in thread problem: emacs interactive shell and cpan

I assumed wrongly that the problem was both with emacs and xemacs and used emacs as the generic term. But emacs works as I want while xemacs does not. So all what I said before and below do apply only for xemacs

What I want is ^M to wrap the caret to the beginning of the line, so that the material that come after the ^M overwrites the previous material. Anyway the code of shell-strip-ctrl-m is certainly a good starting point. Thanks.
