- Irssi saves some setting strings to static const char * variables in
|
|
several places.. this works pretty well usually, except when /RELOADing
|
|
config and some "setup changed" signal handler goes and calls some
|
|
function that still uses the old saved string which points to free'd
|
|
memory.. this should somehow be fixed failsafe. maybe just g_strdup()
|
|
them everywhere or figure out something better..
|
|
- move /FORMATs to default.theme and remove /FORMAT command? or include
|
|
"default.formats" in default.theme would be better.. this way it could
|
|
have comments and /FORMATs shouldn't really be changed anyway anymore.
|
|
- netjoin doesn't always show @ before nick even if it should be there?..
|
|
- if there's two channels in one window and same nick netsplits out,
|
|
should it print the split message twice?
|
|
- when someone in notify list joins, should it be placed to start of
|
|
/MSG completion list?
|
|
|
|
- windows:
|
|
- /WINDOW SIZE -sticky, so f.e. /WINDOW BALANCE wouldn't affect it.
|
|
- /LAYOUT save|reset doesn't affect anything immediately, only after
|
|
restart
|
|
- Check that /LAYOUT SAVE works properly with all the different /SETs,
|
|
like reuse_unsued_windows, windows_auto_renumber and autoclose_windows.
|
|
What should it do if some channel is /PARTed with autoclose_windows
|
|
set?..
|
|
- /WINDOW scrollback_lines /WINDOW scrollback_hours
|
|
- Optionally always start the lines from bottom of the screen when
|
|
screen is empty (how would scrolling work?)
|
|
- /WINDOW SCROLL OFF - window wouldn't scroll down automatically
|
|
- Vertically split windows
|
|
|
|
- Keyboard handling:
|
|
- /BIND: key definitions should be changed to be more epic-like.. :
|
|
/bind ^[ key meta, /bind meta-O key meta2, /bind meta-[ key meta2
|
|
/bind meta2-c echo Ctrl-Left pressed
|
|
and maybe
|
|
/bind meta2-C key left, /bind meta-left echo meta-left pressed
|
|
- Some kind of state support for it, so it would be possible to make
|
|
support for vi keys easily.
|
|
- Editor-like (or bash-like) line editor - it would wrap to next line
|
|
instead of scrolling.
|
|
- When pasting text, irssi could notice it and ask "pasting 30 lines
|
|
of text, ok?" .. Could send some signal that sends the pasted lines
|
|
in GList which signal handlers could modify. Also the first pasted
|
|
line could be somehow buffered so that it isn't sent immediately
|
|
so these paste handlers could modify it too.
|
|
- Already existing / at start of line handler should use this
|
|
- Automatically remove empty space at the start/end of lines,
|
|
from start of line it would work so that if each line begins with
|
|
4 spaces but some more, it would only remove those 4 spaces from
|
|
each so pasting code wouldn't mess up indents etc.
|
|
- Skip all autoreplaces and completions, so that f.e. tabs are
|
|
printed as-is
|
|
- Should empty lines be pasted too? Maybe optionally
|
|
|
|
- Notify list:
|
|
- It's buggy. too buggy. -idle seems to work fine but other than that
|
|
it seems to have several problems, sometimes not saying if user has
|
|
quit.
|
|
- <tommik> hmm, I just did /notify nick, /unnotify nick, /notify nick OPN
|
|
and now /notify shows the nick in all networks I'm connected to
|
|
- /NOTIFY -away and -idle: support for wildcards in nicks (requires of
|
|
course that we're in same channel as nick)
|
|
- Automatically add queried nicks to notify list temporarily .. display
|
|
the notifys for the nick in the query window
|
|
- /NOTIFY -once - notify only once when the user comes to IRC, forget
|
|
this after it.
|
|
- /NOTIFY -comment xxx - add a comment to notify. print the comment when
|
|
user comes to irc.
|
|
- "Should we check people in notify list when you're away" option
|
|
|
|
Scrollback:
|
|
- Optionally show a "bookmark" (line mark actually, a line full of '-'
|
|
chars) in a window. It would be displayed at the position where you
|
|
were when the window was active last time. /MARK command to force
|
|
updating it to bottom of screen in active window.
