Subject: [9fans] Acme: indicator of running process
Date: Tue, 5 Mar 2013 15:27:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3282603.FHFZ2UIqkr@coil> (raw)
hi list,
a long running process (e.g. `git submodule update') does not give any
indication as to whether it is running or dead already, save for some progress
messages, if any. i would like a clear indicator in Acme's $cwd+Error window
the process outputs to.
i guess the state of the /dev/stdout of Acme's child process whould be a good
indicator for most cases. is there any handy hack to indicate whether the
/dev/stdout is open in any particular Acme window? or any other indicator
whether a process is still working or dead?
yes, i know names of processes are displayed in top Tag line, but in my cases,
usually several gits are ran along (git gui, git submodule, etc.etc.)
using p9p Acme.
cheers,
