Expected behavour:
Run the code below in emacs -Q. The 'my-buf' buffer should be showing
the start of the buffer with contents of directory listing.
Actual behaviour:
The buffer appears empty, until buffer interaction. Page has scrolled to end and
content dissappeared from sight even though the whole content can fit into the buffer.
The expected behaviour happens when `mouse-autoselect-window' has it's
default setting.
(setq mouse-autoselect-window 0.1)
(let ((shell-cmd "ls -la")
(output-buffer "my-buf")
(default-directory "/
scpx:bangmyhead@192.168.0.46:")
(shell-program "/usr/bin/bash")
(process-name "my-proc"))
(start-file-process process-name (get-buffer-create output-buffer)
shell-program "-c" shell-cmd)
(switch-to-buffer output-buffer)
(with-current-buffer output-buffer
(goto-char (point-min))
(find-file-other-window "ooo")))