|
|
- --more-- should be displayed *only* when there's new text at the
|
|
bottom of the screen, not when you scroll up a bit and go visit another
|
|
window for a while..
|
|
- /SCROLLBACK REDRAW doesn't do anything to non-format lines (should
|
|
redraw timestamp, etc.)
|
|
- /last 05032 ... didn't really do what I wanted :) maybe I should change
|
|
the syntax to have -max parameter instead? Or /LAST -public 1000 would
|
|
be ok, but /LAST 1000 would treat 1000 as word.. hmm..
|
|
- /LAST -since <timestamp>
|
|
|
|
- Formats / themes:
|
|
- Possibility to modify abstracts and replaces in themes from irssi.
|
|
- Document the different formats briefly :)
|
|
- /FORMATs don't have styling anymore, so translation to different
|
|
languages should be possible with still the ability to use different
|
|
themes easily. /SET formats <filename> could change the file where
|
|
to read all /FORMATs, but formats in theme file would override them.
|
|
|
|
- Logging:
|
|
- Autologging has some problems if we're printing to some target without
|
|
server. Happens at least with "starting query with xxx" when restoring
|
|
queries at startup (saved with /LAYOUT SAVE). Also those logs will
|
|
never be automatically closed..
|
|
|
|
- Server commands:
|
|
- Optionally wait for a while (0.5-1sec) before sending the message to
|
|
server, if arrow up key is pressed abort it. Also remove the line from
|
|
screen and put some notice about it being not sent.
|
|
- /FLUSHSERVER or something that would remove commands from transmit
|
|
queue. Maybe with optional parameter what kind of commands to remove
|
|
(/FLUSHSERVER mode would remove all modes). Useful for example if you
|
|
want to abort /OP *.
|
|
- If we receive "cannot send to channel" from server or "you're not
|
|
chanop" events, remove the privmsgs/notices or modes/kicks/etc. from
|
|
send queue automatically. Useful for aborting things when you get
|
|
kicked after pasting lots of text or deopped after doing /OP * or
|
|
something ;)
|
|
- Split PRIVMSGs and NOTICEs automatically to multiple commands if
|
|
their length exceeds the 512 bytes (or it should be shorter actually
|
|
so server won't split it when it adds your nick+host mask)
|
|
|
|
- server connecting:
|
|
- Don't try to restore user modes set by server automatically when
|
|
reconnecting to another server. Like when server sets +r mode to you
|
|
you won't get rid of it until you /disconnect.
|
|
- DNS problems may cause removal of i-line, irssi shouldn't stop
|
|
trying to reconnect the server if it happens.. Maybe it never should
|
|
stop reconnecting to servers that are in config.
|
|
- /RECONNECT <servertag> - If <servertag> belongs to some IRC network,
|
|
reconnect to next server in that ircnet, otherwise just reconnect
|
|
to the server.
|
|
- /SERVER <number> would connect to n'th server in list. Show the
|
|
numbers with /SERVER LIST
|
|
- /CONNECT <ircnet> could remove existing ircnet connection from
|
|
reconnect queue if it exists (only if there's only one?). Also if
|
|
we're already connected to the ircnet it could complain about it
|
|
and -yes would force it.
|
|
|
|
- Tab completion:
|
|
- Complete aliases
|
|
- Command completion doesn't work properly when -options are used.
|
|
- Possibility to complete -option parameters? Like -ircnet <tab>, also
|
|
/MSG -servertag<tab> and /LAST -level<tab> should work. All of these
|
|
require some command definition changes..
|
|
- bash-style (or whatever it shoulda be called) tab-completion
|
|
- key for reverse completion
|
|
|
|
- Statusbar:
|
|
- It now sometimes wraps to next line messing up screen
|
|
- Should be configurable. See http://irssi.org/files/statusbar.txt
|
|
for what it probably should look like.
|
|
- When starting to run out of space some items could be made smaller,
|
|
activity for example .. make some generic flag for items to use.
