I tried putting ? > "stty nl -echo" into "~/.emacs_csh" with no effect. WHATS GOING ON? ? ? I found out why I was having this problem: my shell was tcsh, not csh. ? And tcsh turns on echo and outputs ^M's, and it ignores the 'nl' and ? '-echo' options to 'stty'. I worked around this problem by making an alias ? for emacs that first sets the SHELL variable to /bin/csh. That is certainly one solution, altho not the best one. The `proper' way is to (setq shell-file-name "/bin/csh") in your .emacs file. Of course, in the GNU lisp-shell (lsh) you would do: (alias emacs (lambda (SHELL) (emacs)) "/bin/csh") :-) Now as to tcsh, who has the latest and greatest copy and where can I get it from? ?

Re: sex.1: While we're at it, why don't we censor Zippy as well! After all, what does a Pinhead have to do with emacs either? P.P.S. To all you lispers out there, I would appreciate any refinement on my `alias'.
