Problems in `set /p` about clink HOT 5 CLOSED

When I run the script in a cmd with clink injected, Tab doesn't even do completion; it just inserts raw TAB characters.

I'll debug and fix both issues.

P.S. This used to work as of v1.4.0, so something has regressed since then.

v1.4.0

• Fixed #370; Tab inside set /p var= mistakenly discards any previous input.

When I run the script in a cmd with clink injected, Tab doesn't even do completion; it just inserts raw TAB characters.

The reason Tab completion isn't working for me is because the control parameter is NULL in the intercepted ReadConsoleW call.

Oh, and that's because I have my CMD shortcuts configured to explicitly pass /f:off which turns off completion. There was a reason I did that, but I forget why. 🤷‍♂️

@boka-boka What version of Clink are you using?
Can you share the full output from clink info?

When I run the test bat script in CMD with Clink v1.6.1 injected, I get the expected results:

This is the output from clink info. Clearly an old version... I'll install the latest one to check my scenario.

After installing latest version (version : 1.6.1.c7c448), it works very well.

Really sorry for this false alarm, and thanks a lot for your work on this great tool.

Oh yeah, that explains it. It was fixed in 1.4.0 a while back.

Thanks for reporting it, and I'm glad it's working now after the update.
