I have the latest current tree as of 12 hours ago or so.
When I run pkg_manage under X in an xterm it now tries to run with
color (in some sort of graphics mode?) and crashes displaying the
following at the command prompt.

;1;1;112;112;1;0x^[[2;1;1;112;112;1;0x^[[2;1;1;112;112;1;0x^[[2;1;1;112;112;1;0x;1;1;112;112;1;0x;1;1;112;112;1;0x;1;1;112;112;1;0x;1;1;112;112;1;0x

Has anyone messed with this code? It doesn't look like it has been
touched in years.

On a side note I am currently working on a better ports management
system. Is anyone currently doing this? I don't want to duplicate work.
I was thinking about rewriting the src/usr.sbin/pkg_install source but I
am just writing some port management commands in bourne shell. It is
much easier that way.
