bug#8687: 23.3.50; Emacs doesn't properly initialize a TTY when resuming


From: Courtney Bane
Subject: bug#8687: 23.3.50; Emacs doesn't properly initialize a TTY when resuming it
Date: Tue, 17 May 2011 17:12:33 -0500

When an Emacs server resumes a suspended frame on a TTY, it doesn't
switch back to the alternate screen. This causes the UI to still be
visible on the screen after closing the frame, which doesn't match the
behavior of a normal Emacs session. This occurs in the 23.3 release, and
in the latest versions on the "emacs-23" and "trunk" BZR branches.

I have attached a patch which allows Emacs to switch back to the
alternate screen when resuming a TTY frame.

Steps to reproduce:
($ == type at shell prompt; <> == commands for Emacs; # == comments)

$ emacs -Q --daemon
$ emacsclient -t
<press C-z to suspend frame>
# frame suspends, exiting alternate screen
$ fg
# Emacs resumes, but hasn't switched to alternate screen
<press C-x C-c to close frame>
# Emacs closes the frame, but the UI is still visible because it wasn't
# drawn on the alternate screen

What should happen:

An Emacs daemon should behave like a normal Emacs session.

Regular (non-server) Emacs behavior:

$ emacs -Q
<press C-z>
# Emacs exits the alternate screen and suspends
$ fg
# Emacs resumes, switching to alternate screen
<press C-x C-c>
# Emacs exits the alternate screen and quits

Desired client/server behavior:

$ emacs -Q --daemon
$ emacsclient -t
<press C-z to suspend frame>
# frame suspends, and exits alternate screen
$ fg
# Emacs resumes, and switches back to alternate screen
<press C-x C-c to close frame>
# Emacs closes the frame, and exits the alternate screen
