Sup, thanks for sup!
I have been with (mutt+mairix)-in-screen guy for a while, now I am considering sup -- it seems quite nice, although it took days to import my inbox (26k messages) without yet touching any lists in the other folders (where I am going to assign some tags on import whenever I get more familiar with sup). One of the side-effects was: since I was not "processing" fetched emails while they were fetched by sup, inbox listing was growing and growing until UI became barely responsive and I guess good chunk of CPU time was taken to handle just UI. So, it might be desirable to have automatic way to 'hide' older messages in the listing whenever more and more new ones come in? FWIW some of the issues I hit: 1. At first I was running released version shipped with Debian sid (0.8.1-1), and while I was watching a thread and decided to archive and jump to next I pressed sequence ",a" and then sup crashed entirely with: --- NoMethodError from thread: main undefined method `mark_dirty' for nil:NilClass /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/line-cursor-mode.rb:55:in `set_cursor_pos' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:148:in `launch_another_thread' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:131:in `launch_next_thread_after' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-view-mode.rb:473:in `dispatch' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-view-mode.rb:431:in `archive_and_then' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-view-mode.rb:418:in `archive_and_next' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/mode.rb:50:in `send' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/mode.rb:50:in `handle_input' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/buffer.rb:249:in `handle_input' /usr/bin/sup-mail:236 2. further I was hit with another one (see below) for which I think I found a fix 1dbe8fe8b2a57803d697739b4a585e72b1f91885 which seems relevant http://gitorious.org/sup/ehabkost-hacks/commit/1dbe8fe8b2a57803d697739b4a585e72b1f91885 but it never was absorbed in mainline Here is actual traceback --- NoMethodError from thread: poll after loading inbox undefined method `content_width' for nil:NilClass /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:866:in `from_width' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:792:in `text_for_thread_at' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/hook.rb:134:in `each_with_index' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:791:in `each' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:791:in `each_with_index' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:791:in `text_for_thread_at' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:752:in `regen_text' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:354:in `map_with_index' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/hook.rb:134:in `each_with_index' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:354:in `each' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:354:in `each_with_index' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:354:in `map_with_index' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:752:in `regen_text' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:228:in `update' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:696:in `add_or_unhide' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/thread-index-mode.rb:186:in `handle_added_update' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/update.rb:27:in `send' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/update.rb:27:in `relay' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/update.rb:27:in `each' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/update.rb:27:in `relay' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:513:in `send' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:513:in `method_missing' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:162:in `add_messages_from' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/maildir.rb:130:in `each' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/maildir.rb:127:in `upto' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/maildir.rb:127:in `each' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:552:in `send' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:552:in `__pass' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:539:in `method_missing' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:141:in `add_messages_from' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:98:in `do_poll' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:86:in `each' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:86:in `do_poll' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:85:in `synchronize' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:85:in `do_poll' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:513:in `send' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:513:in `method_missing' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/modes/poll-mode.rb:17:in `poll' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/poll.rb:53:in `poll' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:513:in `send' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/sup/util.rb:513:in `method_missing' /usr/bin/sup-mail:204 3. btw -- I wonder why git repository has no actual tags but just "like converted from svn" off-branches for each release? is that a feature or a bug (like forgotten --tags upon push ;)) 4. in general -- should I follow the crash message and complain here or just report bugs within Debian using reportbug? 5. Since for me released sup had too many corner stones to run reliably I've decided to run from git. Looking at the git history, it looked like I should stick to the 'next' branch. Is that correct? 6. In code from next branch (09e6a71e232d2d3352fe45b13789c3441e3ac937) which I run with "ruby -I lib -w bin/sup" (sorry if there is a better way I didn't find, this is my first ever experience with Ruby-based project), I hit some new issues: * periodically some warnings are dumped to stderr which obscures current UI rendering... ie warnings like /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/time.rb:180: warning: 2 digits year is used imho they should go to the same log, shouldn't they? * some "elderly" crash where I don't remember the context which caused it unknown drawable object: nil in #<Redwood::LabelListMode:0x7f9272cadfa8> for line 3 ./lib/sup/modes/scroll-mode.rb:200:in `draw_line' ./lib/sup/modes/line-cursor-mode.rb:52:in `draw_line' ./lib/sup/modes/line-cursor-mode.rb:120:in `cursor_up' ./lib/sup/mode.rb:51:in `send' ./lib/sup/mode.rb:51:in `handle_input' ./lib/sup/buffer.rb:267:in `handle_input' bin/sup:245 * Now that I've fetched big bulk of emails into inbox... I wonder if there is a logical way to archive all threads BUT not starred ones? thanks in advance for any reply ;) -- Yaroslav O.
