Thanks for the examples. Anything goes, of course, but I'm hoping for a tighter integration. Maybe a :prompt param to sh source blocks, which sets the prompt in a session, and which also manipulates `comint-prompt-regexp' or `shell-prompt-pattern' local in the session buffer. Or a mechanism like in Tramp, where the shell prompt is set to a random string not expected in the shell (see `tramp-end-of-output'), and `comint-prompt-regexp' or `shell-prompt-pattern' are adapted automatically local in the session buffer. > Chuck Best regards, Michael.
