RE: Q on shell-mode-map

    Drew is referring to this line in shell.el:
    
        (setq shell-mode-map (nconc (make-sparse-keymap) comint-mode-map))
    
    The manual says
    
        The proper way to construct a keymap with a parent is to use
        `set-keymap-parent'; if you have code that directly constructs a
        keymap with a parent, please convert the program to use
        `set-keymap-parent' instead.
    
    so maybe that should be cleaned up.
    
Ah, good catch.
