Subject: password prompt in comint.el
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2002 11:49:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E16xm4b-0007xX-00@pot.cnuce.cnr.it> (raw)
Sometimes prompts for passwords begin with whitespace, which is annoying
and ugly when comint displays them in the minibuffer. This happens for
example with GPG.
The following patch addresses this problem. If it is okay, I can
install it.
