Interactive td-cli quits after resume pushing any arrow button
p3k opened this issue · comments
If I do this:
- Run
td -i - Suspend with
^Z - Resume with
fg - Press arrow down button ↓ to select next entry
– then td-cli simply quits and I need to restart it.
Not sure if this is an effect of my setup, would be glad if someone could verify / try to reproduce.
Yuup, happens to me as well. I only use the vim keybindings (hjkl), so I haven't seen this before :). Doesn't happen with hjkl.
Will fix it!
Thanks for the issue.
well, thank you for td-cli and your swift reply.
Spent some time debugging this and I believe this is an issue with Python Curses.
After resuming a suspended task, the arrow keys indeed return the escape character from Python Curses which td-cli correctly interprets as exiting the interactive mode.
I currently don't have time to take this further. The next steps would be to file an issue with Python Curses regarding the stdscr.getch() + arrow keys + resuming fg = escape (27).
i see, seems to be a rabbit hole… if i find the time i am going to take a look at the python curses repo and maybe file an issue.
in the meantime i am training my muscle memory with the vim keybindings 💪

Awesome, thanks!
Lol, yeah the vim keybindings take time to adjust :).
I've submitted an issue for this:

great! i took a coarse look yesterday but was not sure whether i am capable of providing the necessary information. glad you did now :) cheers.
Closing this one since td-cli can't fix it (needs to be resolved by curses)
