I would like to start a few shells, and set their directories from my .emacs. Opening them is easy:
;; run a few shells.
(shell "*shell5*")
(shell "*shell6*")
(shell "*shell7*")
But I would like to specify their directory, too.

The following works for me
(let ((default-directory "/path/to/whereever/"))
(shell "*shell1*"))
(shell "*shell5*")
(with-current-buffer "*shell5*"
(goto-char (point-max))
(insert "cd dir")) ;;for example
(comint-send-input nil t) ;; enter
For now I have this, its need some improvement I think. When I use in my emacs its causes an error, but does what you want. I will try to figure why.
