Hi Bernard, I can't remember the last time that I saw this problem. I think that this ticket should be marked as fixed and closed. Another ticket can be opened if this problem ever raises its ugly head again. Cheers, Chris.

Hi Chris, are you using the new Alpha 9.2.3 ?
-
Hi Bernard, The % character has certainly been there on occasion, as does the notion of automatic line breaking (which I do have turned on). That said, it is one of those things that was infrequent and not something that I was ever thinking about until it started happening, whereupon it was a bugger to get rid of. Anyway, what you describe has that ring of familiarity to it. I would be happy if my bug was marked as a duplicate of the earlier ones and, if it persists after the next upgrade, it can...
-
Hi Chris, Bugs #246 and #249 have been explicitly fixed. I don't know if this is the same problem as the one you encounter but here are the circumstances that triggered the apparent freeze: it occurred potentially in any mode provided the current document had Automatic Line Breaking turned on and there was an escaped comment character in the current line. For instance, in TeX mode (where the comment symbol is %), a line like Optimus pretosius corrumperet ossifragi \% catelli... triggered the freeze...
-
That previous post should have said TeX mode not text. This, I believe ,is just a repeat of Bug #249, which I notice that you have just closed. Has something happened for it to be resolved? It continues to happen for me, although I am still yet to find the cause. That said, it is a tenacious problem once it occurs. It will continually happen at a particular point in the text, no obvious pattern as to which point, although always towards where a line break should ordinarily occur. Once it happens...
-
Further to this, I am mostly in text mode and the key combination cmd-I does seem to induce the problem.

I don't see how << a recent version of Alpha had taken back Command-Option-D from the Dock >> because the bindings that are hijacked by the System do not even reach the application. The only possibility there, is that you defined something different for Hiding/Showing the Dock in the System preferences. Nevermind, I have now defined ctrl-opt-cmd-D as the default in Alpha for the Uncomment Line command. The Embrace thing seems to be solved now as you explained here. So I'm resolving this Ticket as...

Hi Bernard, Thank you for your quick response. I forgot to mention that I’m using Alpha 9.2.3 on Catalina (10.15.7). I’m also running other computers with Mojave (10.14.6) and El Capitan (10.11.6), but nothing later. I have not yet ventured into Big Sur, so I can’t speak to any shortcuts it has hijacked. While I was surprised to find that a recent version of Alpha had taken back Command-Option-D from the Dock, I don’t need you to make any change there. I have already achieved the solution I need...
-
Hi Bernard, Thank you very much for explaining this to me. For what it’s worth, I was looking to restore the saved patters from the old machine. I did not dare to hope that the transient recent patterns might be accessible. That is quite nice. As an added bonus, overwriting Alpha’s preferences on the Catalina machine with the preference folder from the El Capitan machine has solved my Embrace problem (Ticket #253). Thank you for suggesting this. Best, John On May 31, 2021, at 11:00 AM, Bernard Desgraupes...
-
Hi John, I'm not sure which patterns you have in mind. Do you mean just the last used patterns or do you mean saved patterns that would be listed at the bottom of the Patterns popup in the Find dialog. The former are stored in a global variable called recentSearches, the latter are stored in a global array called searchPattern. Both variables are found respectively in the files defs.tcl or arrdefs.tcl located in Alpha's Preferences folder (by default ~/Library/Preferences/Alpha-v9). Anyway, what...
-
Hi John, concerning the Uncomment Line binding I can easily change it by default to ctrl-D. Is it the preferred binding for this ? Concerning Embrace, I must have missed something because it works perfectly well for me (but I do not have a recent version of OSX because my laptop was stolen and I'm currently working with an older machine with High Sierra). Has ctrl-B been hijacked by Big Sur ? Note that the Embrace package allows you to choose something different via the Embrace-trigger preference...

Fischlin Andreas posted a comment on ticket #252
Thanks a lot Bernard (merci beaucoup). It works like a charm, I just use Cmd^T (all other T related shortcuts are already in use by many other processes). Works nicely as the new Cmd^T ;-) BTW, yes, as far back as I can remember (many, many years of R use with Alpha) Cmd^T has sourced the R script. But I have to admit, I do not remember when that changed, as I have not used R since several months now.

