  22 ;;; Commentary:
  23
  24 ;; At the moment, eshell is stream-based in its interactive input and
  25 ;; output.  This means that full-screen commands, such as "vi" or
  26 ;; "lynx", will not display correctly.  These are therefore thought of
  27 ;; as "visual" programs.  In order to run these progrem under Emacs,
  28 ;; Eshell uses the term.el package, and invokes them in a separate
  29 ;; buffer, giving the illusion that Eshell itself is allowing these
  30 ;; visual processes to execute.

  40 the `term' package, which comes with Emacs.  This package handles most
