exporting the prompt seems to be too harsh and breaks the shell in Emacs as the PROMPT_COMMAND for xterm (say) overwrites the 'dumb' PROMPT_COMMAND, which now is 'contaminated' with ASCII escape strings.
`path` is decoded already (coming from `db`) and this caused the
following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/user/.autojump/bin/autojump", line 460, in <module>
if not shell_utility(): sys.exit(1)
File "/home/user/.autojump/bin/autojump", line 429, in shell_utility
results = find_matches(db, patterns, max_matches, False)
File "/home/user/.autojump/bin/autojump", line 374, in find_matches
if current_dir == decode(os.path.realpath(path)) :
File "/home/user/.autojump/bin/autojump", line 277, in decode
return text.decode(encoding, errors)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xb4' in
position 52: ordinal not in range(128)
This regression bug was introduced when adding the KEEP_SYMLINKS option. The
current_dir was always set to '.' which would never match any database entries.
Even though the previous version works fine on OS X 10.6.8, it seems to be
causing problems for other Mac users on 10.8.x. Unfortunately I do not have
access to a newer Mac to test on.
The previous test condition would cause errors because even though brew didn't
exist, the directory /share/zsh/site-functions did and it would throw error
messages on non-homebrew systems.
This adds the argparse library [1] as autojump_argparse and imports it
via sys.path mangling in case argparse does not exist (Python 2.6 or
below without argparse installed).
This makes autojump effectively work with Python 2.6 again by default.
I have not verified license compatibility, but given the intention of
the (backport) project this is likely OK (it is licensed under the
Python license).
