Please tell me how I can specify my terminal type in a subshell. Whenever I run "M-x shell", my computer would warn me that the term type is unknown, and editing disabled. I checked the environment with "printenv" and saw TERM=emacs & TERMCAP=emacs:col#80:tc=unknown:. I tried changing them with "eval `tset -s vt100`", but only TERM is changed, not TERMCAP. Thanks ahead of time. Thao
