  30   "This module causes visual commands (e.g., 'vi') to be executed by
  31 the `term' package, which comes with Emacs.  This package handles most
  32 of the ANSI control codes, allowing curses-based applications to run
  33 within an Emacs window.  The variable `eshell-visual-commands' defines
  34 which commands are considered visual in nature."

  38 ;;; Commentary:
  39
  40 ;; At the moment, eshell is stream-based in its interactive input and
  41 ;; output.  This means that full-screen commands, such as "vi" or
  42 ;; "lynx", will not display correctly.  These are therefore thought of
  43 ;; as "visual" programs.  In order to run these progrem under Emacs,
  44 ;; Eshell uses the term.el package, and invokes them in a separate
  45 ;; buffer, giving the illusion that Eshell itself is allowing these
  46 ;; visual processes to execute.
