Emacs 18.37 is now available in the usual places on prep. It contains a new version of GDB and the C preprocessor. This is a great deal of change, so there are no diffs yet; it's not clear that diffs are worthwhile. There is no split or compressed tar file yet, but I expect those of you who create them will do so soon.

How do GDB (the GNU Debugger, I take it) and the C preprocessor relate to
Emacs?
Another question:
When I use "M-x shell", all control-characters sent during the communication
with the inferior shell (including ^M) get put into the buffer. Is there any
way to avoid this?

The compressed tar file exists, but it is 3,201,173 bytes long. The split version would really help. Would whoever does this, please let us know when you do, and where the files are on prep?

I suppose you could hack the code in Emacs that receives the output of the shell and stuffs it in the buffer to ignore ^M, if you've got a lot of programs that produce ^M^J for newline. But what do you want to do with the other control characters? Dale -- Dale Worley Cullinet Software UUCP: ...!seismo!harvard!mit-eddie!cullvax!drw ARPA: cullvax!drw@eddie.mit.edu

The control characters from shells are generally provided courtesy of the terminal driver. Try 'stty nl' to the shell, which tells the terminal driver that the ``terminal'' (i.e. emacs) will automatically provide carriage returns for newlines and the tty driver needn't insert them. The reason this ``works'' some places and not others is probably related more to individual users' .profile or .cshrc files than anything else. Also, a while back, Robert Wells posted some mods to shell-mode (I think based on telnet-mode) which work if you let the tty driver echo - they delete all typed input as it is sent to the shell and then the tty driver's echo (or the shell's for that matter) pops back just as though you weren't typing through an emacs window. One nice feature is that non-echoed things such as passwords disappear from you buffer once you hit return. I don't know if they also suppress the unneeded CR's or not - I expect not. I can dig these changes up for anyone who's interested, as can Robert I expect (rwells@bbn.com). /jr jr@bbn.com or jr@bbnccv.uucp Without life, there wouldn't be chemical companies.

Just say 'stty nl -echo' as your first command to the shell. Actually, this seems to be taken care of automatically on my gnu emacs, except when I rlogin to another machine within one of those shells.

Is there any > way to avoid this? How about putting the line stty -echo into your .emacs_csh file - This is assuming that you are using csh. I assume that the same would work if you put it into .emacs_sh but I don't know - Neil

I had the same problem with 17.64. I solved it by removing all occurances
of tset and xs from my .cshrc. I found that xs (an alias that ran resize)
was waiting for input and I had to hit some returns before it would
continue. This input used to be supplied by xterm. tset run without the
-I option caused the ^M's and the echoing of input. I moved them all to my
.login or into alias that I run to set ther terminal type.
