Given ...

#### (comint-run "/bin/bash")

... the following ...

#### (with-current-buffer "*bash*"
####   (insert "if true
#### then
#### echo hello
#### fi")
####   (comint-send-input))

... outputs ...

#### $ if true
#### then
#### echo hello
#### fi
#### > > > hello

Not good.

Similarly, ...

#### (with-current-buffer "*bash*"
####   (dolist (line (list "if true"
####                       "then"
####                       "echo hello"
####                       "fi"))
####     (insert line)
####     (comint-send-input)))

... also gives the same output.

(I took this as a minimal working bug reproducer).

After investigating, I found that ...

#### (with-current-buffer "*bash*"
####   (let ((comint-process-echoes t))
####     (dolist (line (list "if true"
####                         "then"
####                         "echo hello"
####                         "fi"))
####       (insert line)
####       (comint-send-input))))

... outputs (perhaps the desired) ...

$ if true
> then
> echo hello
> fi
hello

Would this help?
