Hranicky) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: ttys (ptys?) and <Meta> Key in 2.2-960612-SNAP Date: 12 Sep 1996 10:58:15 -0400 Organization: University of Florida, Dept of CIS Lines: 16 Sender: jfh@waterspout Message-ID: <8kzq2vpypk.fsf@cise.ufl.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: waterspout.cise.ufl.edu X-Newsreader: Gnus v5.2.25/Emacs 19.31 When I did "stty -istrip" under 2.1, the <Meta> key seemed to work fine with tcsh: <Meta-Backspace> erased a word, <Meta-f> moved the cursor forward a word, <Meta-b> backed up the cursor a word, <Meta-p> did the search-backward-for-string function, etc. With 2.2-960612-SNAP, however, only <Meta-Backspace> seems to work, all the others give me "o"'s with umlats and the like. Has/will this be fixed in a later release? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Jim Hranicky, Systems Administrator UF/CISE Department | | E314E CSE Building Phone (904) 392-1057 | | jfh@cise.ufl.edu http://www.cis.ufl.edu/~jfh | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
