What exactly were you expecting? If you open a terminal window and start, say, firefox from it, the terminal window will "hang" until you close firefox - then you get another prompt and can give it some more input. This is no different. It would be nice if emacs were multithreaded, but it isn't (at least not yet). > If I use emacs -Q ( evaluating just (org-babel-do-load-languages > 'org-babel-load-languages '((sh . t))) ) this doesn't happen. > When you say "this" doesn't happen, what do you meant by "this"? How does this example compare with the previous example? They look completely different to me. -- Nick
