I am trying to turn off the interpretation of ! as a history expansion character, since this is inconvenient in some of the string processing I'm doing. Doing an eval-exp (setq comint-input-autoexpand nil) doesn't have any effect on this. Nor does putting (setq comint-input-autoexpand nil) in my site-lisp default.el or prolog.el. Similar things with shell-input-autoexpand don't seem to work either. How can I get the shell to stop bothering my exclamation marks?? -- Michael A.
