Right; screen has always done this, since the terminal it presents to subshells (true ANSI X3.64 with colors) is different from the terminal you used to run it. I used to use screen on old z19 terminals so I could run programs that hardcoded ANSI escape sequences in them. What's important is that the TERM you have before you run screen matches your terminal/emulator as closely as possible. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
