[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hello all,

Asynchronous commands called via shell-command, for example:

 (shell-command "apt-get update &")

fill the buffer *Async Shell Command Output* with Ctrl-Ms, which I'm
sure is not what's intended.

My patch (attached) fixes this by using make-comint-in-buffer, rather
than start-process, to call the asynchronous process.

HTH,

Sebastian
