similar to: script/console cursor goes crazy sometimes on XP

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.

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?

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 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

Listmates, I have an interesting problem with compiz on openSuSE 10.3. On a 4 user system, compiz loads with a blank white desktop. The desktop begins to load and you can see the desktop background, then it goes completely blank white. The mouse cursor is visible, but nothing else. You can spin the cube, no caps are present, but the mouse is non responsive otherwise (no right-click response or

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 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

Greetings! I have an issue with an R editor (namely Tinn-R). A few weeks ago all of a sudden the backspace, enter and direction keys were not working. I updated Tinn-R to the newest version but still no sollution. After this I tried reinstalling it (prior to that I removed Tinn-R and deleted all the "leftovers" manually) and still no change. In every other execution (e.g. when I save a

Is there a way to show some bits of information in the menu, like Syslinux version, MAC address and IP address? When the menu is loaded at startup, this information is quickly erased and is not easily readable. -- Alexandre Blanchette <blanalex at gmail.com>

Hi, I don't really expect this to get fixed but I have an issue and I was hoping someone would be able to at least diagnose it. I have a X41T Thinkpad. It is a tablet pc and when I have a full screen app (i.e. game) open the digitizer pen goes nuts. The cursor tries to go off the screen. Holding it perfectly still will cause the mouse to glide slowly across the screen while moving it

This has been on my mind for a long time, and it's time I ask. Every version of WINE I have ever used Wine cmd in has this "bug", but I don't know if it's Wine's fault, or terminal's fault. Or if WINE cmd can at least be made more compatible with terminal. If I open terminal (only tried this in Linux) and run wine's cmd, I get wine's cmd in the terminal. If I

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

I am trying to get my xterm window under gnome to open with large fonts, with light green foreground and dark green background. I have the following .Xdefaults file contents: $ cat .Xdefaults !

Hi all wine users and developers, I have a touch question which I have been searching answers for quite a long time to configure wine but still have not solved yet. Wine is the only Windows program simulator running in Linux which I use, however one thing annoying me is that currently the cursor is always blinking in the GUI. For example, the editplus running in wine. Something it really drives
