`:terminal` not working #16

Open osa1 opened 6 years ago

osa1 commented 6 years ago

It seems like :terminal command is not working in vim-qt. I just get a new split that never gets updated. My keypresses etc. don't seem to have any effect (can't close the window, can't use vim-qt anymore after :terminal and have to xkill it).

Would this be something easy to fix? This is mostly to make fzf working under vim-qt.

PS. I've been meaning to get into vim-qt development for some time now (because it's part of my everyday tools) but I have very little C++ experience and no Qt experience. I'd be willing to help if you could point me to the right direction in the source code and Qt API.

Actually any help with that would be welcome. We went through this issue in https://github.com/equalsraf/vim-qt/pull/12. Sadly I forgot to add some code for event handling (patch in https://github.com/equalsraf/vim-qt/pull/12#issuecomment-331090969), that should get you a working :terminal.

If you can grab that and get a PR going that would be great.

Thanks for the pointers. I'll give it a try, but I'll need some help with #13 before that..
