Dear Emacsers
I've just fallen in love with eshell, and it is now an important
part of my daily life :-), but I have a question I was wondering if
any of you eshell master's could help me solve. (nudge nudge Kai) :-)
When I'm running a job, eshell has the courtesy to tell me that the
job is done by reporting at the bottom of the screen (command line?),
that the job is finished.
I was wondering, is there a way to make that output goto a buffer with
a name of my choosing (e.g. *eshell.job.finished*)?
The reason I ask is that I would like it to actually tell me the job
is done, but in a separate window. I assume that once I can redirect
eshells message to a buffer, all I have to do is add it to my
special-dispaly-buffer-names to get it to tell me it is done in a
separate window, like such:
(setq special-display-buffer-names
'(
("*Calendar*"
(top . 580) (left . 1) (width . 82) (height . 10)
(menu-bar-lines . 0)
(font . "lucidasanstypewriter-12" )
(foreground-color . "black") (background-color . "slate gray"))
("*Process List*"
(top . 580) (left . 1) (width . 82) (height . 10)
(menu-bar-lines . 0)
(font . "lucidasanstypewriter-12" )
(foreground-color . "black") (background-color . "light steel blue"))
("*eshell.job.finished"
(top . 580) (left . 600) (width . 58) (height . 10)
(menu-bar-lines . 0)
(font . "lucidasanstypewriter-12" )
(foreground-color . "black") (background-color . "cornflower blue"))
)
)
If its of any relevance, I'm using the latest eshell, emacs v20.7 on a
the latest red hat.
thanks in advanced,
mike
