one big shell command then one small one and it's like pass the joint, mon

[Dan Jacobson]

Yet another bug.  You do one shell command with lots of output and
*Shell Command Output* appears as a bottom window.  A second shell
command with a little output then causes the minibuffer to appear with
the same content as *Shell Command Output* most unprofessionally in a
double vision repeated display.

C-x 1 <escape> ! s e q SPC 1 SPC 1 SPC 8 8 <return> <escape> ! s e q
SPC 1 SPC 1 SPC 4 <return>

If you were schmart you would say "Oh, I've already got *Shell Command
Output* up there, no point in making a big deal about it in the
minibuffer."  Of course we are adding complexity, but whos schmart
idea was it to make such a peppy minibuffer in the first place?
