Andrew Choi gave me the fix:
Tramp seems to require process-connection-type to be set to t to
use
ssh. Unfortunately as it stands, the default value of
process-connection-type is t when started from a terminal and nil
when started to run with Carbon GUI. Since you're running under
Panther, please try setting process-connection-type to t in a
startup file and see if tramp/ssh will work correctly in both
cases.
Ah, yes. I don't like this.
It's working well for me. Is there a price I don't know that I'm
paying?
It's possible that some other thing will fail if
process-connection-type is t. Hm. There was some discussion about
this somewhere, but I completely forgot about it. I don't have a Mac,
so I didn't pay attention to it.
One workaround could be use one of the *x methods. They are
documented to be good for Windows users, but the Windows users are
experiencing the same pty problem you're seeing.
I'm not sure that the *x methods are. I always invoke tramp as a side
effect of opening a file like /address@hidden:file
C-h v tramp-methods RET
You will see some methods whose names end in x. That's what I mean.
For example, instead of /ssh:address@hidden:file you could try
/sshx:address@hidden:file. I think there is also an scpx method.
The Tramp documentation explains that using /address@hidden:file is a
shortcut for /method:address@hidden:file, where the method is the default
method, as set in tramp-default-method or tramp-default-method-alist.
