For instance, in a 'screen' terminal, I am getting a '~' character and am having to hit CTRL-h manually to backspace. I've checked my 'rxvt' terms and the TERM var is set to 'xterm'. The TERM var in 'screen' is set to 'screen'. When i'm in a normal 'rxvt' or 'xterm', backspace works fine. --Chris -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Christopher Taylor Technical Director Earth Broadcasting Corporation (EBC) 415 East 200 South Salt Lake City, Utah 84111 phone: (801) 322-3949 cell: (801) 541-8287 email: chris@thedial.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
