Problem: Having job_status() free the job causes problems.
Solution: Do not actually free the job or terminal yet, put it in a list and
free it a bit later. Do not use a terminal after checking the job
status. (closes#3873)
Problem: Buffer of a terminal only updated in Terminal-Normal mode.
Solution: Copy the terminal window content to the buffer when in
Terminal-Job mode.
Problem: Terminal window is redrawn too often and scrolling is repeated.
Solution: Don't scroll immediately but only when redrawing. Avoid redrawing
the whole terminal window on every change.
Problem: Can't set ANSI colors of a terminal window.
Solution: Add term_setansicolors(), term_getansicolors() and
g:term_ansi_colors. (Andy Massimino, closes#2747)
Problem: Shell commands in the GUI use a dumb terminal.
Solution: Add the "!" flag to 'guioptions' to execute system commands in a
special terminal window. Only for Unix now.
Problem: Cannot select text in a terminal with the mouse.
Solution: When a job in a terminal is not consuming mouse events, use them
for modeless selection. Also stop Insert mode when clicking in a
terminal window.
Problem: Terminal windows in a session are not properly restored.
Solution: Add "terminal" in 'sessionoptions'. When possible restore the
command running in a terminal.
Problem: Terminal window colors wrong when using Terminal highlighting.
Solution: Set ansi_index when setting the default color. Also cache the
color index for Terminal. (Ozaki Kiichi, closes#2393)
Problem: term_start() does not take callbacks. When using two terminals
without a job only one is read from. A terminal without a window
returns the wrong pty.
Solution: Support "callback", "out_cb" and "err_cb". Fix terminal without a
window. Fix reading from multiple channels.
Problem: Sending buffer lines to terminal doesn't work on MS-Windows.
Solution: Send CTRL-D to mark the end of the text. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto,
closes#2043) Add the "eof_chars" option.
Problem: Can't use the alternate screen in a terminal window.
Solution: Initialze the alternate screen. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closes
#1957) Add term_getaltscreen().
Problem: Using mouse scroll while a terminal window has focus and the mouse
pointer is on another window does not work. Same for focus in a
non-terminal window ahd the mouse pointer is over a terminal
window.
Solution: Send the scroll action to the right window.
Problem: Cannot get the name of the pty of a job.
Solution: Add the "tty" entry to the job info. (Ozaki Kiichi, closes#1920)
Add the term_gettty() function.
Problem: Terminal window status shows "[Scratch]".
Solution: Show "[Terminal]" when no title was set. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
Store the terminal title that vterm sends and use it. Update the
special buffer name. (closes#1869)
Problem: Options of a buffer for a terminal window are not set properly.
Solution: Add "terminal" value for 'buftype'. Make 'buftype' and
'bufhidden' not depend on the quickfix feature.
Also set the buffer name and show "running" or "finished" in the
window title.
Problem: No terminal emulator support. Cannot properly run commands in the
GUI. Cannot run a job interactively with an ssh connection.
Solution: Very early implementation of the :terminal command. Includes
libvterm converted to ANSI C. Many parts still missing.
