What I want to achieve is to bind Ctrl-C to clearing the line without issuing a newline ( à la ipython) only when editing the command line, while keeping Ctrl-C as the interrupt signal triggerer when a command is running. I'm using bindkey -v
, ie vi-mode line editing, but I believe it's not relevant.
As a side note, I wish this feature will not create situations where Ctrl-C would not interrupt a running command.
I'm digging into this on my spare time, so I'll be interested in any clues. If I find something robust enough I'll post it as an answer indeed.
Any function named TRAPINT
inside your.zshrc will trap interrupt signals sent by Ctrl-C. Inside there, you will want to test if you are in insert mode, which can be achieved by testing the ${KEYMAP}
variable. If it isn't, you should pass the return value of the parent process (see this answer for a hint on this). This leads us to the following snippet:
TRAPINT() {
if [[ "${KEYMAP}" = "viins" -o "${KEYMAP}" = "main" ]]; then
zle kill-whole-line
else
return ${128+$1}
fi
}
This will work if you use vi-mode line editing. It should also catch emacs-mode, where KEYMAP
should be set to main
, although I did not test this specific use case.
