Have you reported this to >Hirano and Higashida? It's not quite as simple. The actual subshell function aborts on receiving the error from the shell, no matter what it is. That means that no clean-up is performed and the subshell exit hook (whatever it is) does not get used. On my Demacs, which uses ANSI key redefinition, that means that the keyboard gets all screwed up. Yes, I have reported the bug along with various others. However, I did not get a reply, and I'm not sure there's any ongoing development on DEmacs. Anybody have connections? Cheers :-> Chipsy
