I've got a hack in /usr/local/etc/screenrc that reads: # #termcapinfo xterm 'kh=\E[1~:kI=\E[2~:kD=\E[3~:kH=\E[4~:kP=\E[H:kN=\E[6~' termcapinfo xterm 'kh=\E[1~:kI=\E[2~:kH=\E[4~:kP=\E[H:kN=\E[6~' termcapinfo xterm 'kD=' The kD= entry is the one that causes the backspace problem in my case. -- Jonathan Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Power corrupts, Absolute Power is pretty neat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
