When running the telnet command, if variable telnet-remote-echoes is set, then the command comint-previous-prompt deletes the field text property that the command comint-previous-prompt uses (assuming that variable comint-use-prompt-regexp is nil). It also removes the mouse-highlighting and so mouse-2 cannot be used to re-insert that command. There is no need for variable telnet-remote-echoes because variable comint-process-echoes can be used to remove the second copy, and it does it without removing the text properties.

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately got no response at the time.) I tried `M-x telnet' with `telnet-remote-echoes' set (and the other variables also have the values described), and everything looks normal to me. I'm not sure what problem this bug report describes -- I have no mouse highlight in the *telnet* buffer, and I'm not sure what that has to do with do with `C-c C-p' (`comint-previous-point'). This is with Emacs 28, though, so perhaps what's being described here has been fixed in the 11 years since this was reported. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no

More information was requested, but no response was given within a month, so I'm closing this bug report. If the problem still exists, please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
