accessing shell in emacs

accessing shell in emacs

[mitball]

I'm having trouble with the accessing the shell inside emacs.  As usually I
launch the shell inside emacs using "M-x shell"  However, whenever I type
something into the shell, it's preceeded by ^M^M.  For example:

tcsh> ls
ls^M^m
...then processes command.

The commands I type still seem to work, just that it always shows the ^M^M. 
Any idea how to resolve this.  This doesn't happen if I use xterm or
something..

try putting this into your .emacs

(add-hook 'shell-mode-hook 'ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on)

save and reload the file and report back
