Hey, cool! It's not quite what I meant, but you're showing me the
interesting bits. I need to set comint-input-sender to my function,
and my function needs to fall back using comint-simple-send.
What I meant was something less automatic: Have an alist which says
which Lisp to invoke depending on the first word.
But maybe it's also good to use the eshell way of doing things: just
look for a kshell/foo function if the user entered foo.
When using eshell, I noticed that many Lisp functions are not suitable
to be called from the shell prompt. For example, cvs-update is a good
candiate, but it requires me to pass FLAGS (and DIRECTORY). It just
fees unnatural to type "cvs-update . nil" at the shell prompt, when
"cvs-update" ought to do.
But let me thank you again for showing me the way to do it. If I ever
get a round tuit, then of course I'll share my meagre results.
(For maximum bliss, I'll need to work on getting a decent shell under
Windows.)
