Hey there,

Maybe I’m just missing something obvious, but I’m a little bit confused as to how eat-eshell-mode works. If I, for example, fire up Eshell with Eat installed:

(elpaca-test
  :interactive t
  :init
  (elpaca eat (eat-eshell-mode))
  (eshell))

Then I try running e.g. top, I’d expect top to open in an Eat buffer, but it’s not doing that for me right now: it just opens in plain ol’ dumpy Term mode.

What am I missing? Is this not what Eshell integration is supposed to do? How do you use Eshell and Eat together?

    This is my current config: set TERM to “xterm”, and fix the otherwise impossible-to-see ANSI blue:

    (use-package eat
  :custom
  (eat-term-name "xterm")
  :custom-face
  (ansi-color-bright-blue ((t (:foreground "#00afff" :background "#00afff"))))
  :config
  (evil-set-initial-state 'eat-mode 'emacs)
  (eat-eshell-mode)
  (eat-eshell-visual-command-mode))
