`connect-repl` not working

[basbebe]

When I try to call connect-repl I get an error and nothing happens.

Error: 1:1: 'connect-repl' 2:5: 'connect' no such command: 'repl-new'

I'm using latest versions of kakoune and connect.kak and kitty.

my kakrc:

Do you have a repl-new command?

[basbebe]

Do you have a repl-new command?

I fear I do not.

[Taupiqueur]

In kitty, repl-new should be aliased to kitty-repl.

[basbebe]

hm…
kitty-repl works fine, thanks.
So should I have added an alias myself or is this a bug in kakoune?

[Taupiqueur]

It is automatic. Be sure the version you use has repl-new implemented.

[basbebe]

I'm on Kakoune 2020.09.01 and I don't have repl-new implemented… 🤔
kitty-repl has the alias repl…

[basbebe]

mawww/kakoune@87f9be6

It was only commited on September 1st though – I'm not sure if it was in the release

[Taupiqueur]

You can get the path to the runtime directory with:

echo %val{runtime}

Try Alt + | with:

xdg-open "$kak_runtime"

and search for kitty.kak.

[basbebe]

/usr/local/Cellar/kakoune/2020.09.01/share/kak/rc/windowing/repl/kitty.kak

[…]

alias global repl kitty-repl
alias global send-text kitty-send-text

}

[Taupiqueur]

@basbebe If you have the dolphin module enabled, you can even do:

dolphin %val{runtime}

and have the files to open in the client ❤️.

[Taupiqueur]

I guess you have to wait the next release or build master.

For the time being, just add an alias to your kakrc.

[basbebe]

nice!
thanks for the hint.
I just used nnn %val{runtime} now!

By the way: I have a few environment variables set for nnn.
Would be nice if they were used by default by the module.

[basbebe]

I guess you have to wait the next release or build master.

For the time being, just add an alias to your kakrc.

thanks, will do!

[basbebe]

I rebuilt from latest head.

Now I see a short flash when the window is created (kitty) but it disappears immediately.

[basbebe]

I think this is related to kitty since it works with tmux
