addcol-expr adds empty column in interactive batch mode

[tdussa]

Small description

After replaying a command log with vd -i -b -p <logfile.vdj>, addcol-expr adds an empty column instead of asking for a Python expression to use.

Data to reproduce

This .vdj file does the trick:

#!vd -p

{"sheet": null, "col": null, "row": null, "longname": "open-file", "input": ".", "keystrokes": "o", "comment": null, "replayable": true}

Steps to reproduce

Replay the above .vdj file with vd -i -b -p <file.vdj>, then press = to add a new Python-expression column.

Expected result

Querying the user for a Python expression, then adding a new column based on that expression.

Actual result with screenshot

Just an empty new column.
