*Follow up:*
shell-mode shows
TERM="emacs"
TERMCAP="emacs:co#79:tc=unknown:"
and shell-mode does show a bash echo per-keystroke.
term-mode shows
TERM="eterm"
TERMCAP=$'eterm:li#23:co#91:cl=[a long string of escape sequences]'
and term-mode doesn't echo until <CR>.
I don't understand the "$'" construction in TERMCAP="$' .... '"
but somewhere in the information above is the answer to why I don't get the
keystrokes.
