Hi all!


My question is different but I think it fits this thread nicely.
The trouble I've run into is that typing M-x shell results in
something like this:
....

-rw-r--r-- 1 woof users    733 Mar 31 23:37 ^[[0marticle-1.xsl^[[0m
-rw-r--r-- 1 woof users   2254 Apr  1 03:03 ^[[0marticle-2.html^[[0m
-rw-r--r-- 1 woof users   1897 Apr  1 03:02 ^[[0marticle-2.xsl^[[0m
-rw-r--r-- 1 woof users   1895 Apr  1 03:01 ^[[0marticle-2.xsl~^[[0m
....

I have not touched anything, that's how my emacs-22.0.95 executes the
command by default.

I've looked through nodes 41.3 - 41.8 of the info (Shell Mode) but
nothing seems to deal with the problem.
Do you think that display is normal or should I change anything?

I would be pleased to hear your comments.
