Hi, I have the following problem. I have a desk jet attached to my terminal. I have written a small hack that will cat a file into my terminal memory. The printer reads the terminal memory and prints the file. This runs fine from the shell. But if were to run the same hack form inside gnu-emacs, say like shell- command-on-region, it freaks out. My immediate guess is that, quite obviously, Gnu-emacs is changing my terminal memory settings. If any of you have any ideas on this problem, please share them on the net with me. Also another less important problem with Gnu. Let us say I set a shell variable x = /usr/include. Within emacs the following works .. "M-x Find-File $x/curses.h" BUT if I try to get a completion list at "M-x Find-file $x/<space>" it clears the mini-buffer and shows "M-x Find-File /" on the mini-buffer. Does this mean that I cannot use the file-name-completion feature on shell variables ? -- pratap.
