	   I have become addicted to the 'tcsh' c-shell replacement on

   a sub-shell under GNUemacs, all of the lines are echoed, so that each line
   looks like:

	   ls^M
	   ls
	   ...

	   I believe that the tcsh is resetting the modes on the pty to
   enable echo, which it is supposed to do on a normal terminal line.

	   This does not happen with GNUemacs and the tcsh on my mips M/120,
   however, I am running 18.52 on the mips and 18.55 on the sun.  I have
   attempted to fix the problem by setting the variable "shell-file" to run
   the csh, but I have not succeeded in getting a different shell.

	   Any suggestions?

'stty -echo nl' works for me.

I run csh and 18.55 on Ultrix and suns.  The problem shows up after rlogins.
I'm using cmushell now, but I recall the same happened under shell.

There should be a more elegant solution.
