(Fminibuffer_complete_and_exit): Supply value for new ESCAPE_FROM_EDGE parameter to Ffield_beginning. (Fminibuffer_complete_word): Use Ffield_beginning to find the prompt end. (Fminibuffer_complete_and_exit): Test for an empty input string by seeing where the field begins, instead of looking at text-properties. (read_minibuf): Don't save minibuffer prompt length on minibuf_save_list. Don't initialize minibuffer prompt length. Wrap prompt text-properties around the entire prompt. Add 'prompt text-property to prompt. Get final value with Ffield_string instead of make_buffer_string. (read_minibuf_unwind): Don't restore minibuffer prompt length from minibuf_save_list. (do_completion): Get minibuffer input with Ffield_string instead of Fbuffer_string. Erase minibuffer input with Ferase_field instead of erase_buffer. (Fminibuffer_complete_and_exit): Likewise. Test whether buffer is empty by looking for the 'prompt text property at the end. Set prompt length by looking for the end of the prompt text property, and save prompt length for later use (since there is no longer a buffer variable to get it from). (Fminibuffer_prompt_width, Fminibuffer_prompt_end): Functions removed. (syms_of_minibuf): Remove initializations of Sminibuffer_prompt_width and Sminibuffer_prompt_end.

;;; Commentary:

;; Terminals that use XON/XOFF flow control can cause problems with
;; GNU Emacs users.  This file contains Emacs Lisp code that makes it
;; easy for a user to deal with this problem, when using such a
;; terminal. 
;;      
;; To invoke these adjustments, a user need only invoke the function
;; enable-flow-control-on with a list of terminal types in his/her own
;; .emacs file.  As arguments, give it the names of one or more terminal
;; types in use by that user which require flow control adjustments.
;; Here's an example: 
;; 
;;	(enable-flow-control-on "vt200" "vt300" "vt101" "vt131")

;; Portability note: This uses (getenv "TERM"), and therefore probably
;; won't work outside of UNIX-like environments.

;;; Code:

(defvar flow-control-c-s-replacement ?\034
  "Character that replaces C-s, when flow control handling is enabled.")
