I have now done the complete switch regarding the communication mechanism. The function rcp-open-connection-rlogin has been removed, as its functionality has been incorporated into rcp-open-connection-rsh. The function rcp-open-connection-rsh now looks for a password prompt and asks the user if such a prompt has been seen. ATTENTION: Most probably, the regexp in question needs to be improved. Please tell me about different kinds of password (or passphrase) prompts that you have been seeing. The whole communication now relies on the remote shell issuing a prompt after every command. Since the remote shell knows exactly when the command is finished, I'm hoping that this makes the whole thing more stable and will work with SSH2 despite its timing bug. Since so much has changed, this one is likely to break. Tell me about it... ftp://ls6-ftp.cs.uni-dortmund.de/pub/src/emacs/rcp.tar.gz kai -- Life is hard and then you die.