Hi Chris, thanks for reporting this. I would need something reproducible or more details about the circumstances. I have reviewed the attached file Problem Report.txt but my skills are insufficient to understand what is going on. Let's keep this ticket open until we know more...

Dear Bernard, Perhaps one more thing on this: As I said initially, this may also be the result from changes in R and it could well be that Alpha’s S+/R mode is not the reason for the change in behavior.

I'm not sure what you call "previous behavior" since Alpha's R mode has been working like this for several years now. Anyway, what you want to achieve is quite simple to implement. Here is an implementation that you can copy in your file SPrefs.tcl : proc S::sourceCurrentScript {} { global SmodeVars mode set f [win::Current] if {$f eq ""} { return } if {$mode ne "S"} { alertnote "Current file is not in S+/R mode." } if {[winDirty] && [askyesno \ "Do you want to save the file before sending it to...

Ok. Let me explain: I guess you mean the menu command in Alpha's S+/R mode menu 'Source A Script...'. This command is not of much use, as it is cumbersome and you have to go through the file selection dialog and reselecting the file you have currently open in Alpha to accomplish the sourcing. That is about the same as switching to R and there to issue the correspondng menu command "File -> Source File...". True, these commands do what the S+/R mode has been doing previously when issuing Cmd^T, i.e....

Hmm, at this point I get confused. You have a command Source A File if you only want to source the file without seeing all the instructions in the R console. Concerning the slowness, isn't it because your script demands a lot of work on the R side ?
-
Bonjour Bernard, Thanks for any hints on this issue (which is perhaps not a bug ;-) ). Andreas
-
I tried to execute from the Tcl Shell and get the same. No error message, instead of sourcing the entire script is shown in the R console. I attach a screenshot from R's console so you can see the difference. This is a new behavior. In the attached screenshot you see first the end of the processed R script as sent from Alpha, then I have manually written a comment explaining that I would now source the very same file (at the bottom). With the updated R, the speed is again acceptable and I can at...
-
I updated R to R 4.0.5 GUI 1.74 Catalina build (7950). This works better as the script steps are at least not only shown but also executed acceptably fast now. However, the R script file is still not sourced as was previously the case.
-
Hi Andreas, do you get an error message ? If not, could you try to execute the command from the Tcl Shell like this S::processCurrentFile /path/to/the/script.R where you replace /path/to/the/script.R by the full path of your R script. See if you get an error message.

Thanks for reporting this. This is a duplicate of Ticket #246. It has been fixed. This is caused by the \% on this line which creates an infinite loop due to a miscalculation of some position. I should release Alpha 9.2.3 now so that people are not bitten by this anymore. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Dear all, Just to cofirm, I have also observed this behavior many versions ago. However, at the moment I am afraid I cannot tell which version that was I observed this a bit annoying behavior the first time. Andreas ETH Zurich Prof. em.

For what it’s worth, I just did a tiny bit of digging and discovered that another computer running a different operating system and a different version of Alpha is also doing the same thing. This time, it is Alpha 9.0.7 on a 2008 MacBook Pro running OS X El Capitan (10.11.6). On a third computer, a 2014 MacBook Pro running Alpha 9.1.1 and macOS Mojave (10.14.6), I get the same results.

Hi Bernard, It sounds like this is not happening to you. Thank you for confirming this; it gives me hope I can get this resolved. Yes, I am familiar with the Hide Extension checkbox. When I first noticed the problem, I immediately checked to see if that was the problem. However, there is no such checkbox in Alpha’s Save As dialog box. Also, if that were the issue, the extension would still be there, so Alpha would correctly color the text. It does not in this case. I am using Alpha 9.2.2 on a 2019...

Hi John, nothing has changed recently in this area in Alpha, Sometimes the system itself offers a Save As dialog with a checkbox "Hide Extension" checked (based on what, I can't tell). Do you observe this check box (usually in the left bottom corner of the dialog) ? Which version of OS X do you have ?

I confirm that this is a bug. I have experienced it myself recently. This is caused by the percent sign in this line of text which causes an infinite loop when the return key is pressed to insert a new line. I'll look into this. Thanks for reporting and sorry for the inconvenience.
