- I have written some code that starts up a process and monitors and
- controls it. The problem is that something in the process-filter
- and/or process-sentinel are causing calls to "message" (I'm not doing
- it directly) which randomly trash what I'm doing in the minibuffer at
- the time it happens. How do I track this down? Can I just eliminate
- them somehow (a special form (with-messages-inhibited ...) perhaps
- :-). Any other good suggestions?

- P.S. Here's the list of all the functions I _think_ get called in the
- filter/sentinel (produced by kbd-macros from the code :-):
-
- = car cdr cond delete-process forward-line
- goto-char if insert kill-buffer let
- looking-at null or point point-max
- preceding-char process-buffer process-send-string
- replace-string save-excursion set-buffer
- setq string-match substring while
