Hello, there. I was using a 10.3-RELEASE FreeBSD with the packaged fish 2.2.0 installed, without customization, and upgraded my system and packages to 11.0-RELEASE. fish were upgraded to 2.3.1, and I lost the previous default prompt, but that doesn't really matter. My main problem is that it lost support of arrows and backspace keys: whenever I try to use them, I get this: # Up arrow for autocompletion with the last command penegal@Aethelthryth-FreeBSD~/usr/home/penegal> [A # Right arrow for autocompletion with the last similar command, then # left arrow to correct input penegal@Aethelthryth-FreeBSD~/usr/home/penegal> ls[C[D Tab still functions as usual; backspace produces no result, so I have to Ctrl+C to erase the line and restart the typing from the start. As I also use fish as the root shell, the problem persists when using sudo su, but not with su -; the problem is also present when using fish from vt, and the su tweak works all the same. bash doesn't have this problem and responds as usual to these keys, as do fish over SSH connections, so it's not keyboard-related. I suspect a configuration that broke upon the upgrade, but am unsure about it, and the fish changelog doen't seem to have anything related, but I'm not accustomed to its internals and can have missed it. Does somebody have suggestions? Awaiting your answers, Regards. -- David Guyot Administrateur système, réseau et télécom / Sysadmin Europe Camions Interactive / Stockway Moulin Collot F-88500 Ambacourt 03 29 30 47 85
