+;; Author: Peter Breton <pbreton@ne.mediaone.net>
+
+;; This little add-on for comint is intended to make it easy to get
+;; output from currently active comint buffers into another buffer,
+;; or buffers, and then go back to using the comint shell.
+;;
+;; My particular use is SQL interpreters; I want to be able to execute a
+;; query using the process associated with a comint-buffer, and save that
+;; somewhere else. Because the process might have state (for example, it
+;; could be in an uncommitted transaction), just running starting a new
+;; process and having it execute the query and then finish, would not
+;; work. I'm sure there are other uses as well, although in many cases
+;; starting a new process is the simpler, and thus preferable, approach.
+;;
+;; The basic implementation is as follows: comint-redirect changes the
+;; preoutput filter functions (comint-preoutput-filter-functions) to use
+;; its own filter. The filter puts the output into the designated buffer,
+;; or buffers, until it sees a regexp that tells it to stop (by default,
+;; this is the prompt for the interpreter, comint-prompt-regexp). When it
+;; sees the stop regexp, it restores the old filter functions, and runs
+;; comint-redirect-hook.
+;;
+;; Each comint buffer may only use one redirection at a time, but any number
+;; of different comint buffers may be simultaneously redirected.
+;;
+;; NOTE: It is EXTREMELY important that `comint-prompt-regexp' be set to the
+;; correct prompt for your interpreter, or that you supply a regexp that says
+;; when the redirection is finished. Otherwise, redirection will continue
+;; indefinitely. The code now does a sanity check to ensure that it can find
+;; a prompt in the comint buffer; however, it is still important to ensure that
+;; this prompt is set correctly.
