I think that I need to clarify here. We are talking about two different things: 1. Bash src block without session 2. Bash src block with session The original report used bash src blocks _without_ session. In such scenario, comint (and M-x shell) is not relevant. Org simply uses `process-file' with INFILE argument. This is equivalent of someone opening __X shell__, and literally typing ssh coch...@fruc.u-strasbg.fr "echo foo>foo_file" echo "bar" In the scenario described in the report, when ssh asks for password, it is equivalent to $ ssh coch...@fruc.u-strasbg.fr "echo foo>foo_file" Password: <typing 'echo "bar"' here> This has nothing to do with Emacs comint and this is also not a bug in Emacs - we use INFILE argument, that is equivalent to the above as _per docstring_. So, Org mode is simply not using `process-file' function as users expect - instead of executing a bash script, we emulate interactive user input to bash. (Side note: for someone aware about these details, it is possible to do something like #+begin_src bash ssh remote-server; <<super-secret-password-derived-from-library-of-babel-block-stored-in-safe-private-place>> #+end_src or, as a demo #+begin_src bash read x; value2 echo "We just read \"$x\""; #+end_src #+RESULTS: : We just read "value2" <end of side note>) Another case is (2), when we do use comint is session is what we discussed in https://list.orgmode.org/orgmode/cal1eyujntgbxy6a794qm7ptbxh3diu1af6oays7clf3kobs...@mail.gmail.com/ I guess we can try to report this as a bug, especially since it also manifests itself when comint is used interactively. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
