dape-repl with debugpy doesn't run dape commands?
Thanks for dape! This is the first emacs debugger I have ever used that actually worked out of the box without a bunch of configuration (although I did already know that I needed to pip install debugpy before I tried it). Kudos!
As I would expect, the dape repl runs Python code if I'm debugging a Python process.
However, it begins with the message:
* Welcome to Dape REPL! *
Available Dape commands: debug, next, continue, pause, step, out, up, down, threads, stack, modules, sources, breakpoints, scope, watch, restart, kill, disconnect, quit
Empty input will rerun last command.
with prefixes of the commands highlighted.
I would therefore expect that if I type, e.g. s and hit enter, dape would single-step, but instead, I get
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 's' is not defined. Did you mean: 'os'?
Hey and thank you for your bug report!
This is what I would expect as well, dape is looking for an exact match so if there is any space before or after it sends it through to the adapter. This behavior is more or less a hack to be able to evaluate stuff that collides with the "Dape commands".
If you M-x trace-function dape--repl-input-sender all calls to dape--repl-input-sender which handles all that stuff should be displayed in *trace-output* buffer.
It should be something like the following after s + enter in the repl?
======================================================================
1 -> (dape--repl-input-sender #<process dape repl> #("s" 0 1 (fontified t)))
1 <- dape--repl-input-sender: t
What is the contents of that buffer on your machine?
And also do you have any special customization to comint-mode?
Run M-x untrace-all to get rid of the tracing.
Thanks for your response!
I followed your directions and I suspected it might be something like this:
======================================================================
1 -> (dape--repl-input-sender #<process dape-repl> #("s\n" 0 1 (fontified t) 1 2 (fontified t)))
1 <- dape--repl-input-sender: nil
Note the \n. The only customization I could find in my personal setup related to comint was (global-set-key (kbd "C-M-/") 'comint-dynamic-complete-filename) but I doubt very much that has anything to do with this. I do have some packages installed; here's a full list if it helps:

My personal suggestion here would be to add some kind of dape-command prefix, like "!", something that would be a syntax error in normal Python, which would avoid collision with things like a variable named s existing in a relevant scope.
(Also I really want a buffer I can put the focus on that would allow these commands to be single keys by themselves, so I can hit s s s s s to single-step a function rather than putting an enter between each one :)
I assume that the above commit solved your issue feel free to reopen if it didn't.
If you want to use s s activate repeat-mode then C-x C-a s s s ...
