Re: Underscore uncomment bug in OSX

2015-07-24 Thread Peter M. Brigham
Here's the workaround that I have been using, in case others find it useful. I 
put it into a controlkeydown handler in my LC frontscript. All my script 
shortcuts use control-shift-key. The command doUndoSpace types a space and 
then deletes it, to make sure LC knows that editing has been done and the 
script needs re-checking. This may not be necessary in later LC versions (I 
operate still in 5.5 -- I know, I'm a dinosaur). So control-shift-underscore 
comments out a line or lines, control-shift-= uncomments a line or lines.

on controlkeydown which
   put the long name of the target into tarName
   put the shiftkey is down into shK
   switch which
  case -
  case _ -- comment out the line -- until Rev fixes the commandkey 
shortcut
 if not shK then pass controlkeydown
 if field is not in tarName then pass controlkeydown
 if revNewScriptEditor is not in tarName then pass controlkeydown
 put the selectedLine into tLineCh
 put -  - into cmntChars
 if  to  is in tLineCh then
put word 2 of tLineCh into stLineNbr
put word 4 of tLineCh into endLineNbr
repeat with n = stLineNbr to endLineNbr
   put put cmntChars  space before word 1 of line  n  of 
 tarName \
 into theDo
   do theDo
end repeat
-- put scriptLinesText into line stLineNbr to endLineNbr of the 
target
put endLineNbr into selectHere
 else
put word 2 of tLineCh into lineNbr
put the long name of the target into tLongName
put sr(line lineNbr of the target) into tLineText
do put cmntChars  space before word 1 of  tLineCh
put lineNbr into selectHere
 end if
 doUndoSpace
 send tabkey to tarname -- to fix indenting
 select after line selectHere of the target
 break
  case =
  case + -- uncomment the line -- until Rev fixes the commandkey shortcut
 if not shK then pass controlkeydown
 if field is not in tarName then pass controlkeydown
 if revNewScriptEditor is not in tarName then pass controlkeydown
 put the selectedLine into tLineCh
 if  to  is in tLineCh then
put word 2 of tLineCh into stLineNbr
put word 4 of tLineCh into endLineNbr
put line stLineNbr to endLineNbr of target into scriptLinesText
repeat with n = 1 to the number of lines of scriptLinesText
   put sr(line n of scriptLinesText) into tLineText
   if char 1 to 2 of tLineText = -  -
   then delete char 1 to 2 of tLineText
   put tLineText into line n of scriptLinesText
end repeat
put scriptLinesText into line stLineNbr to endLineNbr of the target
 else
put sr(value(tLineCh)) into tLineText
if char 1 to 2 of tLineText = -- then
   delete char 1 to 2 of tLineText
   do put tLineText into  tLineCh
end if
 end if
 doUndoSpace
 send tabkey to tarname
 break
  default
 pass controlkeydown
   end switch
end controlkeydown

private command doUndoSpace
   -- this solves the problem that after the above scripted operations
   -- the script editor remains unaware that the script has changed,
   -- so an enterkey will close but not save the changed script
   -- thus we have to *type* at least one character
   lock screen
   put the selectedText into selTxt
   type numToChar(32) -- the important step
   put word 4 of the selectedChunk into charNbr
   put selTxt into char charNbr of the target
   unlock screen
end doUndoSpace

function sr pText
   return word 1 to -1 of pText
end sr

Hi Jerry,

using your stack commenting and uncommenting works from the keyboard using
MacOSX 10.9.5 and
LC 7.1 DP1
LC 6.6.5

have you assigned a system wide shortcut via system preferences - keyboard
by any chance? Just a guess.

Kind regards

 This has never worked for me on OS X with any version of LC and I had just 
 got used to ignoring it. I have checked for conflicts and can’t find any.
 
 The strange thing is, the shortcut causes the ‘Edit’ menu to flash as though 
 it is being chosen, then I found that if I click the ‘Edit’ menu once so it 
 stays open and then use the shortcut it works! - Strange.
 
 But now seeing this works for other people I decided to play around with the 
 keyboard control panel, under the ‘Shortcuts’ tab I added an App Shortcut for 
 all applications as ‘Uncomment’ with the key combination of 'shift ctrl -‘. 
 Well that shortcut doesn’t work, but it does show as the shortcut for 
 ‘Uncomment’ in the ‘Edit’ menu of LC, but oddly, ‘shift cmd -‘ does sort of 
 work with LC 6  7 (not 5).
 
 Now if the insertion cursor is on a line of commented text within a handler, 
 using the shortcut will uncomment this line and also attempt to uncomment the 
 line above, however, if the insertion cursor is on a line of commented text 
 outside of a handler, using the shortcut will uncomment just the one line.
 
 I can add my comments to the bug report if you think it will help. I’m using 
 LC7.0.6(rc3) on OS X 10.10.4
 
 Baffled.

This has never worked for me on OS X with any version of LC and I had just got 
used to ignoring it. I have checked for conflicts and can’t find any.

The strange thing is, the shortcut causes the ‘Edit’ menu to flash as though it 
is being chosen, then I found that if I click the ‘Edit’ menu once so it stays 
open and then use the shortcut it works! - Strange.

But now seeing this works for other people I decided to play around with the 
keyboard control panel, under the ‘Shortcuts’ tab I added an App Shortcut for 
all applications as ‘Uncomment’ with the key combination of 'shift ctrl -‘. 
Well that shortcut doesn’t work, but it does show as the shortcut for 
‘Uncomment’ in the ‘Edit’ menu of LC, but oddly, ‘shift cmd -‘ does sort of 
work with LC 6  7 (not 5).

Now if the insertion cursor is on a line of commented text within a handler, 
using the shortcut will uncomment this line and also attempt to uncomment the 
line above, however, if the insertion cursor is on a line of commented text 
outside of a handler, using the shortcut will uncomment just the one line.

I can add my comments to the bug report if you think it will help. I’m using 
LC7.0.6(rc3) on OS X 10.10.4

Baffled.

 Thanks Mark, Peter, Colin and Bernd. Very mysterious! I’ll try it on a few 
 other computers at work when I get back there tomorrow.