|
|
- Add user counts (ops/voices/normal/total)
|
|
|
|
- Modules:
|
|
- Figure out module vs. plugin wording, what is what ;)
|
|
- API for plugins which would be guaranteed not to change
|
|
(at least too much/too often :)
|
|
- "chat protocol modules" - they could be loaded at startup so they'd be
|
|
equal to IRC protocol (autoconnecting servers would work etc.)
|
|
- on-demand autoload modules (f.e. by /command or maybe some signal)
|
|
- Try to make them create only .so files instead of .a and all..
|
|
|
|
- perl scripting:
|
|
- /SCRIPT for listing scripts, /SCRIPT REMOVE <name>|ALL,
|
|
/SCRIPT PERL RELOAD == ex. /PERLFLUSH
|
|
- /PERL command - how does signal_add() work with it? probably not well.
|
|
How to remove those scripts? etc. /SCRIPT could show them as some
|
|
anonymous scripts, maybe list the whole script in the line..
|
|
- Possibility to modify entry line somehow
|
|
- Possibility to use "complete word" signal, needs GSList** handling
|
|
- Add structures: CHATNET_REC, MODULE_REC, THEME_REC, KEYINFO_REC,
|
|
CHAT_PROTOCOL_REC
|
|
- signal_emit() - if emitting unknown signal, it could automatically
|
|
save the types of sent parameters so another perl script could
|
|
signal_add() it.
|
|
- Perl module and the Irssi and Irssi::Irc libraries could have some
|
|
version checks so that if they don't match it would complain.
|
|
- Dependencies don't work with .xs files..
|
|
|
|
- Bigger code changes:
|
|
- Restructure code tree so that non-IRC chat protocols would be in
|
|
same places than IRC protocol. Something like:
|
|
- src/irc (like now)
|
|
- src/irc/fe-common, src/irc/fe-text
|
|
SILC could then make symlinks to src/silc to whereever the SILC
|
|
module was unpacked. Make it possible to build SILC support built-in.
|
|
- /SETs have now boolean/number/string types. Add more:
|
|
- Time: Allow to use s|m|h|d to specify the time, default to
|
|
seconds. When sending reply to user, use the time formatting too,
|
|
not just x seconds or minutes. "10d 5s" should also work.
|
|
- Level: Like "all -msgs -public". Complain about unknown strings.
|
|
- Reading configuration file should be changed somehow .. at least add
|
|
some helper functions for reading lists since comments inside them
|
|
now crash irssi. Also if setting wasn't expected type can cause
|
|
crashes so add proper error checkings everywhere. And is_node_list()
|
|
etc. should be in uppercase..
|
|
- Would this work..? : command_bind() could specify the parameters
|
|
it uses, then some generic command parser could parse the commands
|
|
and options and if all is ok, send the parsed parameters directly with
|
|
signal_emit() .. I'm just thinking some type checking problems but
|
|
if all commands would be in format SERVER_REC, WI_ITEM_REC,
|
|
GHashTable *options, char ** (NULL terminated parameters list) .. ?
|
|
- GLib's g_mem_chunks does some weird things which seem pretty useless
|
|
(keeping memory blocks in a tree), replace them with our own memory
|
|
block allocator. GLists and GSLists waste some memory, would be better
|
|
if I just made prev/next pointers to structures and used some #defines
|
|
to traverse back and forth.
|
|
- All there dynamic memory allocations are making lots of memory
|
|
fragmentation. Maybe creating our own memory manager would be good
|
|
idea? :) Separate allocator for temporary and non-temporary memory
|
|
allocations could help some. Use mmap() if possible so we could
|
|
actually free the memory with munmap() sometimes..
|
|
|
|
- /SET -reset?
|
|
- /SET awaylog_auto_clear (after setting yourself unaway)
|
|
- can't have multiple ignore -patterns with same nick
|
|
- /ignore -strip -pattern away * actions ..
|
|
- module_uniq_destroy() - those calls are probably wrong .. for CHANNEL and
|
|
QUERY at least?
|
|
- /ban -time <opt numeric>, /ban -ip?
|
|
/alias knockout kick $0 $1-;ban -time $0
|
|
- /HILIGHT: list doesn't print several options. Maybe some generic function
|
|
which could be used for printing those options for all these /ircnet,
|
|
/server add, etc. commands. /IGNORE -pattern isn't printed.
