* ls in eshell will cause the prompt jumped to mid of buf

in eshell, if the files listed by ls are too many to display in current  
view of the buf, the prompt will scroll to the midle of it.

I encounted this issue in emacs-unicode-2 in windows xp and 22.0.91.1 in  
ubuntu.

Is there something incorrect in my .emacs or a bug in eshell?

Thanks!

    view of the buf, the prompt will scroll to the midle of it.

Could you please send me a *precise* test case for this bug?  The test
case should start with `emacs -q', so that your .emacs file does not
affect it, and it should show exactly what text to put in the buffer,
what commands to execute, and how and where to click.  Also please say
exactly what incorrect results you get.

OK, please let me descript what I have done step by step.

1. emacs -q
2. M-x eshell
3. ls
4. ls
5. do 'ls' to list the files, until the prompt reachs the bottom
6. ls, then the prompt will scroll to the half of a page. I think it  
should be still stayed at the bottom.

If you do 'ls' in a path where has lots of files and can not be displayed  
in one page, the prompt will
appear in the half of the page directly, instead of the bottom of the page.

Is it a intended behavior? If yes, how to disable the feature?

I asked this (a intended behavior?), because if I do the following:
1.  emacs -q
2. C-x C-f
3. then hit 'enter', 'enter'..... in the keyboard
it will do the same behavior as in eshell (scroll to the half of a page).

But after I set following in .emacs, it can scroll line by line.

  '(scroll-conservatively 10000)
  '(scroll-down-aggressively 0.01)
  '(scroll-margin 3)
  '(scroll-preserve-screen-position t)
  '(scroll-up-aggressively 0.01)

But the above settings did not effect the 'eshell'. And I could not get  
help from *info* or the web
(http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eshell/Smart-scrolling.html),  
they are
empty.

At last, let me make clear my request, that is: how to scroll line by line  
in eshell?

Thanks in advance!

(add-hook 'eshell-output-filter-functions 'eshell-postoutput-scroll-to-bottom)

I think this should be there by default (since there are variables to
control _how_ it scrolls, as for comint).

Thanks, it makes things closer.

Now, after hiting 'enter', the prompt is at the bottom, but when input a  
letter, it will
move one or two line up.

Not for me (though maybe I don't understand what you mean).

You can see the different between e:\sc_tmp_13.png and e:\sc_tmp_14.png.

Yes, I can. It doesn't do that for me though.

I found the issue only occured in the default 'emacs -q' started window.


After I changed the window size, it works very well.

I have DTRT on the trunk. Since it changes the behaviour, I'm inclined
to leave the release branch alone.

The old behavior seems like a bug to me, so I think it should be fixed
in Emacs 22.

Do you think it is not a bug?

I found the issue was cause by the setting for 'scroll-margin'.

I set 'scroll-margin' to 3, when input a char, the prompt scroll up 3  
lines.

Can I set the 'scroll-margin' to 0 only for 'eshell'? I have tried  
something on load hook, but failed.

Eh, yes, make-local-variable.
