In bash, ^P puts the cursor at the same spot where it was (when we hit
RET) last command. In emacs shell mode, M-p (comint-previous-input)
always puts the cursor at the end of the line, no matter what. Perhaps
it could be made to be like bash... at least for the latest previous
command.

I tried this on Debian Stale now, and C-p didn't do that. Perhaps you
have a special setting?

I think that sounds like a slightly confusing feature, so I'm closing
this bug report.

Yes, in .inputrc
set history-preserve-point on
Once you try it you'll never go back!