|
|
- /HILIGHT -mask <mask> <word>: not possible use both. Case sensitive
|
|
hilight checking.
|
|
- possibility to use $[123]0 in themes files. Like with $[9]0 in msgnick.
|
|
- hide_mirc_colors doesn't work properly, it hides also colors irssi tries
|
|
to print itself, like with /HILIGHT. They should be removed somewhere
|
|
earlier.. but where? Those should be removed from messages, quit/kick/etc.
|
|
reasons but not from at least usernames, bans and channels (maybe they
|
|
should be changed to actually print <invert>C</invert>number instead of
|
|
coloring it)
|
|
- -f configfile command line option. /SAVE should use that file too.
|
|
- nick completion shouldn't try completing nicks everywhere, like /SET <tab>
|
|
- File completion could guess when it's wanted, word beginning with / (not
|
|
at start of line of course, unless / isn't in cmdchars) or ~/ or ./ and
|
|
- utf8 support
|
|
- /connect -! : don't autojoin to channels
|
|
- /names without parameters should probably default to /names *, and add
|
|
the possibility to show all names with /names ** (just like /who works)
|
|
|
|
- printnickmsg() which would print nick changes and quit messages. And
|
|
export that function to perl so kills.pl could print kills with it too.
|
|
- /MSG a,b,#c,#d - it should print the message to #c and #d channel windows
|
|
and show only "a,b" as target when printing it to msg window.. Or if
|
|
autoquery is set, it should print them to those windows. Hmm. maybe some
|
|
multipeople query support? :) /query nick1,nick2 and sending text there
|
|
would send it to both. Seems to work already but receiving messages from
|
|
either nick1 or nick2 don't go to that window..
|
|
- /MSG =dcc_chat,#channel doesn't work, same for /CTCP.
|
|
- regexp host masks
|
|
- irssi proxy: when writing msg in proxy, send them to clients.
|
|
- /SAVE -all: save all /SETs and /FORMATs.
|
|
- dcc time left
|
|
- ban list prints "x seconds ago" .. should be x days, mins, hours, ..
|
|
- some script to handle ctcp floods, like doing /IGNORE * CTCPS when it
|
|
happens.
|
|
- netsplit quit isn't printed if quit -> join -> quit -> join happens fast
|
|
|
|
*** New stuff in TODO, try to get rid of these :)
|
|
|
|
- /ignore -activity .. would ignore it just in window activity list,
|
|
not hide the text.
|
|
- when dcc chat is accepted and query exists from the same nick, replace
|
|
the query window with the dcc chat window.
|
|
|
|
- try profiling the code with /cat filewith10000lines
|
|
- automatically switch to status window when using commands that always
|
|
print their output to status window, like /whois.
|
|
- automatic whowas if whois wasn't found should be moved to fe-common.
|
|
it could also print something like "nick $0 not in IRC, but this user
|
|
WAS in IRC:"
|
|
- Add command for changing automatic replaces (/replace)
|
|
- commands to move channels and servers in the config list, to set the
|
|
join/connect order of them.
|
|
- Make /SET HOLD_MODE
|
|
- /CAT should pause on every screenful of text, this should be some kind of
|
|
printtext_multiline_paused() function which would use some callback to
|
|
ask for new text.
|
|
- /ON and /TIMER commands
|
|
- All those options to /WHO and /LIST commands that EPIC has
|
|
- /SCROLLBACK FIND ?
|
|
- nick/channel lists at right side of the text version of irssi. Ctrl-N
|
|
for example could hide/show them. add mouse support for it.
|
|
- /password command that asks you to type the password to entry line and
|
|
would hide it with asterisks, good if people spy on you :)
|
|
- CTCP #channel HISTORY # - give # last lines of history from channel
|
|
|
|
*** Bugs
|
|
|
|
- still some problems in detecting floods right? not sure, couldn't
|
|
reproduce the problem again..
|
|
- match_wildcards(), mask="*a?c*", data="abdabc"
|
|
|
|
*** GTK UI
|
|
|
|
- %| doesn't work with irssi text widget
|
|
- some problems when using multiple windows with focus being all the time in
|
|
one of the windows and it can't be changed to different window?! Probably
|
|
has something to do with click to focus.
