#!/bin/bash # preexec.bash -- Bash support for ZSH-like 'preexec' and 'precmd' functions. # The 'preexec' function is executed before each interactive command is # executed, with the interactive command as its argument. The 'precmd' # function is executed before each prompt is displayed. # To use, in order: # 1. source this file # 2. define 'preexec' and/or 'precmd' functions (AFTER sourcing this file), # 3. as near as possible to the end of your shell setup, run 'preexec_install' # to kick everything off. # Note: this module requires 2 bash features which you must not otherwise be # using: the "DEBUG" trap, and the "PROMPT_COMMAND" variable. preexec_install # will override these and if you override one or the other this _will_ break. # This is known to support bash3, as well as *mostly* support bash2.05b. It # has been tested with the default shells on MacOS X 10.4 "Tiger", Ubuntu 5.10 # "Breezy Badger", Ubuntu 6.06 "Dapper Drake", and Ubuntu 6.10 "Edgy Eft". # Copy screen-run variables from the remote host, if they're available. if [[ "$SCREEN_RUN_HOST" == "" ]] then SCREEN_RUN_HOST="$LC_SCREEN_RUN_HOST" SCREEN_RUN_USER="$LC_SCREEN_RUN_USER" fi # This variable describes whether we are currently in "interactive mode"; # i.e. whether this shell has just executed a prompt and is waiting for user # input. It documents whether the current command invoked by the trace hook is # run interactively by the user; it's set immediately after the prompt hook, # and unset as soon as the trace hook is run. preexec_interactive_mode="" # Default do-nothing implementation of preexec. function preexec () { true } # Default do-nothing implementation of precmd. function precmd () { true } # This function is installed as the PROMPT_COMMAND; it is invoked before each # interactive prompt display.

It is invoked before each # interactive prompt display.
