Obviously it's no huge thing, but why am I seeing the \033]2...\007 string after 'cd'ing? Before I installed the port, my .tcshrc set the prompt to "%n@%m:%~%# " and I didn't get the literal string. Now it only shows on the first prompt after I 'cd', and after that the prompt seems to work right. Obviously the port sets something else, but before I start digging, has anyone else solved this? -- Roger