|
|
- split windows are buggy, destroying them doesn't really work well..
|
|
- mirc ctcp togglemenuitem isn't updated right
|
|
|
|
*** Big things
|
|
|
|
- some sort of address book? our own irssi ctcp to ask for other irssi users
|
|
for their information (of course not without asking (except optionally))..
|
|
could be nice also to automatically update it, keep track of all seen
|
|
users gathered when joining channels, whois, who, etc. commands.
|
|
automatically updating information could be host masks, nicks, ips, seen in
|
|
channels, operator in channels, .. user specified checks like last topic or
|
|
mode changes or even msgs to you/some channel/with some keyword. great for
|
|
spying people ;) maybe even useful sometimes..
|
|
|
|
.. but what database would be best for this?
|
|
|
|
- GTK (non-GNOME) version: icons to toolbars, accelerators to menus
|
|
- Windows style MDI windows are possible with GtkFixed .. Some people would
|
|
like this.. too much job for me, it would need building the MDI windows
|
|
ourself (title bar, borders, resizing, etc.)
|
|
|
|
- online help, documentation, ...
|
|
- plugins:
|
|
- scheme, tcl, python scripting? eggdrop/epic compatible scripting?
|
|
- IRC bot, eggdrop is too old, needs a replacement ;) (started)
|
|
- DCC file server (xdcc, fserver), I'm not too excited about these,
|
|
maybe someone else wants to do it..
|
|
- Multiplayer games! :) Chess, tic-tac-toe, othello, battleship, tetris,
|
|
etc. Existing games should probably be used .. though there doesn't
|
|
seem to be any of these (except tetris) for gnome right now..
|
|
- audio / video chat :)
|
|
|
|
*** Needs rethinking ..
|
|
|
|
* Notify list GUI
|
|
- _one_ popup dialog could open which lists all nicks in notifylist, maybe
|
|
sorted by arrival time, display the dates, latest joined could be with
|
|
different color? etc.
|
|
- nick-specific options:
|
|
- pop up the dialog
|
|
- run some command (like /exec as soon as I get that done :)
|
|
|
|
* common api for statusbar handling
|
|
- it should work just as well in text mode and gui, colors could be done
|
|
with the normal % formats. GUI just ignores the colors..
|
|
- display number of ops, voices, normals and ircops in statusbar
|
|
|
|
* API for creating/modifying menus and toolbar, especially from plugins
|
|
- at least one configurable menu ("usermenu"), or maybe make the whole
|
|
menubar user configurable
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Stuff to do
|
|
|
|
- you could configure which events (whois, notify, etc.) to show in what
|
|
windows (all, current, status, msgs)
|
|
- implement requesting files with DCC GET from remote client for dcc file
|
|
servers. good for people behind firewalls.
|
|
- /CLONES command (with script)
|
|
- {}|~ are same as []\^ (not in all irc networks) - does this really affect
|
|
irssi at all..?
|
|
|
|
*** ..in GTK UI .. just some things to remember if i'll rewrite it again.
|
|
|
|
- itext:
|
|
- save/find text
|
|
- text selection draws the entire selection every time you move the
|
|
mouse...
|
|
- if some other window has got much text, switching to it first time
|
|
takes some time..?
|
|
- editor in setup for ~/.irssi/startup
|
|
- dcc floods could pop up lots of dialogs..
|
|
- gui help
|
|
- change signal handling in gui-gnome so that the actual drawing and
|
|
functionality are in different signals, so that plugin could change the
|
|
whole look and feel of irssi.
|
|
- currently irssi sends USERHOST commands every now and then to find out
|
|
who are away and who are not.. optionally it could instead just watch if
|
|
someone hasn't written anything to channel in n minutes and mark it "away"
|
|
to nicklist.
|
|
- check new irssi versions with http rather than with irssibot..
|
|
- gnome statubar:
|
|
- clock?
|
|
- dcc transfer meter (gtk progressbar)
|
|
- dcc send: allow selection of multiple files to send (also for dnd from
|
|
gmc!) Allow dropping files to anywhere in irssi.
|
