In emacs lisp how do I silence "Process python-process finished"

Output

# Silencing "Process python-process finished" Messages in Emacs Lisp To silence those "Process python-process finished" messages, the most direct approach is to set the `comint-quiet-sentinel` variable to `t`. This variable controls whether Emacs displays messages when processes managed by comint-mode (which Python processes use) terminate. 

1
2
;; Add this to your Emacs configuration
(setq comint-quiet-sentinel t)
If you want to silence these messages only for Python processes but not others: 
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
;; Only silence Python process messages
(defun silence-python-sentinel ()
  (when (eq major-mode 'inferior-python-mode)
    (setq-local comint-quiet-sentinel t)))

;; Add this hook to apply the setting when a Python process starts
(add-hook 'inferior-python-mode-hook #'silence-python-sentinel)
Alternatively, if you're using a newer version of Emacs (25+), you can use the `inhibit-message` mechanism: 
1
2
3
4
(advice-add 'python-shell-sentinel :around
            (lambda (orig-func proc event)
              (let ((inhibit-message t))
                (funcall orig-func proc event))))
Any of these approaches should prevent the "Process python-process finished" messages from appearing in your echo area.

# Silencing "Process python-process finished" Messages in Emacs Lisp To silence the "Process python-process finished" messages in Emacs, you have a few options: ## Option 1: Advice the process sentinel function

(defun silence-python-process-sentinel (process event)
  "Silence the message when Python processes finish."
  (unless (and (string-prefix-p "python" (process-name process))
               (string= event "finished\n"))
    (internal-default-process-sentinel process event)))

(advice-add 'internal-default-process-sentinel :override 
            #'silence-python-process-sentinel)
## Option 2: Set process-echo-area-messages to nil 
1
(setq process-echo-area-messages nil)
Note: This will silence *all* process messages, not just Python ones. ## Option 3: Use inhibit-message temporarily

(advice-add 'python-shell-process-sentinel :around
            (lambda (orig-fun &rest args)
              (let ((inhibit-message t))
                (apply orig-fun args))))
## Option 4: For newer versions of Emacs, use the comint setting If you're using a newer version of Emacs with comint mode for Python: 
1
(setq python-shell-enable-process-name-in-feedback nil)
The first option is usually the most surgical approach that specifically targets just the Python process finished messages.
