Well, I'm finally getting around to doing what I promised so long
ago: the first (of many) scripts has been posted to net.sources.
The mods (once you've collected them all) provide:
o Subprocess control within Emacs. ESC-^Z is bound (by newproc.ml)
to a function which suspends your current job. There are hordes
of new functions for this.
o Support for 4.1 MPX files, and 4.1[ac] network/PTYs.
o Support for external processes writing to Emacs, instead of directly
to your terminal.
o Echo keystrokes and echo argument: you can get Emacs to display
key sequences and/or prefix arguments on the minibuf line, either
immediately or after some number of seconds.
o Support for the new directory format in 4.1c.
o Filename completion. Also supports the new 4.1c format.
I can't think of anything else, right now. Oh well, have fun; it's
time for me to get some lunch (if McDonalds isn't serving breakfast...).
