34 ;; This file defines a shell-in-a-buffer package (shell mode) built on
35 ;; top of comint mode. This is actually cmushell with things renamed
36 ;; to replace its counterpart in Emacs 18. cmushell is more
37 ;; featureful, robust, and uniform than the Emacs 18 version.
39 ;; Since this mode is built on top of the general command-interpreter-in-
40 ;; a-buffer mode (comint mode), it shares a common base functionality,
41 ;; and a common set of bindings, with all modes derived from comint mode.
42 ;; This makes these modes easier to use.
44 ;; For documentation on the functionality provided by comint mode, and
45 ;; the hooks available for customising it, see the file comint.el.
46 ;; For further information on shell mode, see the comments below.
48 ;; Needs fixin:
49 ;; When sending text from a source file to a subprocess, the process-mark can
50 ;; move off the window, so you can lose sight of the process interactions.
51 ;; Maybe I should ensure the process mark is in the window when I send
52 ;; text to the process? Switch selectable?

357 the shell. This is useful for entering passwords. Or, add the function
358 `comint-watch-for-password-prompt' to `comint-output-filter-functions'.
360 If you want to make multiple shell buffers, rename the `*shell*' buffer
361 using \\[rename-buffer] or \\[rename-uniquely] and start a new shell.
363 If you want to make shell buffers limited in length, add the function

378 Customization: Entry to this mode runs the hooks on `comint-mode-hook' and
379 `shell-mode-hook' (in that order). Before each input, the hooks on
380 `comint-input-filter-functions' are run. After each shell output, the hooks
381 on `comint-output-filter-functions' are run.
383 Variables `shell-cd-regexp', `shell-chdrive-regexp', `shell-pushd-regexp'
384 and `shell-popd-regexp' are used to match their respective commands,
385 while `shell-pushd-tohome', `shell-pushd-dextract' and `shell-pushd-dunique'
386 control the behavior of the relevant command.
388 Variables `comint-completion-autolist', `comint-completion-addsuffix',
389 `comint-completion-recexact' and `comint-completion-fignore' control the
390 behavior of file name, command name and variable name completion. Variable
391 `shell-completion-execonly' controls the behavior of command name completion.
392 Variable `shell-completion-fignore' is used to initialise the value of
393 `comint-completion-fignore'.
395 Variables `comint-input-ring-file-name' and `comint-input-autoexpand' control
396 the initialisation of the input ring history, and history expansion.
398 Variables `comint-output-filter-functions', a hook, and
399 `comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input' and `comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-output'

529 ;;; This is basically a fragile hack, although it's more accurate than
530 ;;; the version in Emacs 18's shell.el. It has the following failings:
531 ;;; 1. It doesn't know about the cdpath shell variable.
532 ;;; 2. It cannot infallibly deal with command sequences, though it does well
533 ;;; with these and with ignoring commands forked in another shell with ()s.
534 ;;; 3. More generally, any complex command is going to throw it. Otherwise,
535 ;;; you'd have to build an entire shell interpreter in emacs lisp. Failing
536 ;;; that, there's no way to catch shell commands where cd's are buried
537 ;;; inside conditional expressions, aliases, and so forth.
539 ;;; The whole approach is a crock. Shell aliases mess it up. File sourcing
540 ;;; messes it up. You run other processes under the shell; these each have
541 ;;; separate working directories, and some have commands for manipulating
542 ;;; their w.d.'s (e.g., the lcd command in ftp). Some of these programs have
543 ;;; commands that do *not* affect the current w.d. at all, but look like they
544 ;;; do (e.g., the cd command in ftp). In shells that allow you job
545 ;;; control, you can switch between jobs, all having different w.d.'s. So
546 ;;; simply saying %3 can shift your w.d..
548 ;;; The solution is to relax, not stress out about it, and settle for
549 ;;; a hack that works pretty well in typical circumstances. Remember
550 ;;; that a half-assed solution is more in keeping with the spirit of Unix,
551 ;;; anyway. Blech.
553 ;;; One good hack not implemented here for users of programmable shells
554 ;;; is to program up the shell w.d. manipulation commands to output
555 ;;; a coded command sequence to the tty. Something like
556 ;;; ESC | <cwd> |
557 ;;; where <cwd> is the new current working directory. Then trash the
558 ;;; directory tracking machinery currently used in this package, and
559 ;;; replace it with a process filter that watches for and strips out
560 ;;; these messages.
