RE: find-file-noselect

[Doug Lewan <dougl@shubertticketing.com>]

I'm guessing futher clarity is necessary, if only because there is so much to do with processes. 

Looking at the info page for Processes is probably a good place to start understanding what is possible whith shells and other processes. (That's Info Elisp section 37 with emacs 24.)
