Comment: missing variable in read statement

This is sample code to allow more intuitive usage of Function keys in bash.
It abstracts the escape sequence messiness for these keys and as such allows for a more portable/intuitive solutions.

Ok so mostly the initial response to this is "why bother?", the answer is because it is more robust than simply using read. The main problem with directly calling read is that the escape sequences use digits and letter so if you use something like the following it can lead to unexpected consequences/behavior.
Line 12: Line 9:
#!/bin/bash
#set -o errexit
#set -o errtrace
set -o nounset
  while read -sN1 ; do
    echo "${REPLY}";
    case "${REPLY}" in
      A) echo 'either "A" or up arrow ';;
      B) echo 'either "B" or down arrow ';;
      1) echo 'either "1" or any function key ';;
    esac
  done
}}}
Its even worse that that because an escape sequence can look something like this.
{{{
  $'\e[1;12A'
}}}
So you can just not use the contentious keys "0123456789ABCDEPQRSZ;?+", but no guarantee that thats a full list.

A better solution is to use something like this where we delineate each key with a Enter/Return key press.
{{{
  while read ; do
    echo "${REPLY}";
    case "${REPLY}" in
      A) echo 'Is A';;
      1) echo 'Is 1';;
    esac
  done
}}}

However that makes for a somewhat stilted interface.

now we could also do something like this
{{{
  function ReadKey {
    # Wait for first char
    if read -sN1 _REPLY; then
      # Read rest of chars
      while read -sN1 -t 0.001 REPLY; do
        _REPLY+="${REPLY}"
      done
    fi
  }
  while ReadKey ; do
    echo "${_REPLY}";
    case "${_REPLY}" in
      A) echo 'Is A';;
      1) echo 'Is 1';;
      $'\e[A') echo 'Up Arrow'
      $'\e[1;2A') echo 'Shift + Up Arrow'
      $'\e[4~' | $'\e[4z') echo 'F4'
      $'\e[4;2~' | $'\e[4;2z') echo 'Shift + F4'
    esac
  done
}}}
Now the above example is ok if you don't want to require the user to press the enter key and you don't want to use function keys however using function keys in the above manner is a mess there can ba something like 4 different escape sequences for a key depending on the emulation mode. Furthermore it is difficult to ignore modifier keys. Technically a escape sequence for an up arrow ignoring the modifier keys requires a regex like this
{{{
    # Requires extglob
    case "${_REPLY}" in
      $'\e['?(+([0-9);+([0-9))A) echo 'Up Arrow Ignoring Modifiers'
    esac
}}}
Though mostly this should do
{{{
    # no extglob
    case "${_REPLY}" in
      $'\e[A' | $'\e[1;'[2-9]A) echo 'Up Arrow Ignoring Modifiers'
    esac
}}}


The following example builds on the last example and allows a more intuitive usage of Function keys in bash.
It abstracts the escape sequence messiness for these keys and as such allows for a more portable/intuitive solutions. As it understands about escape sequences it also protects the caller from the problems with the first example above. Furthermore as no sub shells are required it is quicker than calling an external program or function to read the key.

The main problem with the previous example is that like most such bash implementations it requires a break between function keys. Now in a user interface this is not a problem because there is always a minimal delay between key presses. However on slower systems it could happen that 2 key preses get evaluated together, the only downside is that in those rare cases the keys get ignored. But this also means that it can't be used with buffered function key sequences.

=== vt100 Parser Example ===
A more complex solution using a full vt100 parser. This following solution fixes the problems of the previous example as it doesn't blindly gobble up the entire buffer but instead intelligently reads the key sequence. The downside is that it is quiet a bit more complex, and takes about 0.005s per function key instead of 0.001 sec.

Reading Function Keys in bash

Ok so mostly the initial response to this is "why bother?", the answer is because it is more robust than simply using read. The main problem with directly calling read is that the escape sequences use digits and letter so if you use something like the following it can lead to unexpected consequences/behavior.

  while read -sN1 ; do
    echo "${REPLY}";
    case "${REPLY}" in
      A) echo 'either "A" or up arrow ';;
      B) echo 'either "B" or down arrow ';;
      1) echo 'either "1" or any function key ';;
    esac
  done

Its even worse that that because an escape sequence can look something like this.

  $'\e[1;12A'

So you can just not use the contentious keys "0123456789ABCDEPQRSZ;?+", but no guarantee that thats a full list.

A better solution is to use something like this where we delineate each key with a Enter/Return key press.

  while read  ; do
    echo "${REPLY}";
    case "${REPLY}" in
      A) echo 'Is A';;
      1) echo 'Is 1';;
    esac
  done

However that makes for a somewhat stilted interface.

now we could also do something like this

  function ReadKey {
    # Wait for first char
    if read -sN1 _REPLY; then
      # Read rest of chars
      while read -sN1 -t 0.001 REPLY; do
        _REPLY+="${REPLY}"
      done
    fi
  }
  while ReadKey  ; do
    echo "${_REPLY}";
    case "${_REPLY}" in
      A) echo 'Is A';;
      1) echo 'Is 1';;
      $'\e[A') echo 'Up Arrow'
      $'\e[1;2A') echo 'Shift + Up Arrow'
      $'\e[4~' | $'\e[4z') echo 'F4'
      $'\e[4;2~' | $'\e[4;2z') echo 'Shift + F4'
    esac
  done

Now the above example is ok if you don't want to require the user to press the enter key and you don't want to use function keys however using function keys in the above manner is a mess there can ba something like 4 different escape sequences for a key depending on the emulation mode. Furthermore it is difficult to ignore modifier keys. Technically a escape sequence for an up arrow ignoring the modifier keys requires a regex like this

    # Requires extglob
    case "${_REPLY}" in
      $'\e['?(+([0-9);+([0-9))A) echo 'Up Arrow Ignoring Modifiers'
    esac

Though mostly this should do

    # no extglob
    case "${_REPLY}" in
      $'\e[A' | $'\e[1;'[2-9]A) echo 'Up Arrow Ignoring Modifiers'
    esac

The following example builds on the last example and allows a more intuitive usage of Function keys in bash. It abstracts the escape sequence messiness for these keys and as such allows for a more portable/intuitive solutions. As it understands about escape sequences it also protects the caller from the problems with the first example above. Furthermore as no sub shells are required it is quicker than calling an external program or function to read the key.

#set -o errexit
#set -o errtrace
set -o nounset


  if [ "${S8C1T:-0}" != "1" ] ; then
    declare -gr SS3=$'\eO'      # Single Shift Select of G3 Character Set ( SS3 is 0x8f): affects next character only
    declare -gr CSI=$'\e['      # Control Sequence Introducer ( CSI is 0x9b)
  else
    declare -gr SS3=$'\x8f'     # Single Shift Select of G3 Character Set ( SS3 is 0x8f): affects next character only
    declare -gr CSI=$'\x9b'     # Control Sequence Introducer ( CSI is 0x9b)

Likewise, C b will be UTF-8 encoded, to reduce confusion with wheel mouse events.

    HandleKey

The main problem with the previous example is that like most such bash implementations it requires a break between function keys. Now in a user interface this is not a problem because there is always a minimal delay between key presses. However on slower systems it could happen that 2 key preses get evaluated together, the only downside is that in those rare cases the keys get ignored. But this also means that it can't be used with buffered function key sequences.

vt100 Parser Example

A more complex solution using a full vt100 parser. This following solution fixes the problems of the previous example as it doesn't blindly gobble up the entire buffer but instead intelligently reads the key sequence. The downside is that it is quiet a bit more complex, and takes about 0.005s per function key instead of 0.001 sec.
