Okay...  This problem only appears to be in Eterm, hence the subject.

Most any program that uses stdin for input after it's initial invocation
will not use enter to accept input when using Eterm.  The shell in use
doesn't seem to matter, only Eterm.  i.e. sh, tcsh, zsh and Xterm Konsole
and GNOME Terminal have all been looked over.  It only happens at command
line prompts, so vi(1) and pine(1) and other programs that use their own
input methods work fine.

my output looks like this:

xavier 2:10pm ~> su
s/key 98 lo81206
Password:load: 2.72  cmd: su 76924 [ttyin] 0.01u 0.02s 0% 604k

I can get input through, but only by using ^D^D.

I've tried setting different TERMs for possible differences.  So, my
question is:  what can I do to get Eterm to accept ^M.  Is it a console
setting, environment variable or what?  I could switch to using a
different Xterm, but I do so love purty pictures :).
