Doesn't work well with Cygwin
I know at least one user has had trouble getting rlc to work well on cygwin. I don't use cygwin (or windows) so I can't test this. If there are any cygwin rlc users out there who are having trouble, and are interested in doing a bit of group debugging with me, post here!
When using cygwin/bash in emacs, it gives
bash: cannot set terminal process group (-1): Inappropriate ioctl for device bash: no job control in this shell
Following configure within readline-complete.el doesn't work.
(setq explicit-bash-args '("-c" "export EMACS=; stty echo; bash"))
fakecygpty solve this problem using something like this:
(let ((comint-process-echoes t)) (make-comint "cyg-bash" "fakecygpty" nil "d:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe" "-c" "export EMACS=; stty echo;d:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe" ))
Need more work to do to enable fakcecygpty when using shell command. Maybe a wrapper? Any help?
