Term Mode
---------

   The terminal emulator uses Term mode, which has two input modes.  In
line mode, Term basically acts like Shell mode; see Note: Shell Mode.
In char mode, each character is sent directly to the inferior subshell,
except for the Term escape character, normally `C-c'.

   To switch between line and char mode, use these commands:

`C-c C-k'
     Switch to line mode.  Do nothing if already in line mode.

`C-c C-j'
     Switch to char mode.  Do nothing if already in char mode.

   The following commands are only available in char mode:

`C-c C-c'
     Send a literal <C-c> to the sub-shell.

`C-c C-x'
     A prefix command to access the global <C-x> commands conveniently.
     For example, `C-c C-x o' invokes the global binding of `C-x o',
     which is normally `other-window'.
