Subject: bug#41858: 28.0.50; [PATCH]: Make project-shell use universal argument
Date: Sun, 14 Jun 2020 18:29:28 +0000 [thread overview]

Hello,
Attached is a patch to change the default behaviour of 'project-shell'.
My use case is:
- Edit some file in some project.
- 'M-x project-shell'
- Do something, then "C-x 0"
- Oops forgot to read output.
- 'M-x project-shell'
- See the same buffer.
Right now 'project-shell' opens a new buffer every time it is invoked. Now I have to find it in the buffer list. Putting previous behaviour on universal argument will in addition enable this workflow
- Edit some file in some project.
- 'M-x project-shell'
- 'C-u M-x project-shell'
- Now emacs is split it two, with two separate shell processes
In addition, I let default name be *'project-root-dir'-shell* to signify this shell buffer to be unique from other shell buffers invoked by 'M-x shell'.
All the best,
Theodor Thornhill
