| Truncated Process Output Problem When Emacs Runs in Terminal |
|
Long-time users of Emacs on Mac OS X will know that the Lisp variable
process-connection-type needs to be set
to nil. Otherwise some output of processes started by
Emacs may be lost. This is due to a broken implementation of pty's in
Darwin.
Process-connection-type is set to nil by
default in lisp/term/mac-win.el. But when Emacs is
started in the terminal by emacs -nw, that code doesn't
get executed. I'll probably fix the problem by removing pty support
entirely in the future. For now, please add
(setq process-connection-type nil)
to your startup file or site startup file if you're experiencing problems with anything that starts an external process, e.g., tramp, compile, diff, ediff, man, etc.
