Re: [Bug-apl] Ctrl-D and )off

[Tobia Conforto]

Actually, by setting CONTROL-Ds-TO-EXIT 1, I have to type it twice and I still get the message, plus the extra blank lines:

$ apl
      ^D
      ^D

      *** end of input

$

If I set it to 2, I have to type it 3 times, with the message, and so on. I have tried the latest svn head on both GNU/Linux and OS X.

Hi Tobia,

thanks, fixed ^D count in SVN 517.

Actuallly, we are not using readline. And the message should not occur if you
set the control-D count > 0. I would leave the message as is because this is a
rather unusual situation and the user should always be informed about it.

Thank you Jürgen.

I'm not sure values > 1 are working properly, but maybe that's just my system. I've set it to 1 anyways.

As for the output messages, I suggest the attached changes, because 1) readline is already ending CIN on Ctrl-D, so we don't need to output another endl; 2) that "*** end of input" can be silenced with uprefs.silent ;-)
