shell-mode cannot count

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

In *shell* (tcsh 6.12.00) I often repeat a command by getting it back 
with M-p and than I change it a bit, for example adding a word or 
argument to it. When I then go to the end with C-e the cursor does not 
reach it. That's the reason why I do not press return at once -- since 
the end's not found it happens that only part of the command is 
executed and the remainder lands on the next line.

The continued description contains this too:

        If you want to make multiple shell buffers, rename the `*shell*' buffer
        using C-ࢮ or M-x rename-uniquely and start a new shell.

The character at C- is described as (C-u C-x =):

                character: ࢮ (04256, 2222, 0x8ae)
	preferred charset: mule-unicode-0100-24ff (Unicode characters of the 
range U+0100..U+24FF.)
               code point: 0x344E
                   syntax: w    which means: word
              buffer code: 0xE0 0xA2 0xAE
                file code: 0xE0 0xA2 0xAE (encoded by coding system utf-8)
                  display: no font available

This looks a bit strange to me ...
