I propose to change paragraph-start in Shell mode and Ielm from:
(setq paragraph-start comint-prompt-regexp)
to:
(setq paragraph-start (concat "[ \t\f]*$\\|" comint-prompt-regexp))
This will make no user visible difference, for reasons explained
below. But the current value is misleading given the paragraph-start
docstring:
*Regexp for beginning of a line that starts OR separates paragraphs.
This regexp should match lines that separate paragraphs
and should also match lines that start a paragraph
(and are part of that paragraph).
In Shell mode and Ielm blank lines already do separate paragraphs,
since the value of paragraph separate is "[ \t\f]*$". In view of the
above excerpt of the docstring, paragraph-start should match empty
lines too, which the current value does not.
I can install if desired.
Sincerely,
Luc.
