How do I turn off the utterly obnoxious behaviour of '<' in shell mode?
(Emacs v.21.4.1)
<<<
sh-maybe-here-document is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `sh-script'.
(sh-maybe-here-document ARG)
Insert self. Without prefix, following unquoted `<' inserts here document.
The document is bounded by `sh-here-document-word'.
I give all my heredocs meaningful individual names, and certainly don't want
emacs inanely thinking that I want all the terminators called 'EOF'.
It's so completely brain-dead that if I try to type a command like
echo '<<< doing phase 2 >>>'
I don't get past the second chevron before it's shat unwanted garbage
in my file.
Similarly it doesn't seem to understand that people might want to use
both expanded and non-expanded heredocs, or sometimes want leading
tab removal, but at other times not want it. And as for herestrings,
they're right out.
Magic '<', for me, must die. How do I ensure I never ever see that
abomination again? (Unbind the key and make it self-insert in a
bunch of relevant hooks? Or is there just a variable I can set to
'off' somehow?)
