Tangentially related... 

*term* looks nice too (M-x term instead of M-x shell). This `term' is like a 
more literal terminal embedded in Emacs. Even key-bindings are hijacked. 
(Amusingly, readline utility gives bash some Emacs-like key-bindings.) In a 
stackoverflow question, it is pointed out that *term* versus *shell*, you miss 
out on features like isearch (C-s, C-r etc.). Then, switching around a lot is 
hindered, since C-x o (other-window) is hijacked (but the suggested windmove 
binding still works).
