(defun bash ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((binary-process-input t)
        (binary-process-ouput nil))
    (shell)))


I saved the above from another mail poster.  I don't use emacs but this 
question appears quite often.  The problem is that bash is expecting a 
\n only on the input line and is receiving a \r\n from emacs.  It has 
been reported that the above function will take care of the \r and give 
bash only the \n.
