Re: bug#60428: 29.0.60; ERC 5.4.1: Fix default-port regression in erc-select-read-args

v2. Respect `erc-prompt-for-password'. Remove `run-at-time' hack from
regression fix.

I've forsaken the first part out of an abundance of caution. So this now
just prints a warning and proceeds with a non-TLS connection. If anyone
finds that unsatisfactory, please say something.

IOW, the de facto goal here is to make interactive `erc' a "universal"
entry point for both plain and TLS connections.

Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Fix default-port regression in erc-select-read-args

* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc--warn-unencrypted): New function, likely
temporary, to warn new users connecting interactively to the default
server, "irc.libara.chat", via the default non-TLS port, 6667.
(erc-select-read-args): Remove stray code from incomplete feature
introduced by bug#56514.  Ensure connecting always works with default
port, which is non-TLS.  Respect `erc-prompt-for-password' when user
pastes URL containing password component into "server" prompt.  Maybe
add `erc--warn-unencrypted' as one-off hook for impending connection.
* test/lisp/erc/erc-tests.el (erc-select-read-args): Always expect
password prompt and sometimes a non-TLS port when `erc' called
interactively.  (Bug#60428.)

0002-5.6-Be-smarter-about-switching-to-TLS-from-M-x-erc.patch (text/x-patch, 10.7 KB)
From 7a8659ed2132858e5c52cf09c9050cc00463607f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] [5.6] Be smarter about switching to TLS from M-x erc

* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc--warn-unencrypted): Remove newly unused
internal function.
(erc-select-read-args): Offer to use TLS when user runs M-x erc and
opts for default server and port or provides the well-known IANA TLS
port or enters an ircs:// URL at the server prompt.  For the last two,
do this immediately instead of calling `erc-tls' interactively and
imposing a review of just-chosen values.  Also remove error warnings
and ensure `erc-tls' still works by setting
`erc-server-connect-function' to `erc-open-tls-stream' when
appropriate.  Include the word "URL" in server prompt.
(erc, erc-tls): Add internal keyword arguments for interactive use,
but don't make them colon-prefixed, i.e., `keywordp'.
* test/lisp/erc/erc-tests.el (erc-select-read-args): Modify return
values to expect additional `connect-function' keyword argument.
(Bug#60428.)

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] [5.6] Add display option for interactive ERC invocations

* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-buffer-display, erc-receive-query-display):
Add aliases for `erc-join-buffer' and `erc-auto-query'.
(erc-interactive-display): Add new option to control display of server
buffers during interactive entry-point invocations.
(erc-select-read-args): Pass `erc-interactive-display' to entry
points.
(erc, erc-tls): Add interactive-only to control initial buffer
display.
* test/lisp/erc/erc-tests.el (erc-select-read-args): Expect
buffer-display values from `erc-interactive-display'.  (Bug#60428.)

0004-5.6-Optionally-prompt-for-more-ERC-entry-point-param.patch (text/x-patch, 4.7 KB)
From 448686bf96105833cd3e3ee319118c1672d95ca0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: "F. Jason Park" <[email protected]>
Date: Thu, 29 Dec 2022 06:43:19 -0800
Subject: [PATCH 4/4] [5.6] Optionally prompt for more ERC entry-point params

* doc/misc/erc.texi: Update statement about availability of user param
when entry points called interactively.
* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-select-read-args): Allow optionally calling
entry points with a prefix arg to access params `user' and
`:full-name'.
(erc-tls): Update doc string.
* test/lisp/erc/erc-tests.el (erc-select-read-args): Add test for
extra args.  (Bug#60428.)
