Emacs echoes everything to the screen in addition to the remote host echoing it and every line is followed my ^M. Is there a mode or process-filter which I can apply to get rid of this behaviour? Use "stty -echo nl" in the remote shell. The problem is that the remote system is echoing your input, which is rediculous since it is after-the-fact; and it is emitting RET LFD for end-of-line, which is standard for talking to terminals, but nonstandard for communication between Unix entities.
