Yes, as has been noted elsewhere in the thread, the problem occurs after changes were made in the termcap description of xterm. Those changes were made to RELENG_4 on 2003-04-29 (which was after 4.8-RELEASE) so it should be reproducable on all versions of 4-STABLE after that date. (And, as also has been noted, it is arguable that there is not a bug in termcap, but rather that the changes uncovered a bug in /usr/games/hack. The bug being that hack(6) relies on long-obsolete termcap capabilities, which it shouldn't do.) -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
