Subject: find-file-noselect
Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2012 10:15:25 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1346346925167-262675.post@n5.nabble.com> (raw)

I want a function that does the same thing, but with the shell, e.g., what
this does to a file: 

(save-excursion
  (let ((foo (get-buffer (find-file-noselect "/home/drain/foo.org"))))
	(set-buffer foo)
	(insert "test operation")))

In case further clarity is necessary:

I want to open a shell buffer, but do not want to select it (so I stay in
the current buffer). Just like the above, but with the shell instead of
foo.org.
