The following reply was made to PR bin/151229; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Devin Teske <dteske@vicor.com> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, bruce@cran.org.uk Cc: Devin Teske <dteske@vicor.com> Subject: Re: bin/151229: sysinstall(8) - shift-tab doesn't work as expected Date: Tue, 09 Nov 2010 09:46:59 -0800 This appears to be related to terminal emulation settings provided by /etc/termcap as cons25 works fine while everything else (xterm*, vt*, ans*) all seem to have problems. On the console (where TERM=cons25), shift+tab works as expected. Almost anywhere else -- via ssh for example where TERM=xterm -- shift +tab is not recognized/emulated so libdialog gets the leading escape character out of the sequence produced by shift+tab (ESC+[Z), and therefore it exits the menu. It should be noted that all libdialog-based programs are effected, including dialog(1), not just sysinstall(8). -- Devin Teske dteske@vicor.com
