Odd prompt behaviour

[pjfichet]

Hello !

When I enter my prompt request manually in my tintin window, it works perfectly. But when I call the exact same line from a script, the prompt is correctly gagged from the scrolling region, but never printed on the split line.
Isn't that odd? I can't figure what I'm doing wrong.

My test usage from a file is simple:

#alias {split} {
  #split;
  #prompt {^prompt %+} {<109>%1<099>};
}

Hi,

You need to escape the %1. Your current %1 is treated as the argument for the #alias, so you need to use %%1 so it's treated as the argument for #prompt:

#alias {split} {
  #split;
  #prompt {^prompt %+} {<109>%%1<099>};
}
