Most of the files are empty and need to be copied or rewritten from the
old docs. Font patching docs have been removed entirely and will be
moved to the powerline-fontpatcher repo.
Ref #769
Note: this shell script is still faster then client/powerline.py. `time` reports
0.00, 0.01, 0.02÷0.03 for powerline, powerline.sh and powerline.py
respectively (run with `./client/powerline* tmux right`).
Note: does not work in busybox as env there does not support -0 argument.
Requires sed, id (for dash as $UID is not available there), env, printf
and socat. Is not currently handled by setup.py.
Minor changes have been applied:
- Removed copyright info and GPL 3 license since Powerline is MIT (needs
confirmation from kovidgoyal before merge)
- The `powerline-client` script is renamed to `powerline`, and calls the
daemon or `powerline-render` (the previous `powerline`) to render
a statusline
- Minor coding style corrections to match the rest of the project
- Python 3 support is removed for now due to setuptools failing with
binary scripts
Todo:
- Automatically attempt to launch powerline-daemon the first time
powerline is run if the daemon isn't already running?
- pip install -e fails with binary files (it appears that pip recodes
the powerline binary to ASCII, the compiled powerline script must be
copied manually to ~/.local/bin after pip install -e has been run)
Note: by default this segment is disabled. Until #923 it may only be enabled by
copying the whole file and changing "enabled" to "true". After #923 it may be
enabled by having `~/.config/powerline/themes/vim/default.json` with the
following contents:
{
"segment_data": {
"trailing_whitespace": {
"display": true
}
}
}
Fixes#388
Used python version is controlled by `g:powerline_pycmd`. User configuration now
has top priority: if `g:powerline_pyeval` is set powerline will not try to use
`pyeval()` emulation in old Vim versions.
Closes#937 as WONTFIX
