FWIW, Alpine Linux has a nice world file, too. And I am continually impressed by the selection of up to date packages in their Edge repos.

In 2020 I paid a one time fee for a lifetime of Pro. Is that definitely not still an option?

I'm not really recommending it over Arch, but my favorite rolling Debian distro is Siduction.

Haha it's all good, but it sounds like selling the house to avoid cleaning a table.

I searched and found the project. If you're having the same issue described here, it's been known for a few weeks and

will be fixed with the next release.

I don't know SP or how its shortcuts work, but did you check if you already have those shortcuts assigned in plasma's global shortcuts? The easiest way is to assign them to any plasma global shortcut and see if it tells you there's a conflict.

If that's not it, can you trigger those SP actions with an external command? Then you could do it through plasma global shortcuts.

Konsole is my second favorite terminal app. Wezterm may be your holy grail.

También: Siduction (derivada de Debian Sid), Alpine (Edge), Solus, Chimera Linux, OpenMandriva ROME, Gentoo/Funtoo/Exherbo, y otros en la familia de openSUSE (?).

Thanks again for posting your improvements! I will have them!

The idea here, checking for newline characters rather than counting lines, is to prevent it treating one line that is so long it wraps to the next as counting as a multiline input, right? So now I'm looking like

EDIT: lemmy is at least mangling ampersands here. Hard to believe it doesn't have proper code blocks yet...

# -- Run input if single line, otherwise insert newline --
# Key: enter
# Assumes: setopt interactivecomments

.zle_accept-except-multiline () {
  if [[ $BUFFER != *$'\n'* ]] {
    zle accept-line
    return
  } else {
    zle self-insert-unmeta
    if [[ $BUFFER == *$'\n'*$'\n'* ]] {
      local hint="# Use alt+enter to submit this multiline input"
      if [[ $BUFFER != *${hint}* ]] {
        LBUFFER+=$hint
        zle self-insert-unmeta
      }
    }
  }
}
zle -N .zle_accept-except-multiline
bindkey '^M' .zle_accept-except-multiline  # Enter

# -- Run input if multiline, otherwise insert newline --
# Key: alt+enter
# Credit: https://programming.dev/comment/2479198
.zle_accept_only_multiline () {
  if [[ $BUFFER == *$'\n'* ]] {
    zle accept-line
  } else {
    zle self-insert-unmeta
  }
}
zle -N .zle_accept_only_multiline
bindkey '^[^M' .zle_accept_only_multiline  # Enter

For pushing the line/multiline, I combine it with my clear function (ctrl+l):

# -- Refresh prompt, rerunning any hooks --
# Credit: romkatv/z4h
.zle_redraw-prompt () {
  for 1 ( chpwd $chpwd_functions precmd $precmd_functions ) {
    if (( $+functions[$1] ))  $1 &>/dev/null
  }
  zle .reset-prompt
  zle -R
}

# -- Better Screen Clearing --
# Clear line and redraw prompt, restore line at next prompt
# Key: ctrl+l
# Depends: .zle_redraw-prompt
.zle_push-line-and-clear () { zle push-input; zle clear-screen; .zle_redraw-prompt }
zle -N       .zle_push-line-and-clear
bindkey '^L' .zle_push-line-and-clear  # ctrl+l

I started using this, it makes a lot of sense and I like it, thanks!

I can imagine myself forgetting how to accept multiline input with alt+enter, so I added a help message to _zle_ml_enter in the multiline case after the second line. It assumes setopt interactivecomments is already set:

EDIT: note that lemmy mangles the less-than symbol

# -- Run input if single line, otherwise insert newline --
# Key: enter
# Assumes: setopt interactivecomments
# Credit: https://programming.dev/comment/2479198
.zle_accept-except-multiline () {
  if (( BUFFERLINES <= 1 )) {
    zle accept-line
  } else {
    zle self-insert-unmeta
    if (( BUFFERLINES == 2 )) {
      LBUFFER+="# Use alt+enter to submit this multiline input"
      zle self-insert-unmeta
    }
  }
}
zle -N .zle_accept-except-multiline
bindkey '^M' .zle_accept-except-multiline  # Enter

I hope I'm not annoying anyone, but it's ado.

OK, well FWIW in Zsh you can use a keybind to trigger ZLE functions that turn your already-entered lines back into in-progress lines.

The most straightforward built-in function for this is push-line-or-edit:

At the top-level (PS1) prompt, equivalent to push-line. At a secondary (PS2) prompt, move the entire current multiline construct into the editor buffer. The latter is equivalent to push-input followed by get-line.

So let's say you want to trigger this with ctrl+e, all you need is:

bindkey '^e' push-line-or-edit
