695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	55 This feature is for running a terminal emulator in a Vim window. A job can be
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	56 started connected to the terminal emulator. For example, to run a shell: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	57 :term bash
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	58
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	59 Or to run build command: >

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	62 The job runs asynchronously from Vim, the window will be updated to show
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	63 output from the job, also while editing in another window.

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	68 When the keyboard focus is in the terminal window, typed keys will be sent to
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	69 the job. This uses a pty when possible. You can click outside of the
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	70 terminal window to move keyboard focus elsewhere.

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	73 CTRL-W can be used to navigate between windows and other CTRL-W commands, e.g.:
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	74 CTRL-W CTRL-W move focus to the next window
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	75 CTRL-W : enter an Ex command

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	85 evaluating an expression.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	86 CTRL-W CTRL-C ends the job, see below \|t_CTRL-W_CTRL-C\|

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	90 See option 'termwinkey' for specifying another key instead of CTRL-W that
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	91 will work like CTRL-W. However, typing 'termwinkey' twice sends 'termwinkey'
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	92 to the job. For example:
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	93 'termwinkey' CTRL-W move focus to the next window
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	94 'termwinkey' : enter an Ex command
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	95 'termwinkey' 'termwinkey' send 'termwinkey' to the job in the terminal
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	96 'termwinkey' . send 'termwinkey' to the job in the terminal
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	97 'termwinkey' CTRL-\ send a CTRL-\ to the job in the terminal
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	98 'termwinkey' N go to terminal Normal mode, see below
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	99 'termwinkey' CTRL-N same as CTRL-W N \|t_CTRL-W_N\|
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	100 'termwinkey' CTRL-C same as CTRL-W CTRL-C \|t_CTRL-W_CTRL-C\|
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	101 t_CTRL-\_CTRL-N
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	102 The special key combination CTRL-\ CTRL-N can be used to switch to Normal
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	103 mode, just like this works in any other mode.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	104 t_CTRL-W_CTRL-C
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	105 CTRL-W CTRL-C can be typed to forcefully end the job. On MS-Windows a
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	106 CTRL-Break will also kill the job.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	107
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	108 If you type CTRL-C the effect depends on what the pty has been configured to
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	109 do. For simple commands this causes a SIGINT to be sent to the job, which
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	110 would end it. Other commands may ignore the SIGINT or handle the CTRL-C
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	111 themselves (like Vim does).
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	112
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	113 To change the keys you type use terminal mode mappings, see \|:tmap\|.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	114 These are defined like any mapping, but apply only when typing keys that are
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	115 sent to the job running in the terminal. For example, to make F1 switch
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	116 to Terminal-Normal mode: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	117 tnoremap <F1> <C-W>N
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	118 You can use Esc, but you need to make sure it won't cause other keys to
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	119 break (cursor keys start with an Esc, so they may break), this probably only
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	120 works in the GUI: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	121 tnoremap <Esc> <C-W>N
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	122 set notimeout ttimeout timeoutlen=100
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	123
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	124 You can also create menus similar to terminal mode mappings, but you have to
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	125 use \|:tlmenu\| instead of \|:tmenu\|.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	126

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	128 After opening the terminal window and setting 'buftype' to "terminal" the
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	129 \|TerminalWinOpen\| autocommand event is triggered. This makes it possible to set
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	130 options specifically for the terminal window and buffer. Example: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	131 au TerminalWinOpen * setlocal bufhidden=hide
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	132 This only works properly if the terminal is not hidden.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	133
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	134 For both hidden and non-hidden terminals this works, both for buffer-local and

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	289 way to kill or interrupt the job. For example: >

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	990 There are several ways to communicate with the job running in a terminal:
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	991 - Use \|term_sendkeys()\| to send text and escape sequences from Vim to the job.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	992 - Use the JSON API to send encoded commands from the job to Vim.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	993 - Use the \|client-server\| mechanism. This works on machines with an X server
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	994 and on MS-Windows.

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	999 This allows for remote controlling the job running in the terminal. It is a
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1000 one-way mechanism. The job can update the display to signal back to Vim.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1001 For example, if a shell is running in a terminal, you can do: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1002 call term_sendkeys(buf, "ls *.java\<CR>")

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1004 This requires for the job to be in the right state where it will do the right
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1005 thing when receiving the keys. For the above example, the shell must be

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1008 For a job that was written for the purpose, you can use the JSON API escape
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1009 sequence in the other direction. E.g.: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1010 call term_sendkeys(buf, "\<Esc>]51;["response"]\x07")

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1015 The job can send JSON to Vim, using a special escape sequence. The JSON
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1016 encodes a command that Vim understands. Example of such a message: >

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1030 By default, the function name must start with "Tapi_" to avoid
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1031 accidentally calling a function not meant to be used for the

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1033 The user function should sanity check the argument.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1034 The function can use \|term_sendkeys()\| to send back a reply.

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1144 In some cases it can be bothersome to test that Vim displays the right
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1145 characters on the screen. E.g. with syntax highlighting. To make this
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1146 simpler it is possible to take a screen dump of a terminal and compare it to

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1149 Vim uses the window size, text, color and other attributes as displayed. The
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1150 Vim screen size, font and other properties do not matter. Therefore this

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1157 For an example see the Test_syntax_c() function in
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1158 src/testdir/test_syntax.vim. The main parts are:
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1159 - Write a file you want to test with. This is useful for testing syntax
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1160 highlighting. You can also start Vim with an empty buffer.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1161 - Run Vim in a terminal with a specific size. The default is 20 lines of 75
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1162 characters. This makes sure the dump is always this size. The function
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1163 RunVimInTerminal() takes care of this. Pass it the arguments for the Vim
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1164 command.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1165 - Send any commands to Vim using \|term_sendkeys()\|. For example: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1166 call term_sendkeys(buf, ":echo &lines &columns\<CR>")
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1167 - Check that the screen is now in the expected state, using
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1168 VerifyScreenDump(). This expects the reference screen dump to be in the
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1169 src/testdir/dumps/ directory. Pass the name without ".dump". It is
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1170 recommended to use the name of the test function and a sequence number, so
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1171 that we know what test is using the file.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1172 - Repeat sending commands and checking the state.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1173 - Finally stop Vim by calling StopVimInTerminal().
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1174
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1175 The first time you do this you won't have a screen dump yet. Create an empty
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1176 file for now, e.g.: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1177 touch src/testdir/dumps/Test_function_name_01.dump

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1179 The test will then fail, giving you the command to compare the reference dump
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1180 and the failed dump, e.g.: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1181 call term_dumpdiff("failed/Test_func.dump", "dumps/Test_func.dump")
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1182
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1183 Use this command in Vim, with the current directory set to src/testdir.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1184 Once you are satisfied with the test, move the failed dump in place of the

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1202 exactly the same way to show the desired state. Then create a screen dump
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1203 again, using a different file name: >

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1507 In the past several global variables were used for configuration. These are
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1508 deprecated and using the g:termdebug_config dictionary is preferred. When
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1509 g:termdebug_config exists the other global variables will NOT be used.
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1510 The recommended way is to start with an empty dictionary: >
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1511 let g:termdebug_config = {}

695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1513 Then you can add entries to the dictionary as mentioned below. The
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1514 deprecated global variable names are mentioned for completeness. If you are
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1515 switching over to using g:termdebug_config you can find the old variable name
695b50472e85 Fix line endings issue Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> parents: 32669 diff changeset	1516 and take over the value, then delete the deprecated variable.
