Not sure if this is the right newsgroup for this, but we don't seem to
get gnu.emacs.bug though I clearly remember seeing it.

I'm using Emacs 18.55 (still!) / bash 1.05, SunOS 4.1, X11R4.

I've just changed my shell to bash, from a local Edinburgh shell,
this problem is also manifested with csh & any other shell I can try
with job control.

If I'm in an xterm, I can say `emacs&' & then run a shell under emacs
& everything is fine.

What I often do however is essentially this:

	rsh -n <host> "DISPLAY=<my display> emacs"&

to run an emacs somewhere else.  In *this* emacs, if I run a shell, I
get a rude message about `Process shell stopped (tty input)'.

It turns out that if I disable job contol (+m switch to bash, can't do
it with csh I think), then it works.

I don't understand what's doing this at all, but I guess it must be
some process group problem.  Is there any known fix: how do people who
use csh survive with Emacs?
