Are you getting full value for your Emacs *shell* window or is there wasted lines at the top above the "1" output? Then take this other quick test, $ set|egrep LINES\|COLUMNS Bla bla bla. Bla. Anyways, my COLUMNS were right on target, but my lines were only 24. Don't know who to blame. Emacs, debian, bash, me, my mom. Anyways, see, another problem. -- http://jidanni.org/ Taiwan(04)25854780
