[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Moving by paragraph in Eshell doesn't work when there's command output
containing newlines. Consider the following case:

~ $ foo
bar

baz
~ $

The user has entered the command "foo", which has put out
"bar\n\nbaz\n". Point is after the second "$".

Now the user hits `C-c C-p' which runs `eshell-previous-prompt', and
point ends up at the blank line between "bar" and "baz", instead of
going back to the previous prompt.

It seems that setting `paragraph-separate' to something else than the
default "[ ]*$" solves the problem, though I'm uncertain what it
should be set to.

Bisecting showed that it was fixed by Noam Postavsky in
7a0ca227af1081ca7ada2e82a87b1a575ef04759 in response to
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=27405. Nice.

I'm closing this. Thanks for checking up on it.
