Package: tmux Version: 0.8-4 Severity: wishlist Suppose you're running make, which executes a lengthy command like
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I../.. -I/home/Kalle/src/elinks-0.12/src -I/home/Kalle/prefix/include -O0 -g3 -ggdb -Wall -Wall -Werror -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-pointer-sign -Wno-address -fno-strict-overflow -o hierbox.o -c /home/Kalle/src/elinks-0.12/src/bfu/hierbox.c If such a command fails, it is sometimes useful to copy the command from the output of make and rerun it with some tweaks: for example, changing "-o hierbox.o -c" to "-E" in order to see the output from the preprocessor. However, because the command is so long, it gets wrapped to multiple lines; and when you copy those lines with tmux and paste them to the shell, you get a newline at each wrapping point. These newlines typically result in "zsh: command not found" error messages. GNU Screen 4.0.3 is handier there: it somehow remembers whether each newline was caused by wrapping or explicitly output to the terminal, and copies only the latter kind. I don't know the exact semantics of this feature, but anyway it would be nice to have something similar in tmux. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 Locale: LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages tmux depends on: ii libc6 2.7-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20070908-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand tmux recommends no packages. -- no debconf information
