Package: gnuplot-mode
Version: 1:0.6.0-1
Severity: normal
Using gnuplot-mode causes shell buffers and sql buffers (perhaps the
commonality is that they both use comint?) to act strangely in the
following way: If you type a command that takes a long time, emacs
seems to hang while waiting for output from the process.
To reproduce:
emacs --no-init-file -l gnuplot
M-x shell
sleep 10 [enter]
Note that you can now interact with emacs while sleep is sleeping.
exit # exit the shell process
C-x b *scratch*
M-x gnuplot-mode
M-x shell
sleep 10 [enter]
Note that the mouse cursor changes to an hourglass, the shell cursor
stops blinking, and you can't interact with emacs until the sleep
exits.
Workaround:
While emacs is waiting for the command to complete, you can type C-g
to get emacs' attention again without any apparently-ill effects.

Hello,
Apparently, gnuplot-mode does not mess up with other comint tasks. I
suspect it was a bug in a comint that got fixed...
In any case, the bug does not occur anymore.
Cheers,
Vincent
