Ref e.g. 'man bash', section 'Job Control' and option '-m' re monitor mode. It usually stems from what shell and command-line does your - in this case, emacs 'shell' - command run, is it being run as an interactive shell or not, and what are the contents of the shell's startup files. You might want to compare the outputs of 'set' and 'shopt' - as done from within the emacs 'shell' - across the respective environments that you describe - i.e. clfs, lfs, root/non-root, &c. hth, akh > > Regards > > Pierre > -- -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
