Hi all: I've recently noticed the wonders of tramp and running shells on remote machines in emacs, great time-saver, thanks all!
Sorry if this as been mentioned before, but searches came up empty. I notice on my emacs (fedora 11's, i.e. 23.1.1) in shell-mode (M-x shell), whenever I do a cd with an absolute path (or a cd with no argument or tildes), it messes up the current directory shell-mode thinks it's in and gets rid of the "tramp-ness", so to speak, and tab-autocomplete will now think any further paths are on the local machine. For instance, *Buffer List* shows this on spawning a remote shell with M-x shell: * *shell* 81 Shell:run /scp:soma:/home/e3/ I do a "cd /" (or just "cd", or "cd ~") and now *Buffer List* shows this: * *shell* 114 Shell:run / And from then on, tab autocomplete will look at the local machine's filesystem instead of the remote one. So my question is a) is this a known problem and b) is there a way to make shell-mode respond to absolute paths more correctly? I'm not even sure if the problem is in tramp or in shell-mode to be honest.
