This seems to be the way in several linux distributions, but for FreeBSD this breaks some programms like ircII where backspace is not working anymore. In a xterm in kde2 you see for 'stty -a' : erase = ^H; In the kde2 konsole you'll see erase = ^?; Change the backspace to 0x08 did solve the problem for my installations and ircII (from the ports) and EpicIV are now working again. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: cat patch-default.Keytab --- konsole/other/default.Keytab Thu Sep 21 08:47:59 2000 +++ konsole/other/default.Keytab.new Mon Dec 11 11:12:45 2000 @@ -36,7 +36,7 @@ # Backspace and Delete codes are preserving CTRL-H. -key Backspace : "\x7f" +key Backspace : "\x08" # cursor keys >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
