I don't want to detour the attention about the question of William Daffer, but i
also prefer M-x term instead of M-x shell, because the output of M-x shell is
not well formatted compared to M-x term.

Now i put the following question:

What's the difference between M-x shell and M-x term?

How can i configure M-x shell to be well formatted?

One example of the bad formatation of the output of M-x shell, is when i do ls
-la.
I get the following:

]]] file1     ]]] file3^]]]     ]]] file5^]]]
 ]]] file2   ]]] file4^]]]     ]]] file6^]]]


With the M-x term i get well formatted:

file1   file3   file5
file2   file4   file6
