[ESS-bugs] ess-mode 5.3.5; M-x R messes up RET in new shells

[Stephen Eglen]

Dear Tim, 
I just took a quick look at this.  I do not regulary use windows, so
downloaded R 2.6.1 and the version of Emacs provided by Vicent Goulet
that comes preinstalled with  ESS (linked to from ess.r-project.org)

In short, I can't reproduce the bug.  I don't have splus on this
machine so what I did was:

emacs

M-x shell

(checked shell worked okay by "dir"; all fine.)
(kill shell buffer)

M-x R
(R 2.6.1 starts fine; getwd() works fine.)

M-x shell
New shell appears, and "dir" works.

Like Martin has suggested, might this be something to do with bash?
can you try it without bash working in M-x shell?
best wishes,

Stephen
