| Feb 1, 2024 at 17:07 | comment | added | rpluim | There's also the vterm package, which solves that issue, but that's an external dependency. | |
| Feb 1, 2024 at 13:55 | comment | added | U. Windl | ...but ansi-term seems to have a limited or no scroll-back buffer, so I see no advantage compared to using the terminal directly. | |
| Feb 1, 2024 at 13:36 | comment | added | U. Windl | I also didn't know about ansi-term; when I tried it, it worked! | |
| Feb 1, 2024 at 13:03 | comment | added | rpluim | If you want a tty, use ansi-term, but it's probably easier to change your code to always prompt with something like "Password:" | |

| Feb 1, 2024 at 11:22 | comment | added | U. Windl | Never heard about that ;-) Well, it's even worse: 1) comint-password-prompt-regexplacks PIN: and 2) (even more worse) my program suppresses the prompt unless (-t STDIN) (which seems true for Emacs' shell mode). | |
| Feb 1, 2024 at 11:06 | comment | added | rpluim | Does your program's prompt match comint-password-prompt-regexp? | |
