Hi,
`shell-command' shall move the point after the output of the command,
unless indicated otherwise by `shell-command-dont-erase-buffer'. This
works almost, but not always. I have extracted three test cases which fail.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; Erase if buffer is the current one, but
;; `shell-command-dont-erase-buffer' is set to `erase'.
;; Move point to `point-max'.
(let ((default-directory temporary-file-directory)
(shell-command-dont-erase-buffer 'erase))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert "bar")
(cl-assert (string-equal "bar" (buffer-string)))
(cl-assert (= (point) (point-max)))
(shell-command "echo baz" (current-buffer))
(cl-assert (string-equal "baz\n" (buffer-string)))
;; Point is not moved after the inserted text.
(cl-assert (= (point) (point-max)) 'show-args)))
;; Don't erase if the buffer is the current one and
;; `shell-command-dont-erase-buffer' is set to `end-last-out'.
;; Move point to `point-max'.
(let ((default-directory temporary-file-directory)
(shell-command-dont-erase-buffer 'end-last-out))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert "bar")
(cl-assert (string-equal "bar" (buffer-string)))
(cl-assert (= (point) (point-max)))
(shell-command "echo baz" (current-buffer))
(cl-assert (string-equal "barbaz\n" (buffer-string)))
;; Point is not moved after the inserted text.
(cl-assert (= (point) (point-max)) 'show-args)))
;; Don't erase if the buffer is the current one and
;; `shell-command-dont-erase-buffer' is set to a random value.
;; Move point to `point-max'.
(let ((default-directory temporary-file-directory)
(shell-command-dont-erase-buffer 'random))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert "bar")
(cl-assert (string-equal "bar" (buffer-string)))
(cl-assert (= (point) (point-max)))
(shell-command "echo baz" (current-buffer))
(cl-assert (string-equal "barbaz\n" (buffer-string)))
;; Point is not moved after the inserted text.
(cl-assert (= (point) (point-max)) 'show-args)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
If it is undecided where point will be in the first and third case, this
shall be documented at least.
Best regards, Michael.
