>From 8bd3aa929a0ce6510d7c7550070f569caa65ec5e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Eggert Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2019 17:44:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Remove buggy regexp use in comint-output-filter MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This reverts commit 2012-07-02T16:18:address@hidden which perhaps could be rethought and recommitted, and perhaps it’s no longer needed now that comint-use-prompt-regexp is almost always nil. * lisp/comint.el (comint-output-filter): Don’t try to skip repeated prompts, since comint-prompt-regexp typically begins with "^" and the resulting "^^" in the regular expression does not have the desired effect.
