I'm testing apps in a shell buffer which uses the "password:" > string. This confuses comint. You can (set (make-local-variable 'comint-password-prompt-regexp) "\\`a\\`") But it'd be interesting to see what is the actual string(s) sent by your app and mistakenly interpreted as a password prompt. Maybe we make the default regexp "tighter" so it doesn't get confused? Stefan
