* (RMH) system freeze and ctrl-m, a solution for some cases.
Frequently, when the *shell* buffer freezes while running either
COMMAND.COM or a DOS or Windows program initiated by command.com,
it can be unfrozen by entering the key sequence C-q C-m RET into
the frozen buffer.
What I think is happening is the coding-system got confused.
Command.com is waiting for the C-m C-l sequence and it only sees
the C-l, which it knows is not the end of the line. When we
manually give the C-m, followed by RET, it is happy and completes
parsing the line.
For example, from a *shell* buffer running bash (with ps in the
path):
command.com ps C-q C-m RET exit C-q C-m RET
command.com /c date RET C-q C-m RET
command.com /c date C-q C-m RET
* (RMH) Changes in ess-r-d.el for Windows
One of the design goals in ESS was to make it almost unnecessary
for users to make modifications to the ess-*.el files. We have
split the R function into two clones. R-unix is the old R
function. It uses the starting argument "-no-readline ".
R-microsoft is designed for Windows. It uses the starting argument
"-ess ". We detect the operating system and fset the name R to
whichever is appropriate. No user changes are required. M-x R
always works.
* (RMH) msdos.el
Start an msdos shell inside an NTemacs that normally uses bash as
its shell. It should have been easy, but had many parameters that
needed to be set. I am sending a copy of this to the Ntemacs
mailing list. I think this function should be merged into the
Ntemacs distribution, but for the moment I am attributing it to us.
