Not to strike you down twice,
No worries, the mud's fine.
but I'm not sure how .screenrc's syntax would be better served
with s-expressions. To my knowledge it's completely line
oriented without any sort of section delimiting.
Here's a fragment from my ~/.screenrc:
# special xterm hardstatus: use the window title.
termcap xterm 'hs:ts=\E]2;:fs=\007:ds=\E]0;Screen\007'
terminfo xterm 'hs:ts=\E]2;:fs=\007:ds=\E]0;Screen\007'
It shows a comment and two directives of the form:
CATEGORY KEY VALUE
Since KEY and VALUE are identical, it would be nice to be able to
express that using some kind of ‘for-each’ or ‘map’ expression.
Furthermore, IWBN to compose the string from meaningful bits
instead of having to cart around (for 15 years, no less :-) such
grot...
(define (both-termcap-and-terminfo name value)
;; do ‘termcap NAME VALUE’
;; do ‘terminfo NAME VALUE’
)
(both-termcap-and-terminfo
'xterm (string-join (map format-attribute
'(hs
(ts escape "]2;")
(fs bell)
(ds escape "]0;Screen" bell)))
":"))
or something like that.
