Description dnikitin 2016-07-29 20:08:42 UTC

now ideopen always returns "Opening 1 file(s)" even if a file does not exist and cannot be opened. 

bash-4.2$ ideopen file*
Opening 1 file(s) ...
bash-4.2$ 

File does not exist or I should wait for some time? 

Please add some message about failure of opening or that no one file is found.

Suggested patch

I attached a patch for this bug.

Applying this patch questionable, it slows  PROMPT_COMMAND ~ 110 times.
I will try to find a faster way.

There is no easy fix to print a correct number of files to be opened. 
Suggested patch slows speed of the Terminal a lot.

It was decided to leave this message as is.
(btw, IDE really tries to open a file named 'file*' if globbing failed. It just fails to open this file silently.)

Maybe move ideopen from PS1 to other variable, this will allow to apply the fix without performance issues.
