This one may be a very easy one to implement - I really hope so.
An option in preferences, which makes any command sent via the send() function, have a command echo on the main screen.
I ask for this, because debugging a curing system is really difficult without knowing what gets sent when - but once a curing system is working well, it would be nice to simply turn that off.
I know that I can echo stuff in my scripts, and that perhaps with the right amount of indirection it would even be possible to toggle on/off with a single alias, but that sort of thing needs initial planning. Implementing it after the fact would take a LOT of effort, and it seems to me that if the toggle could be within the send function itself, everyone could benefit without doing that.
I.e.
Checkbox in preferences:
(*) Enable command echo for send() function?
Edit: If I had thought about it ages ago, I could have done the following, but to make the change now, I would have to change every single instance of "send" in the whole profile, which would take hours
Code: Select all
function mysend(c)
if sendecho==1 then echo(c) end
send(c)
end
