Hi Johan,
We were on IRC today. I mentioned that eshell's built-in kill command
doesn't seem to be able to kill any processes -- not even xeyes. But
/bin/kill works fine. Example: kill 4946 didn't kill xeyes on my PC,
but /bin/kill 4946 did. I asked if anyone could confirm this.
You <bojohan> and Phil Hagelberg <technomancy> both confirmed the bug.
Plus, you wrote a little patch to esh-arg.el and told me it would fix
the problem:
< (add-text-properties 0 1 '(number t) str))
> (add-text-properties 0 (length str) '(number t) str))
Yes. It fixes the problem. Could you please commit it? :)
Thanks in advance,
-Jason
