1 Right click to plumb 2 ==================== 3 Pretty much like plan9's acme and plumber: right-click some selected text to 4 send it to the plumbing program of your choosing: 5 6 * open an URL in a browser 7 * view an image, PDF, ... 8 * jump from logs to editor, at the specified line/col 9 * etc 10 11 The shell current working directory is set by the shell via `OSC 7` (borrowed 12 from vte, see `/etc/profile.d/vte.sh` if you have it installed). 13 14 For zsh : 15 __vte_urlencode() ( 16 # This is important to make sure string manipulation is handled 17 # byte-by-byte. 18 LC_ALL=C 19 str="$1" 20 while [ -n "$str" ]; do 21 safe="${str%%[!a-zA-Z0-9/:_\.\-\!\'\(\)~]*}" 22 printf "%s" "$safe" 23 str="${str#"$safe"}" 24 if [ -n "$str" ]; then 25 printf "%%%02X" "'$str" 26 str="${str#?}" 27 fi 28 done 29 ) 30 31 __vte_osc7 () { 32 printf "\033]7;%s%s\a" "${HOSTNAME:-}" "$(__vte_urlencode "${PWD}")" 33 } 34 35 [ -n "$ZSH_VERSION" ] && precmd_functions+=(__vte_osc7) 36 37 The patch itself only adds a `cwd` global and a button3 entry that will run a 38 shell, change directory to cwd and run the plumber with the primary selection. 39 Maybe I should use pass cwd as an argument too, like plan9 plumber does. 40 41 The plumbing program can be defined via `config.h`: 42 43 static char plumber[] = "plumb.sh"; 44 45 Download 46 -------- 47 * [right\_click\_to\_plumb.diff](right_click_to_plumb.diff) (2017-09-11) 48 49 Authors 50 ------- 51 * [jerome](http://blog.jardinmagique.info) <jerome@gcu.info> 52 53 A simpler plumb patch 54 ===================== 55 The plumbing command is run in the working directory of the shell, with as 56 parameter the text selected with the mouse. 57 58 Configuration is done in config.h and an example is supplied in config.def.h: 59 60 static char *plumb_cmd = "plumb"; 61 62 I made this version since I had a hard time understanding how the OSC 7 stuff 63 works and I preferred a full C implementation of a plumbing patch. 64 65 Download 66 -------- 67 * [plumb\_without\_shell\_OSC.diff](plumb_without_shell_OSC.diff) (2018-11-03) 68 69 Authors 70 ------- 71 * [john](http://roxor.me) <j@roxor.me> 72 73 A simpler, more flexible plumb patch 74 ==================================== 75 A further development on the previous patch to allow for specifying the command line 76 77 static char *plumb_cmd[] = {"plumb", "-m", NULL, NULL}; 78 79 My plumb utility takes on the stdin by default, and requires another option to 80 be passed input on the command line, so I made this to allow for that. It can be 81 applied on its own, without the other patches. It replaces the first NULL with 82 the current selection. 83 84 Download 85 -------- 86 * [simple_plumb-0.8.5.diff](simple_plumb-0.8.5.diff) (2022-01-18) 87 * [simple_plumb.diff](simple_plumb.diff) (2020-04-10) 88 89 Authors 90 ------- 91 * [dallin](https://dallinjdahl.github.io/) <dallinjdahl@gmail.com> 92 * [Alexander Arkhipov](gopher://mineeyes.cyou/) (0.8.5 port) 93
