Re: using pcomplete for comint.el/shell.el

[Richard Stallman]

    So, is there any objection to just loading pcomplete with shell.el?

I object because it is wasteful.

    Well, it turns out that we can't really take the approach of creating a
    proxy function for pcomplete in shell.el, because pcomplete looks at
    last-command to determine its behavior.

So make them set last-command.  It should be easy.
