sorry for my first mail. It seems a little misleading.
It's not to allocate a term-ish thing for ranger *from emacs*.
Indeed, I'd like to run "ranger" as the foreground process, since I am
already inside terminal.
Btw, the M-x term thing failed, out put here:

But it's not relevant here because the terminal should be my own terminal.
regards.
