I maintain the Emacs programming mode IDLWAVE, and have previously hacked up a comint read-only prompt with an advice to snapshot-last- prompt.
I just compiled a CVS Emacs v22, and was pleased to find that there is a new comint- prompt-read-only variable. However, when I enable that variable, I get the following non-desired behavior: 1. At each prompt, I am warned "Text is read-only". 2. All my input is echoed back to me (I use process-echoes). I thought my prompt pattern could be at fault; it contains a \r character (which IDL throws in at odd intervals). I changed it to something simple, and get the same behavior. I noticed that it works fine in simple Shell mode, so I must have something mis-configured. Any thoughts?
