Re: Aqua: line editing in shell mode broken

[Steve Wainstead]

Hi Andrew,

You were right about how it does this on all platforms now.. last week 
I finally got hold of a spare box to put GNU/Linux on, did a 
checkout/compile, and tested it there. The behavior is now the same for 
both the x86 build and the osx build.

However, for the default Emacs with Red Hat 8 and the default Emacs 
with osx, you can still edit/run commands on any line in the shell 
buffer... so I need to report this higher up the chain. (Any hints?)
