempting to use the SVN_Load_Dirs.PL script file (https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/contrib/client-side/svn_load_dirs/) to attempt to merge a platform drop.
However, I can't get the --glob_ignores flag to behave as I'd expect, and I know so little perl that I can't dig into the script to understand why. The format I am using is:
--glob_ignores=*.jazzignore
Where I want to ignore all .jazzignore files (although I am fine with anything with "jazzignore" in either the extension or name being ignored. I've looked for examples but can't find any actual usage of this flag anywhere. What I am looking for is a way to ignore all .jazzignore files and a few entire directories (like jazz5 for an example)
I assumed the flag would then be --glob_ignores="*.jazzignore *.jazz5" but that doesn't appear to be working.
It turns out that the script was failing silently because I was running it from a windows cmd (and therefore never getting to the flag option). Apparently there are some issues running it this way and it was designed to be run from a linux command line. After switching it works perfectly.
Is it possible to integrate Cppcheck with Emacs in a more sophisticated way than simply calling the shell command on the current buffer? I would like Emacs to be able to parse Cppcheck's messages and treat them as messages from a compiler (similar to how compile works), such as using C-x ` to visit the targets of Cppcheck's messages.
Here is some example output Cppcheck:
$ cppcheck --enable=all test.cpp
Checking test.cpp...
[test.cpp:4]: (error) Possible null pointer dereference: p - otherwise it is redundant to check if p is null at line 5
[test.cpp:38]: (style) The scope of the variable 'i' can be reduced
[test.cpp:38]: (style) Variable 'i' is assigned a value that is never used
[test.cpp:23]: (error) Possible null pointer dereference: p
[test.cpp:33]: (error) Possible null pointer dereference: p
Checking usage of global functions..
[test.cpp:36]: (style) The function 'f' is never used
[test.cpp:1]: (style) The function 'f1' is never used
[test.cpp:9]: (style) The function 'f2' is never used
[test.cpp:26]: (style) The function 'f3' is never used
Hmmm... I think this is really simple actually. Just use 'compile', as in M-x compile, and type as the compile command:
cppcheck --template='{file}:{line}:{severity}:{message}' --quiet <filename>
Where the filename is the name of the file on which you wish to run cppcheck. That puts the output of cppcheck into a form that the compilation buffer can parse and gives you the full functionality you get with, for instance, a g++ compile.
The --quiet is probably not necessary but since all I care about are the errors that's what I use.
You can use flymake which ships with Emacs.
The basic idea is to write a flymake command that runs cppcheck and then massages the output into a format the flymake can use. If you then enable flymake in your c++ mode buffers, you'll get on the fly error highlighting.
This is an example of flymake working with my Python buffers using pyflakes.
flymake in general expects output in this form
filename:line_number: class: message
Where filename is the name of the file, number is the line number, class is a string like error or warning indicating the type of message and message is a string indicating the actual error. cppcheck output looks close to this. You should probably write a little wrapper to convert the output of cppcheck to this format and then add a hook to turn on flymake for c++ mode.
With C, adding something like gcc -Wall -o nul -S ${CHK_SOURCES} to your Makefile with under a target check-syntax and running flymake-mode does what's necessary. I think it'll be similar for c++ mode.
For the gory details, you should check out http://flymake.sourceforge.net/
Is it possible to integrate Cppcheck with Emacs in a more sophisticated way
Yes, it is possible. Use flymake. I'm surprised no one has done this yet for cppcheck.
No problem, you can do it yourself. Add cppcheck as a new flavor of flymake tool. To do that, follow an existing example. It's not too complicated to do, but coming in cold, it's hard to know what to do. (I've never seen a guide document that describes how to integrate new tools into flymake). Following an existing working example solves that.
Here's a 7k file that adds PHP CodeSniffer as a flymake tool. http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/flyphpcs.el
Most of that 7k is comments...
You should be able to modify that to add any arbitrary tool to flymake. The key steps are:
Associate your target file extension (example: .cpp) with a pair of functions (init and cleanup) that do your flymake stuff.
define a function to generate the command line, each time flymake scans your buffer. Ths fn gets the name of the file backing the buffer, and produces a command line. In your case it would run cppcheck with all the appropriate command line parameters. The fn that generates the command line is called by the init fn referenced in #1.
define a regex that matches error messages generated by your tool, and add that regex to the flymake list. This allows flymake to extract error messages from the output of the tool you run. By parsing the output, flymake can get the line numbers and highlight broken lines in your buffer.
based on the answers, flymake sounds good.
you can write a cppcheck parser but it sounds easier to use cppcheck --template option.
cppcheck --template="{file}:{line}:{severity}:{message}" foo.cpp
might match flymake pattern. It is just an idea.
The quickest way is probably to use flymake and add an extra target to your makefile.
This setup is working for me:
check-syntax: cppcheck
g++ -o nul -S ${CHK_SOURCES} $(CFLAGS)
cppcheck:
cppcheck --enable=all --quiet --template={file}:{line}:{severity}:{message} ${CHK_SOURCES}
