That would be nice, but again, I haven't found a decent terminal  
emulator for emacs.

term.el is severely lacking, even to the point where the first thing I  
have to do when m-x term'ing is set PS1='$ ' because otherwise my  
custom PS1 will take up the screen because it doesn't recognise OR  
remove ansi escapes that I happen to use to colour my prompt (helps me  
pick out the information).

And then I'm not convinced about term navigation either. Frankly, I  
prefer good ol' bash.
