"Active processes exist", can I answer yes by default?

"Active processes exist", can I answer yes by default?

[Ismael Valladolid Torres]

Whenever a shell is active and I quit Emacs, I get this message:

"Active processes exist; kill them and exit anyway? (yes or no)"

I always answer yes so I wonder if there's any chance of making it
being answered yes by default so I am never asked.

Any ideas welcome.

Cordially, Ismael

I think is not a very good idea,  it's a good way for prevent catastrophes for 
example data loss, may be you will want to put this in your ~.emacs file:

(fset 'yes-or-no-p 'y-or-n-p)

this short to `y' or `n'  the `yes' or `no' prompts.

This is what I use:

(add-hook 'shell-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (set-process-query-on-exit-flag
              (get-buffer-process (current-buffer)) nil)))

It is only in effect for shell mode, because I want Emacs to query me
for other processes.

set-process-query-on-exit-flag seems not to be defined in my version
of Emacs, however the code below did it.

(process-kill-without-query (get-process "shell"))

You are right, it is new in Emacs 22 to replace
process-kill-without-query. Sorry about that.
