bug#1014: 23.0.60; term and epa do not recognize 'Return' key

[Chris Patterson]

This issue appears in 2 places; term, and epa:
Runing m-x term (any available shell produces the same error)
pressing the 'Return' key results in the message:
Wrong type argument: integerp, return
*Messages* buffer displays: term-send-raw: Wrong type argument:  
integerp, return
Using the 'Enter' key works fine.

Also, when entering a passphrase for epa the input is not read  
unleess 'Enter'
is used. The 'Return' key does not give the error message seen in  
term and
nothing is in *Messages* but it seems to be the same problem.

Hi Chris,

this should have been fixed (not by me, but I reported it as well and it
works with a recent build of Emacs, as of 2008-09-15).

Today's MacOS build is broken (I was going to report it but ran out of
town over the weekend), but you can check out the 2008-09-15 version of
the tree if you need a working build.

Thanks for the info. I'll give that a shot.
