25;;; Commentary:
26
27;; Support for remote logins using `rlogin'.
28;; This program is layered on top of shell.el; the code here only accounts
29;; for the variations needed to handle a remote process, e.g. directory
30;; tracking and the sending of some special characters.
31
32;; If you wish for rlogin mode to prompt you in the minibuffer for
33;; passwords when a password prompt appears, just enter m-x send-invisible
34;; and type in your line, or add `comint-watch-for-password-prompt' to
35;; `comint-output-filter-functions'.

134 "Open a network login connection via `rlogin' with args INPUT-ARGS.
135INPUT-ARGS should start with a host name; it may also contain
136other arguments for `rlogin'.
137
138Input is sent line-at-a-time to the remote connection.
139
140Communication with the remote host is recorded in a buffer `*rlogin-HOST*'
141\(or `*rlogin-USER@HOST*' if the remote username differs\).
142If a prefix argument is given and the buffer `*rlogin-HOST*' already exists,
143a new buffer with a different connection will be made.
144
145When called from a program, if the optional second argument BUFFER is
146a string or buffer, it specifies the buffer to use.
147
148The variable `rlogin-program' contains the name of the actual program to
149run. It can be a relative or absolute path.
150
151The variable `rlogin-explicit-args' is a list of arguments to give to
152the rlogin when starting. They are added after any arguments given in
153INPUT-ARGS.
154
155If the default value of `rlogin-directory-tracking-mode' is t, then the
156default directory in that buffer is set to a remote (FTP) file name to
157access your home directory on the remote machine. Occasionally this causes
158an error, if you cannot access the home directory on that machine. This
159error is harmless as long as you don't try to use that default directory.
160
161If `rlogin-directory-tracking-mode' is neither t nor nil, then the default
162directory is initially set up to your (local) home directory.
163This is useful if the remote machine and your local machine
164share the same files via NFS. This is the default.
165
166If you wish to change directory tracking styles during a session, use the
167function `rlogin-directory-tracking-mode' rather than simply setting the
168variable."
