Subject: bug#1251: 23.0.60; `process-status' does not work with buffer names
Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2008 19:14:16 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081025171416.86510B45CE5@mt-computer.local> (raw)
Contrary to what its info entry says, process-status does not work if
its argument is a buffer name; in emacs -Q, evaluating the form:
(let* ((buffer "bc-buf")
(bc (start-process "bc" buffer "/usr/bin/bc")))
(mapcar 'process-status (list buffer (get-buffer buffer))))
yields:
(nil run)
The following patch fixes this problem for me:
2008-10-25 Markus Triska <markus.triska@gmx.at>
* process.c (Fprocess_status): Accept buffer names.
Update docstring to match info description.
