Fixing "no job control in this shell" (emacs->General)
Emacs in Mac OS X 10.1.3 (and other versions) has an
annoying habit of having broken shells when you do M-x
shell. You get an error like "Inappropriate ioctl for device, no job control in this shell",
which makes interrupting or backgrounding programs in
shell mode impossible. Domo-kun gave me a one-line
patch to the emacs source:
#define DONT_REOPEN_PTY
. Add that to darwin.h and build emacs. You can get the
emacs source from the Darwin projects page. If you'd like a binary, drop us some mail.
