1 # A generic class to build line-oriented command interpreters
3 # Interpreters constructed with this class obey the following conventions:
5 # 1. End of file on input is processed as the command 'EOF'.
6 # 2. A command is parsed out of each line by collecting the prefix composed
7 # of characters in the identchars member.
8 # 3. A command `foo' is dispatched to a method 'do_foo()'; the do_ method
9 # is passed a single argument consisting of the remainder of the line.
10 # 4. Typing an empty line repeats the last command. (Actually, it calls the
11 # method `emptyline', which may be overridden in a subclass.)
12 # 5. There is a predefined `help' method. Given an argument `topic', it
13 # calls the command `help_topic'. With no arguments, it lists all topics
14 # with defined help_ functions, broken into up to three topics; documented
15 # commands, miscellaneous help topics, and undocumented commands.
16 # 6. The command '?' is a synonym for `help'. The command '!' is a synonym
17 # for `shell', if a do_shell method exists.
19 # The `default' method may be overridden to intercept commands for which there
20 # is no do_ method.
22 # The data member `self.ruler' sets the character used to draw separator lines
23 # in the help messages. If empty, no ruler line is drawn. It defaults to "=".
25 # If the value of `self.intro' is nonempty when the cmdloop method is called,
26 # it is printed out on interpreter startup. This value may be overridden
27 # via an optional argument to the cmdloop() method.
29 # The data members `self.doc_header', `self.misc_header', and
30 # `self.undoc_header' set the headers used for the help function's
31 # listings of documented functions, miscellaneous topics, and undocumented
32 # functions respectively.
34 # These interpreters use raw_input; thus, if the readline module is loaded,
35 # they automatically support Emacs-like command history and editing features.
