Hello,
Is there was a way to search the job.out files when viewing in the tui (Often needed when bug-fixing model developments)?
I like how “low cost” the tui is, so if it’s not possible, this feature would make the tui near perfect (in my opinion).
I know I could just look at the /cylc-run/suite directory, but this would save a bit of time.
There isn’t a way to search logs at present. It would be possible to add search functionality, but it wouldn’t be trivial.
We could, however, offer the ability to open the file in your configured $EDITOR (e.g. vim) from within cylc tui.
Thanks Oliver, I think even the ability to jump over to vim or gedit (in a new tab) would be quite helpful.
We can’t reliably open the external editor in a new terminal tab, but we can switch out Tui for the external editor, then switch it back when the editor exits.
Will hopefully arrive in time for 8.5.0.
That looks really cool!
