Things xonsh does that makes it hard for me to use. Maybe some of them are bugs? Either way, all need to be fixed or worked around.
Readline mode:
- Up arrow doesn't go to the previous command when you have some text typed already.
Prompt-toolkit mode:
-
Left arrow at the beginning of a line doesn't go back a line.
-
The prompt colors are wrong. xonsh/xonsh#726. Not a huge issue but it would be good to have fixed.
-
Tab completing a path in the beginning of a command doesn't work.
Both modes:
-
My emacsclient/e aliases don't work. No idea why. If I type the command directly it works.
-
The iTerm2 terminal title shows (python3.5). I believe this can only be fixed upstream by iTerm2. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/iterm2-discuss/bG6b1CEoWn0/ndyaGnUtBwAJ
-
iTerm2 shell integration. I'll need to implement this. xonsh/xonsh#374
-
The colors can be unreadable (especially environment variable blue)
-
Fuzzy cd (bash cdspell)
-
Warning on > clobber (bash noclobber)
-
Custom completion (like completion for cdd)
-
Aliases execute my bash profile
