Sending bower to background while composing an email #50

Closed vivien closed 4 years ago

vivien commented 5 years ago

bower can be sent to background with e.g. ^Z and retrieved with fg. Same as for most editors. But this doesn't work anymore when using this editor from within bower when composing an email.

It works for me. Going to need some more information I think.

Actually, I can reproduce some kind of problem if I suspend an instance of vim that was called from bower. fg sometimes displays the bower compose screen, pressing ^L redraws the vim screen, and everything is confused.

Should be fixed on master.

Sorry for taking a while to get back on this. It happens to be an issue from my editor Kakoune, not from bower... Good thing you found another issue though!

@vivien: Did you solve the issue? I am having the same problem with vis. Also: wrapping vis in other programs, such as git commit or shell scripts, doesn't cause this issue. I am not entirely sure, why vis behaves differently when called from bower, but being able to suspend it properly would still be nice.
