BashStyle-NG v8.1

BashStyle-NG Logo BashStyle-NG is a graphical tool for changing the behaviour of GNU Bash, Readline, Vim and Nano. It also shipps a huge scriptchain which extends your abilities.

The huge scriptchain is used internally by the different styles shipped, but of course may also be used externally by your scripts.

Basically everything should be documented (might not be the case for GIT).

Internal Styles shipped: 12

ChangeLog:

Overview of changes in v8.1 “Sonic Empire”

=== Bug fixes ===

* #138 (ui): don’t enforce window to be centered
* #139 (configure, ui): add ability to specify which python interpreter to use
* #140 (nx-rc): make sure PATH is setup early (fixes issue that bs-ng-wizard is not available on bash startup)
* #141 (functions): make functions properly include check_opt again, so that it actually works

=== Removed features ===

* show_weather function
* show_battery_load –apm (now only using acpi)

=== Other changes ===

* drop optional dependency on lynx
* drop optional dependency on apm
* add dependency on less
* add optional dependency on ghostscript
* updated debian/control

=== configure 4.2.1 ===

* configure now accepts –girpath argument (girpath to use)
* configure now accepts –mode argument (user = check dependencies, maintainer = don’t check dependencies (speed up re-builds))
* configure now accepts –dirinfo argument (replacing –dirinfo-enable and –dirinfo-disable arguments)
* configure now accepts –python argument (python interpreter to use, part of fixing bug #139)

* configure now accepts –bindir argument

* configure now accepts –docdir argument

  That is because “cherrymoon” is a 32bit repo.
  
  For 64bit use “photonic” instead.

Quick question.

I enabled lscd to replace cd, but whenever I use it, I get the following error
“– /home/rfonteyn –

No notes.

content:
more: unknown option “-o”
usage: more [-dflpcsu] [+linenum | +/pattern] name1 name2 …
”

Where can I find the configuration that references this option?

Forget about my previous remark. Found the solution.

BTW. You might consider including a check for existing functions and/or aliases. I had a few errors related to ll and ls which existed already and broke your functions.

  Where did you define those functions, when where they loaded? Before or after BS-NG?
  
  You might also consider writing a bug-report at tickets.nanolx.org (can be done without registering)

They were aliases created in my .bashrc. So they were loaded before BS-NG.

It’s not a biggie. I just removed those aliases from my .bashrc.

  Sorry, but I switched to 64bit Debian months ago, and in december -when I moved the provider- I removed the 32bit repo (completely outdated).
  
  But: you can grab the .deb from the 64bit repo manually, as BS-NG is architecture-independent.

Well…I did something stupid and deleted my bin directory in /home/username. Now when I launch a terminal I get:
bash: /usr/share/bashstyle-ng/rc/nx-rcPATH=/home/highlander/bin:/home/highlander/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/home/highlander/.local/bin:/home/highlander/.local/bin: No such file or directory

I tried reinstalling BS-NG and no change.

  /usr/share/bashstyle-ng/rc/nx-rcPATH=…
  
  it looks like there’s a newline missing. Open your $HOME/.bashrc and split the line in:
  
  /usr/share/bashstyle-ng/rc/nx-rc
  
  and
  
  PATH=/home/highlander/bin:/home/highlander/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/home/highlander/.local/bin:/home/highlander/.local/bin
  
  I’ll check later if it’s a bug in BS-NG but I believe it’s not.

      I’ll provide you a new .deb soon.
      
      Either way, v7.99 (8.0 Beta), will be using ConfigObj instead of GConf, so that error won’t raise anymore in future versions.
      
      Else you might want to install v7.12.1 manually (./configure && make && sudo make install), as this error only happens for .deb installations.

      OK. Try this package:
      
      http://www.nanolx.org/apt/pool/main/b/bashstyle-ng/bashstyle-ng_7.12.2-1nano_all.deb

There is a rpm package for Fedora?

  No, there isn’t an RPM. But you may request one at Fedora BugZilla or from some Fedora Community-Repo.

Is there any way I can force the checks from configure to look for a specific python version? I’m running on ArchLinux which allows several python versions to be installed at the same time and python 3 is simply called “python”, but python 2 “python2″ (or “python2.7), so the configure seems to look for the python 3 modules (specificially ConfigObj doesn’t exist for python 3)
