I let go of the `save-excursion' + `set-buffer' approach, in other words
being a bad boy, and got this that seems to work for me:
(defun my-eshell-execute-current-line ()
"Insert text of current line in eshell and execute."
(interactive)
(let ((command (buffer-substring
(save-excursion
(beginning-of-line)
(point))
(save-excursion
(end-of-line)
(point)))))
(let ((buf (current-buffer)))
(unless (get-buffer eshell-buffer-name)
(eshell))
(display-buffer eshell-buffer-name t)
(switch-to-buffer-other-window eshell-buffer-name)
(end-of-buffer)
(eshell-kill-input)
(insert command)
(eshell-send-input)
(end-of-buffer)
(switch-to-buffer-other-window buf))))
It annoys be however that I could not get it working without using
switch-to-buffer... The docstring says to avoid use it.
Oh well,
