similar to: [Bug 2477] New: backspace in interactive session does not delete multi-byte Unicode characters correctly

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

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. Setup: R

Hey all, The IUTF8 tty mode support added to the client in 7.3 unfortunately appears to have broken interop with a handful of noncompliant server implementations that immediately close the connection when they are sent an opcode that they know nothing about, rather than ignore it. Setting the value to 0 is not enough: its mere presence regardless of value is enough to cause the server to bomb

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

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

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"

I am using sftp which comes with OpenSSH_3.8.1p1 Debian-8.sarge.4, OpenSSL 0.9.7e 25 Oct 2004 I noticed backspace is not working. Couild someone tell me if this is fixed in a newer package please? Also, would it be possible for sftp --version to be implemented? also sftp --V. Likewise ssh --version is not implemented either. None of the flags are listed when i type ssh --help, or sftp --help

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.

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.

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"

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]]

Hi , when i connect to sshd , the session doesnt allow me to issue ^C ^Z, it doesnt work.

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

I have a new APC Smart-UPS SUA2200RM2U. I've had no success with the manufacturer's PowerChute software and smart signaling, so I have decided to try NUT. The smartups driver can't make contact through the serial port. Since this is rack-mounted, it comes with a 940-1524 serial cable. As far as I can tell, this is supposed to work with smart signaling. Here's my ups.conf:

Thanks for these explanations - it all makes sense, that is, the default behavior for a process that does not capture SIGQUIT is to quit and perform a core dump (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_signal#SIGQUIT). Then the remaining question, as Luke says, is: should R handle this signal? For instance, in interactive mode, SIGQUIT could maybe bring up: Possible actions: 1: abort (with core

I run WBridge5 (French version) under wine-1.1.1 on FreeBSD-7.0. It runs ok except for every UNICODE character is replaced by the little box. Also in some message boxes symbols that obviously should be some French characters that aren't part of normal Latin alphabet are replaced with Chinese characters. How to make UNICODE to display correctly? Thank you, Yuri
