Subject: ielm uses the cat program
Date: 30 Jan 2003 13:19:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <uwukmsudg.fsf@bsiag.com> (raw)
ielm.el contains the following:
;; A dummy process to keep comint happy. It will never get any input
(if (comint-check-proc (current-buffer)) nil
(start-process "ielm" (current-buffer) "cat")
When I just installed Emacs 21 on a friend's windows machine without
any unix-like tools on it, M-x ielm would not work because he did not
have cat installed. Can we replace the cat program with anything
else?
Alex.
