| Jun 26, 2024 at 14:58 | comment | added | NickD | Does force quit mean you pressed C-g and that stopped the spinning? | |

| Jun 26, 2024 at 0:41 | comment | added | user44126 | oh, sorry. I am just working in emacs writing some source code. I want to launch a shell window so I can compile the code there. Yes, I get a > prompt. The shell command runs. Then emacs is unresponsive...ESC, C-D, C-Z, C-C, nothing will nudge it, not even Quit Emacs from the menu bar. If I leave it for many minutes (not sure exactly how many), it gets unstuck. | |

| Jun 25, 2024 at 20:14 | comment | added | NickD | Working on source code in Emacs 28.2... - what does that mean? Does it mean you built Emacs from source? When the shell window is launched, do you get a prompt where you type the ls -l or is there no prompt? | |
