* Pasting of long lines to ZLE is buggy under Mac OS X @ 2008-10-02 6:55 Vincent Lefevre 2008-10-02 8:17 ` Stephane Chazelas 0 siblings, 1 reply; 6+ messages in thread From: Vincent Lefevre @ 2008-10-02 6:55 UTC (permalink / raw) To: zsh-workers It seems that zsh 4.3.6 suffers from a buffering problem when pasting long lines under Mac OS X (at least 10.4.11).

Here (4.3.6-dev-0+0925), it seems zsh reads one character at a time, and for every character, surprisingly, it does: read(10, "."..., 1) = 1 fcntl64(0, F_DUPFD, 10) = 11 close(0) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [CHLD], 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [CHLD], 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [CHLD], [CHLD], 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [CHLD], [CHLD], 8) = 0 dup2(11, 0) = 0 close(11) = 0 write(10, "."..., 1.) = 1 It doesn't do that on another machine with 4.3.6-dev-0+0925 (debian x86 as well) where it just does: read(10, "f"..., 1) = 1 write(10, "f"..., 1f) = 1 But if zsh reads one character at a time, it's difficult to explain how big copy pastes cause problems. -- Stéphane ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

If it's nonzero then zsh attempts to compensate for an expected slow terminal by using poll() or select() which might account for extra activity (though I'd expect those to show up directly as system calls). Also remember that every keystroke executes a zle widget. Normally that's self-insert that doesn't do anything special, but it could be overridden with a user-defined widget that does other things. For example, if you're running the predictive typing widget on one of those machines, every keystroke calls the completion system. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

BTW, ksh and tcsh have the same problem, but not bash. Perhaps there's some limitation in the tty driver and bash works in some way that it is not affected by this limitation. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vincent@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
