Execute In Multiple Shells?
gamename
Hi,
How can I send the same command to multiple shell buffers at the same
time? That is, if I have 5 bash shells running, how can I send
"source ./.bash" to all of them at once?
Thanks,

The latter can easily be put into ~/.emacs_bash...

How is this different from `get-buffer`?

Happy Hacking.

It uses truename, which I forgot to adjoin:
(defun truename (filespec)
"
RETURN: The absolute path name corresponding to fielspec.
"
(car (file-expand-wildcards (shell-quote-argument filespec) t)))
