I have to agree with jik on this one. I don't want to second guess
terminal drivers, since they are pretty gross usually, and there may be
one where this is not correct. Let's let the driver do the job it is
supposed to and let's interface with it in the way we are supposed to.
Hasn't there been enough examples of a program trying to be too smart
that it is actually doing the wrong thing, simply because they tried
re-implementing the library/operating-system feature? Besides, it will
certainly help eliminate the extra ^M from being displayed in emacs
shell mode.
