Frequently Asked Questions

Why does zsh not work in an Emacs shell mode any more?

Z-Shell Frequently-Asked Questions
Emacs 19.29 or thereabouts stopped using a terminal type of "emacs" in shell buffers, and instead sets it to "dumb". Zsh only kicks in its special I'm-inside-emacs initialization when the terminal type is "emacs". Probably the most reliable way of dealing with this is to look for the environment variable $EMACS, which is set to t in Emacs' shell mode. Putting [[ $EMACS = t ]] && unsetopt zle in your .zshrc should be sufficient.

Gri Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Peter Galbraith has written a very powerful mode for Gri commandfiles which is supplied with Gri and which is fully documented in the manual. The capabilities of the mode include the following.

Emacs in console mode goes beyond the window size. What do I do?

To work around this problem, make the console buffer the size of the console window. Or, if you have source, apply this patch to src/w32console.c. Since version 20. See similar questions...
