I'd like to run "top" in *shell*; unfortunately,
all the cursor-control stuff it generates makes
for a totally unreadable display.

Does emacs have some mode that knows to do "the right
thing" with all that screen-control garbage, so that
the changing display in *shell* looks similar to what
you see when running it outside of emacs?

Thanks!

David

(I suppose the same mode would enable to eg run vi
within *shell* too.)
