I tried to install gnuemacs v18.55 posted some months ago in
comp.binaries.atari.st on my ST (2Mb), but I still have some problems:

1) Shell problem:
   --------------
	When I press the <Return> key in a shell-mode buffer (*Shell*), I
always get the following message:

	%: not found
	cmd exit code -33

although my ESHELL env-var has the value "c:\gnu\gulam405\gulam.prg".
(I have a copy of gulam under "c:\bin\sh" too)
If I replace the "(insert "\n% ")" line of shell.el by "(insert "\n ")",
commands seem to be sent to the shell but the results dont go into the *Shell*
buffer. This append whatever the value of ESHELL is (!?). By the way,
shell-command work fine.
What must I do to get it work (like what I'm used under Unix) ?

2) Keyboard and mouse problem:
   ---------------------------
	The function keys and the keypad keys return key codes such as
"#0", "#1" ... The mouse left and right buttons return "#l" and "#r"
respectively... It seems to me that they should return "ESC-#l" and "ESC-#r"
because when I press the "ESC" key before pressing the mouse button gnuemacs
does what I expected. Any solution ?
