[comp.emacs] Subprocesses hanging

cef@h.gp.cs.cmu.edu (Charles Fineman) (05/18/88)

On several occasions over the past months I have had problems with
subprocesses hanging in GNU emacs. I get a message saying

  	Pieman process stopped (tty output)

I am assuming that it means that it had some output to flush
but it couln't as there was no reciver on the other end of his
output. But this makes no sense because GNU emacs is supposed
to be holding the other end of that socket and dumping the
output into the processes buffer. BTW this has happened with
shells also so it dosn't seem to be a problem with the "pieman"
program in particular.

Has anyone else encountered this behavior? I am running version 18.49.
