Also, there's only one thing left (input-wise) that I can't get to work, and that's the 'delete' key (Fn+Backspace). I'm pretty certain that it's not a problem with Fn+Backspace failing to map to Delete, because my non-Mac i386 box has the same problem. Everything I read online keeps saying to muck with an .inputrc file (for bash, anyway), but I haven't been able to get it to work. Places I've looked have said to add this to .inputrc: "\e[3~": delete-char But this seems to have no effect (and I tried bind -f .inputrc in case my INPUTRC environment variable wasn't working). Is there something FreeBSD-specific I'm not seeing, or what? - Steven
