| Linux and pari.el |
Dear developpers,
Here is a bug that was submitted to me but that I do not know
how to mend:
With Linux, start emacs (20.2) and ask for pari.el via M-x gp
for instance. The output got by one user is surprising:
-- the gp process is started in a shell (tcsh).
-- Everything goes fine till this command terminates, i.e. till
the gp process sends the prompt.
-- Then it seems a kill-or-exit-signal is sent to the gp process...
The eLisp command is
(start-process
"pari" ;; A name for this process.
"*PARI*" ;; Name of the buffer containing the process
shell-file-name ;; The process started: it is tcsh.
"-c" ;; tcsh option: execute the command following.
"stty -echo nl;gp" ;; The command to execute. stty sets some
;; environment things that I do not understand
;; well. Most probably set CR to NL on inputs
;; and ouputs. gp is of course the name of
;; the gp executable.
)
I remember having had a similar problem with MuPAD, and I cured it
by adding the option -P e (suppress echo) to the MuPAD process. But
that was only cooking.
I would like to know: if anyone has had a similar problem, and if yes
what are the usual parameters of stty (stty [Return] gives that), and
most important, if anyone could cure that for me...
Hopefully,
Olivier
