similar to: unix readline signal handling patches

Hi Peter, Martin, and others, Thanks for your replies. - The bugs apply to all systems that use GNU Readline, not just Linux or Arch Linux. - Readline version 6.3 changed the signal handling so that SIGWINCH is no longer handled automatically by the library. This means it's not currently possible for people using R on e.g. Linux to resize the terminal, or at least when they do so

I agree with Martin's summary of the situation, and with the updated NEWS entry. I'm not familiar with Subversion, can you tell me the command to use? (I tried "svn co https://svn.r-project.org/R/" but it seems to be downloading all branches) Frederick On Tue, May 24, 2016 at 04:30:11PM +0200, Martin Maechler wrote: > >>>>> peter dalgaard <pdalgd at

Dear R Devel, Sorry for sending so many emails, but I haven't heard that anyone is working on the patches I created. A few weeks ago I wanted to do something to contribute to R because I use it a lot. I picked the most annoying bugs I could find, and created two of the simplest patches I could create, but all I've had in response from the R core team (aside from briefly banning my

I had a regression in config.site so the nightly build didn't. Retrying.... Looks like it will build, but the ctl-R, ctl-C bug is still present on OSX (w/Simon's libs). This _was_ fixed for a while, was it not? (The NEWS entry is also wrong: The issue existed before readline 6.3) -pd On 24 May 2016, at 12:55 , Martin Maechler <maechler at stat.math.ethz.ch> wrote: > > Can

Agreed regarding read line-- absent mindedly using C-c to exit a search and then accidentally running garbage because the prompt looks blank but isn't continues to be a problem.

Dear Frederik, I can confirm that especially the first issue on your list (resizing the terminal) has "bothered me" badly for some time now: I'm on Ubuntu (usually).

Thanks Frederick. Mark, if you have any examples to share, they would also be gratefully received.

Ah, thank you for that explanation. I somehow didn't catch that my Bugzilla account had been disabled by a human. "Common pattern is to post ... something copied from a generic bug report" - that sounds very annoying.

Hi Just taking a bit more of a look at this today (currently fixated on making sure I can build some good regression tests). The best thing you can do is to keep reminding me like this :) Paul On 09/12/16 11:19, frederik at ofb.net wrote: > Hi Paul, > > Thanks for your efforts.

No problem. Another suggestion would be to simply validate user input like most websites, and reject invalid submissions immediately, rather than blocking the user's account. I don't know what kind of spambots you are up against, but unless they are very intelligent I doubt they'll be able to understand a message like "You submitted a bug with no body text, please enter something

Great. Thanks!

Hi The current status is that I am keen for people to contribute some testing code (see https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16951) There were also some getGraphicsEvent() changes/fixes suggested by Richard Bodewits (cc'ed), for which I am also seeking test code.

Hello R devel/help, I ran into this strange behavior: # showstack is supposed to walk through the stack of parent # environments when it is called: showstack = function() { env = environment() for(i in 1:12) { env = do.call(parent.frame, list(), env=env) print(env) } } # a simple chain of functions: g3=function(t) showstack()
