Hi all,
I recently upgraded xmonad / XMonadContrib, and now I have performance problem using ShellPrompt... ( response time whe typing)
ShellPrompt went over some refactoring recently, and knowing the version you are using (darcs, pulled when?) is important.
Basically, there are 2 versions: the first one uses Readline - non too bad. I tried using bash compgen (also to remove the readline requirement), but with a vary bad performance.
So I switched to the Haskell function getDirectoryContent, which is better in my system. My tests show that getDirectoryContet has a performance similar to readline, without the extra library requirement.
My up-to-date repo appears still to be using bash compgen. Is there a patch missing somewhere? /J
