Well I have just built emacs_18.57 on my HP/UX 9000/822s and
it's running wonderful with no problems at all.  But since I am
new to the emacs environment I do have one question:

When running a shell in a buffer (M-x shell   or  M-x terminal-emulator)
is there any way to have the buffer setup for vt100 or vt220 
emulation of control characters?  I am thinking of using the
buffer for seperate "sessions" on other machines....and with rlogin
or telnet from emacs, or the shell buffer, certain ctrl chars
like 'clear' for example are not handled.  Am I off my rocker
or is this just an "impossible wish"?

It is quite probable I am missing why this can't be done, but
if possible I can hack a new TERMCAP or TERM setting but am
not sure how emacs would be best suited.

Thanx for all tips/explanations and info.
