This is a feature, not a bug. As the Emacs NEWS file explains it: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *** Comint now by default interprets some carriage-control characters. Comint now removes CRs from CR LF sequences, and treats single CRs and BSs in the output in a way similar to a terminal (by deleting to the beginning of the line, or deleting the previous character, respectively). This is achieved by adding `comint-carriage-motion' to the `comint-output-filter-functions' hook by default. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
