This is admittedly a superficial question.
Although ansi-term
starts out behaving correctly when I first open it, it seems to degrade into an 'editable' mode after a few commands, e.g., when I do C-a
(start of line) followed by C-k
(kill line), it wipes out the whole prompt.
For my aesthetic sanity, is there any way to make the prompts and previous output uneditable (for shell
)? (Updated to exclude ansi-term given the meaningful differences.)
I'm using zsh in Emacs 24.4; OS is LXDE (Ubuntu 14.04) via Virtual Box.
(Ideally I'd still be able to move my cursor around...)
C-c C-j
. Try finding out that default or switch to char mode withC-c C-k

, you're asking two very different questions at the same time here. Mind splitting this into two separate questions? – purple_arrows Oct 31 '14 at 12:50
