Subject: 23.2.91; More automatic history setup for comint?

From: Reuben Thomas <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 22 Jan 2011 23:03:44 +0000

shell-mode sets comint-input-ring-file-name from HISTFILE if set, or the
name of the shell.

Two other things I currently have in my Emacs in a similar vein:

1. Set comint-input-ring-size from HISTSIZE (in shell-mode).

2. Set comint-input-ring-file-name from GDBHISTFILE (if set) in
gud-mode-hook (but since this is GDB-specific, is there a better hook?
There doesn’t seem to be a gdb-mode-hook...)
