   Does someone know how to run a shell under emacs without it echoing
   the characters I type (especially the ^Ms)?

The answer involves two things: 

1) Set emacs to run the standard csh.  I was using a fancy csh with
history editing, etc.  Do this by putting 
	(setq explicit-shell-file-name "csh")
in .emacs or by setting the environment var ESHELL to csh.  Some other
shells will probably work too, but csh is fine with me.

2) Issue the command "stty -onlcr -echo" to turn off the ^Ms and
echoing.  This will be done automatically if you put the command in
the file .emacs_csh.

Thanks to Andy Norman, Rich Cloutier, and Steven Nicoud,
