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

Output

In Emacs Lisp, you can silence the message "Process python-process finished" by customizing the `comint-output-filter-functions` or by using the `set-process-sentinel` function to modify the behavior of the process sentinel. Here's how you can do it: ### Method 1: Using `set-process-sentinel` You can set a custom sentinel for the process that suppresses the message.

(defun my-python-process-sentinel (process event)
  "Custom sentinel for Python process to suppress the finished message."
  (unless (string-match-p "finished" event)
    (message "Process %s %s" process event)))

(set-process-sentinel (get-process "python-process") 'my-python-process-sentinel)
### Method 2: Using `comint-output-filter-functions` You can add a filter function to `comint-output-filter-functions` to suppress the message.

(defun my-suppress-process-message (output)
  "Suppress the 'Process python-process finished' message."
  (unless (string-match-p "Process python-process finished" output)
    output))

(add-hook 'comint-output-filter-functions 'my-suppress-process-message)
### Method 3: Using `with-output-to-temp-buffer` If you are running the process in a temporary buffer, you can suppress the message by redirecting the output to a temporary buffer.
1
2
(with-output-to-temp-buffer "*Python Output*"
  (call-process "python" nil "*Python Output*" t "-c" "print('Hello, World!')"))
### Method 4: Using `setq` to Silence Messages You can temporarily silence all messages by setting `inhibit-message` to `t`.
1
2
(let ((inhibit-message t))
  (call-process "python" nil nil nil "-c" "print('Hello, World!')"))
### Method 5: Customizing `comint-process-echoes` If you are using `comint` mode, you can customize `comint-process-echoes` to suppress the message.
1
(setq comint-process-echoes nil)
### Method 6: Using `ignore` Function You can use the `ignore` function to ignore the message.
1
(ignore (call-process "python" nil nil nil "-c" "print('Hello, World!')"))
### Method 7: Using `with-temp-buffer` You can use `with-temp-buffer` to run the process without displaying the message.
1
2
(with-temp-buffer
  (call-process "python" nil t nil "-c" "print('Hello, World!')"))
Choose the method that best fits your use case. If you are working with a specific mode or package, there might be a more specific way to handle this.
