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.
Unless you set comint-use-prompt-regexp (formerly
comint-use-prompt-regexp-instead-of-fields) to t, the value of
shell-prompt-pattern will not matter very much. It looks like part of
the echoed input is considered part of the prompt. The prompt
read-only region includes the prompt and the newline before it.
It is really difficult for me to look into this, because I can not
duplicate the problem. Trying to use idlwave-shell-mode (assuming
that is what we are talking about) I got:
apply: Searching for program: no such file or directory, idl
