similar to: sftp backspace not working (OpenSSH_3.8.1p1 Debian-8.sarge.4)

I setup a ssh chroot jail following this[1] guide. It works for my user to login, use ls and use scp which is all I really want. I do have a problem I cannot solve: when connected and navigating the filesystem, the backspace key actually moves the cursor forward and does not delete what I type. I may have found a hint from some googling that readline will read in /etc/inputrc on login but if

Maybe it was always sending Delete and I didn't notice it, but I have had the following in my .tcshrc file for ages (without realizing it): bindkey -b ^? i-search-back Before the update to 4.4, hitting the backspace key at the shell prompt deleted the previous character. Now it activates the search backwards function as instructed to do so by the bindkey directive. The

Howdy! I have a problem that's similar to one discussed earlier on the list: When not in xterm all the backspace and cursor-movements and stuff are working well. Only when I start R in an xterm window backspace appears as ^H and so on. What can I do?

I have the following gnome terminal profile settings: Backspace = ASCII DEL Delete Key = Escape Sequence If the logged in session in the terminal window is my own user id then the delete key does nothing. If however, I su -l in the same terminal window then the delete key removes the character under the cursor and left shifts the rest of the line. I am fairly confident that the delete

Hi All, I'm not very good with Vim. I noticed when it is in INSERT Mode, the backspace key no longer works. How to do I configure it so that it will work with the backspace key? Any ideas? Thanks Mary

Hi All, I upgraded to OS X 10.7 on my laptop and when I try to ssh into my servers and do edits it seems my backspace is now weird. When I backspace it skips all around, inserts what looks to be special characters, etc. If I save and go back in the file edited right, but due to all the inserted garbage and skipping around of the cursor I cant tell at that time if what I did worked. I dont recall

Hi, when mixing newline and backspace characters I get the following output (see below). In the second call, the backspace character is simply not applied. Is this normal behaviour? Thank you. > cat("abc\b") ab> cat("abc\b\n") abc > [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I'm using Rcmdr version 1.4-10 with R version 2.9.0 under Vista x64. A standard editing convention under Windows is that alt+backspace is a keyboard shortcut for "undo". I often find myself hitting the [alt] and [backspace] keys while editing scripts in Rcmdr. However, this causes the Rcmdr GUI to go into a crazy mode where the menu keeps flashing and the GUI is unresponsive.

Hi folks [Please CC me, I am not on the list] I am here at a customer who have this in profile (.cshrc): stty erase "^H" kill "^?" intr "^C" Backspace clears the hole command line. How is the CentOS default? kind regards Sven

Interesting. Not what I expected. This is Ruby 1.8.6. > irb irb(main):001:0> str = "abx\bc" => "abx\bc" irb(main):002:0> str.length => 5 irb(main):003:0> s = str.sub(/.\b/, '''') => "ab\bc" irb(main):004:0> s.length => 4 irb(main):005:0> s = str.sub(/.\x08/, '''') => "abc"

While in centos3, using vim and clicking the backspace I see the ^? character instead of it actually deleteing the previous character. In centos4 this was not a problem. I have rad about remapping keys and such, but can someone tell me what the difference between centos4 and centos3 is so I can make the change to make it work on centos3.

Is this checking of password aging in /etc/passwd should be done there or moved to auth-passwd.c. which would be the right place?

Hi, It is a shame I feel obliged to write this email. I sent a single email with a possible bug in it, asking if it was working in a newer release. I got 3 spam emails from mindrot.org. Two asking me to confirm, and then when I was forced to confirm I got another auto-responder spam. If I had wanted the 3rd spam I would have set "return receipt". I got this (below) auto-responder

When I am running R, the backspace key deletes the whole word instead of one character. Before I start R, and after I exit R, the backspace key works as it should in my xterm terminal window. This gets really annoying since I make a lot of mistakes while typing and don't always want to retype the whole word. This behavior only occurs while running R. Any ideas on how to fix this.

Hi, My Delete key does not work anymore in gnome-terminal. I have a keyboardless server, so I think this may be the problem. When I press the Delete key, I get the ~ caracter printed. I deleted all the ~/.g* files, in order to have a clean and default gnome installation but still, no luck. This is my locale: LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1 LC_CTYPE="en_US.ISO-8859-1"
