I did "C-x 4 C-f ..." and the minibuffer announced activity like unsetting variables. Then it showed "tramp: setting shell prompt" and hung there. And it's been hanging for about ten minutes. I have three emacs frames open and all three are hung. (I can't run any commands, can't even move the point, not with the keyboard and not even with the mouse. Can't open any menus either. I'm using emacs 20.7.41. Any help appreciated.
