RE: [h-e-w] Bash with emacs's shell

[Underwood, Jonathan]

Hi

Since some people seem to be having difficulty getting bash working under
emacs 21.1 i thought i'd post some (very) simple lisp i'm currently using to
get both bash and cmd.exe working. Eventually i'll put this together as some
sort of package, but for now this may get those of you having trouble up and
running. Please find attached file.
