29 ;; This file defines a general command-interpreter-in-a-buffer package
30 ;; (comint mode). The idea is that you can build specific process-in-a-buffer
31 ;; modes on top of comint mode -- e.g., Lisp, shell, scheme, T, soar, ....
32 ;; This way, all these specific packages share a common base functionality,
33 ;; and a common set of bindings, which makes them easier to use (and
34 ;; saves code, implementation time, etc., etc.).
36 ;; Several packages are already defined using comint mode:
37 ;; - shell.el defines a shell-in-a-buffer mode.
38 ;; - cmulisp.el defines a simple lisp-in-a-buffer mode.
40 ;; - The file cmuscheme.el defines a scheme-in-a-buffer mode.
41 ;; - The file tea.el tunes scheme and inferior-scheme modes for T.
42 ;; - The file soar.el tunes Lisp and inferior-lisp modes for Soar.
43 ;; - cmutex.el defines TeX and LaTeX modes that invoke TeX, LaTeX, BibTeX,
44 ;; previewers, and printers from within Emacs.
45 ;; - background.el allows csh-like job control inside Emacs.
46 ;; It is pretty easy to make new derived modes for other processes.
48 ;; For documentation on the functionality provided by Comint mode, and
49 ;; the hooks available for customising it, see the comments below.
50 ;; For further information on the standard derived modes (shell,
51 ;; inferior-lisp, inferior-scheme, ...), see the relevant source files.
53 ;; For hints on converting existing process modes (e.g., tex-mode,
54 ;; background, dbx, gdb, kermit, prolog, telnet) to use comint-mode
55 ;; instead of shell-mode, see the notes at the end of this file.

589 Return not at end copies rest of line to end and sends it.
590 Setting variable `comint-eol-on-send' means jump to the end of the line
591 before submitting new input.
593 This mode is customized to create major modes such as Inferior Lisp
594 mode, Shell mode, etc. This can be done by setting the hooks
595 `comint-input-filter-functions', `comint-input-filter', `comint-input-sender'
596 and `comint-get-old-input' to appropriate functions, and the variable
597 `comint-prompt-regexp' to the appropriate regular expression.
599 An input history is maintained of size `comint-input-ring-size', and
600 can be accessed with the commands \\[comint-next-input], \\[comint-previous-input], and \\[comint-dynamic-list-input-ring].
601 Input ring history expansion can be achieved with the commands
602 \\[comint-replace-by-expanded-history] or \\[comint-magic-space].
603 Input ring expansion is controlled by the variable `comint-input-autoexpand',
604 and addition is controlled by the variable `comint-input-ignoredups'.
606 Commands with no default key bindings include `send-invisible',
607 `comint-dynamic-complete', `comint-dynamic-list-filename-completions', and
608 `comint-magic-space'.
610 Input to, and output from, the subprocess can cause the window to scroll to
611 the end of the buffer. See variables `comint-output-filter-functions',
612 `comint-preoutput-filter-functions', `comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input',
613 and `comint-move-point-for-output'.

1505 `comint-input-filter-functions' monitors input for \"cd\", \"pushd\", and
1506 \"popd\" commands. When it sees one, it cd's the buffer.
1507 `comint-input-filter' is the default: returns t if the input isn't all white
1510 If the Comint is Lucid Common Lisp,
1511 `comint-get-old-input' snarfs the sexp ending at point.
1512 `comint-input-filter-functions' does nothing.

2474 If the command is given while the cursor is inside a string, *and*
2475 the string is an existing filename, *and* the filename is not a directory,
2476 then the string is taken as default. This allows you to just position
2477 your cursor over a string that's a filename and have it taken as default.
2479 If the command is given in a file buffer whose major mode is in
2480 SOURCE-MODES, then the filename is the default file, and the

3099 ;; This little add-on for comint is intended to make it easy to get
3100 ;; output from currently active comint buffers into another buffer,
3101 ;; or buffers, and then go back to using the comint shell.
3103 ;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
3104 ;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
3105 ;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
3106 ;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
3107 ;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
3108 ;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
3109 ;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
3111 ;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
3112 ;; preoutput filter functions (`comint-preoutput-filter-functions') to use
3113 ;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
3114 ;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
3115 ;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, `comint-prompt-regexp'). When it
3116 ;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
3117 ;; `comint-redirect-hook'.
3119 ;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
3120 ;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
3122 ;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
3123 ;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
3124 ;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
3125 ;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
3126 ;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
3127 ;; this prompt is set correctly.
3129 ;; XXX: This doesn't work so well unless `comint-prompt-regexp' is set;
3130 ;; perhaps it should prompt for a terminating string (with an
3131 ;; appropriate magic default by examining what we think is the prompt)?
3133 ;; Fixme: look for appropriate fields, rather than regexp, if

3484 ;; Comint mode does not provide functionality equivalent to
3485 ;; shell-set-directory-error-hook; it is gone.
3487 ;; comint-last-input-start is provided for modes which want to munge
3488 ;; the buffer after input is sent, perhaps because the inferior
3489 ;; insists on echoing the input. The LAST-INPUT-START variable in
3490 ;; the old shell package was used to implement a history mechanism,
3491 ;; but you should think twice before using comint-last-input-start
3492 ;; for this; the input history ring often does the job better.
3494 ;; If you are implementing some process-in-a-buffer mode, called foo-mode, do
3495 ;; *not* create the comint-mode local variables in your foo-mode function.
3496 ;; This is not modular. Instead, call comint-mode, and let *it* create the
3497 ;; necessary comint-specific local variables. Then create the
3498 ;; foo-mode-specific local variables in foo-mode. Set the buffer's keymap to
