Ok, thanks for sharing that. If you are going to act as the developer
for now, then here it goes.
The behaviour I am getting is basically that whenever I mark multiple
messages and run `|s' with cat as the command, Emacs freezes. The
only way to recover is to forcibly kill the cat process in the task
manager. Then I see messages like:
Next command uses marks...
vm-pipe-messages-to-command: writing to process:
CCL: Quited., cat
Next command uses marks...
vm-pipe-messages-to-command: writing to process: invalid
argument, cat
in the *Messages* buffer. It doesn't seem to matter what messages I
try it on.
When I try it on a single message, it often works.
This is the behaviour I see with my patched version which is on
launchpad, as well as the patches you posted today.
If you want me to post something that will help diagnose the problem,
then you need to tell me what you want to send and where to send it to.
The other problem that I saw with your original patch, to do with the
'command' variable, didn't arise today. But I haven't checked closely
to see whether the problem code was getting exercised or not.
---
There is some merit in the rest of the arguments in your message that
I will think about.
I am not 'fixated' on my code. If it is faulty, I am quite happy to
retract it. It happens all the time! But I think this message was
the first instance where you have talked about anything going wrong.
So, thanks for getting to the point!
Cheers,
Uday
