There is also the function send-invisible. Maybe it helps to understand your or your shell's needs when you would explain what you intend to do and to achieve… -- Greetings Pete If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure. – George W.

I did press return and it just brought the command line back without doing anything. I'm running erlang inside of emacs. I.e., I type in erl and it takes me in to an erlang command-line. It accepts certain ctrl command to do things. In erlang, when you press ctrl-g it should bring up a line that says: User switch command --> so I can do other commands. wes ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

What about sending other keypress sequences through to a shell? I finally got this working. I have an erlang mode installed and I entered that and did c-c c-z to start an erlang shell and this time when I pressed ctrl-g it put a ^G on the line, but this time when I pressed enter, it did what was expected.

Correction - it was c-q c-g, not just c-g that enter a ^G that I then could press enter and it took affect. wes ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
