(shell-command-default-error-buffer): Renamed from shell-command-on-region-default-error-buffer. (shell-command-on-region): Mention in echo area when there is some error output. Mention success or failure, too. Accumulate multiple error outputs going forward, with formfeed in between. Display the error buffer when we have put something in it. (shell-command): Add the ERROR-BUFFER argument feature.

;;; Commentary:

;; This file tries to provide backward compatability with sendmail.el
;; for Message mode.  It should be used by simply adding
;;
;; (require 'messcompat)
;;
;; to the .emacs file.  Loading it after Message mode has been
;; loaded will have no effect.

;;; Code:

(require 'sendmail)

(defvar message-from-style mail-from-style
  "*Specifies how \"From\" headers look.

If `nil', they contain just the return address like:
	[e-mail]
If `parens', they look like:
	[e-mail] (Elvis Parsley)
If `angles', they look like:
	Elvis Parsley <[e-mail]>

Otherwise, most addresses look like `angles', but they look like
`parens' if `angles' would need quoting and `parens' would not.")

(defvar message-default-headers mail-default-headers
