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

159 This variable is only used if the variable

162 Good choices:
173 "If non-nil, the comint prompt is read only.
174 The read only region includes the newline before the prompt.
175 This does not affect existing prompts.
176 Certain derived modes may override this option.
178 If you set this option to t, then the safe way to temporarily
179 override the read-only-ness of comint prompts is to call
180 `comint-kill-whole-line' or `comint-kill-region' with no
181 narrowing in effect. This way you will be certain that none of
182 the remaining prompts will be accidentally messed up. You may
183 wish to put something like the following in your `.emacs' file:

1494 If `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is nil, then

1499 regexp `comint-prompt-regexp' removed.
1502 `comint-input-filter' is the default: returns t if the input isn't all white
1503 space.
1505 If the Comint is Lucid Common Lisp,
1506 `comint-get-old-input' snarfs the sexp ending at point.
1507 `comint-input-filter-functions' does nothing.
1508 `comint-input-filter' returns nil if the input matches input-filter-regexp,

3133 ;; This little add-on for comint is intended to make it easy to get
3134 ;; output from currently active comint buffers into another buffer,
3135 ;; or buffers, and then go back to using the comint shell.
3136 ;;
3137 ;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
3138 ;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
3139 ;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
3140 ;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
3141 ;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
3142 ;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
3143 ;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
3144 ;;
3145 ;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
3146 ;; preoutput filter functions (`comint-preoutput-filter-functions') to use
3147 ;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
3148 ;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
3149 ;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, `comint-prompt-regexp'). When it
3150 ;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
3151 ;; `comint-redirect-hook'.
3152 ;;
3153 ;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
3154 ;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
3155 ;;
3156 ;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
3157 ;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
3158 ;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
3159 ;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
3160 ;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
3161 ;; this prompt is set correctly.
3162 ;;
3163 ;; XXX: This doesn't work so well unless `comint-prompt-regexp' is set;
3164 ;; perhaps it should prompt for a terminating string (with an
3165 ;; appropriate magic default by examining what we think is the prompt)?
3166 ;;
3167 ;; Fixme: look for appropriate fields, rather than regexp, if
3168 ;; `comint-use-prompt-regexp' is true.

3522 ;; the buffer after input is sent, perhaps because the inferior
3523 ;; insists on echoing the input. The LAST-INPUT-START variable in
3524 ;; the old shell package was used to implement a history mechanism,
3525 ;; but you should think twice before using comint-last-input-start
3526 ;; for this; the input history ring often does the job better.
3527 ;;
3528 ;; If you are implementing some process-in-a-buffer mode, called foo-mode, do
3529 ;; *not* create the comint-mode local variables in your foo-mode function.
3530 ;; This is not modular. Instead, call comint-mode, and let *it* create the
