.SH NAME
aepromptcmd \- change prompt color by change state
.XX "aepromptcmd(1)" "change prompt color by change state"
.SH SYNOPSIS
PROMPT_COMMAND="aepromptcmd"
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fIbash\fP(1) shell has an interesting property: If the
PROMPT_COMMAND vaiable is set, the value is executed as a command prior
to issuing each primary prompt. (Actually, it can be a seties of
semicolon separated commands.)
.PP
In order to change the text back to normal, the PS1 variable needs to
have "\e33[0m" somewhere near the end, otherwise things can get a little
difficult to read. If you are using \fIbash\fP(1), you need to let it
know these are unprintable (like this: "\e[\e33[0m\e]") or it messes up
command line editing.
.PP
The \fI\*(n)\fP command is used to set the color of the prompt, based on
the state of the current change.
This is an idea taken from Kent Beck's \fITest Driven Development\fP book.
If the change is in the \fIbeing developed\fP or \fIbeing integrated\fP
state and it needs to be built, the prompt is red; if it is built but it
needs to be tested, the prompt is magenta, otherwise it is green.
.SH Example
Here is a short script you can put in your \f[CW].bashrc\fP file to turn
on prompt coloring:
.RS
if [ "$PS1" ]
then
case "$PROMPT_COMMAND" in
"" )
PROMPT_COMMAND="aepromptcmd"
PS1="$PS1^[[0m"
;;
*aepromptcmd*)
;;
*)
PROMPT_COMMAND="$PROMPT_COMMAND;aepromptcmd"
PS1="$PS1\e[\e33[0m\e]"
;;
esac
export PROMPT_COMMAND
export PS1
fi
.RE
Note that this usually leaves your prompt default (black) when you are
not somewhere inside a development directory.
.SS Limitations
The \fIaepromptcmd\fP command uses the ANSI color escape sequences.
It really should to use the \fItigetstr\fP(3) function from
\fIterminfo\fP(3) to do this in a terminal independent way.
Code contributions welcome.

\fB-Project\fP \fIname\fP
This option may be used to select the project of interest.
When no
.B -Project
option is specified,
the
.I AEGIS_PROJECT
environment variable is consulted.
If that does not exist,
the user's
.I $HOME/.aegisrc
file is examined for a default project field (see
.IR aeuconf (5)
for more information).
If that does not exist,
when the user is only working on changes within a single project,
the project name defaults to that project.
Otherwise,
it is an error.

.PP
All options may be abbreviated;
the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters,
all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional.
You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.
.PP
All options are case insensitive,
you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of both,
case is not important.
.PP
For example:
the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are
all interpreted to mean the \fB-Project\fP option.
The argument "-prj" will not be understood,
because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.
.PP
Options and other command line arguments may be
mixed arbitrarily on the command line,
after the function selectors.

.PP
The GNU long option names are understood.
Since all option names for
.I \*(n)
are long,
this means ignoring the extra leading '-'.
The "\fB--\fIoption\fB=\fIvalue\fR" convention is also understood.
