Package: zile
Version: 2.0.1-1
Severity: important

I do not know if this is a general problem with all terminals but it
at least affects xterm. Since upgrading to the latest version of zile
on sarge this morning I've been suffering from annoying problems
related to the cursor keys.

I get random 'A' (up arrow) and 'B' (down arrow) characters inserted
into the file every now and again. When using the left arrow I get 'D'
characters and with the right arrow key I get random 'C' characters
inserted occasionally. This is causing me no-end of errors in my
server config files.

I can reproduce this by holding down any arrow key for a short while
in a new blank buffer. I have never seen this behaviour before with
zile on sarge in an xterm so I reckon the latest release has problems
with the cursor keys somewhere.

Thanks in advance,

Stephen Quinney
