Thanks for the information. Isn't there any standard about is2? Is it a bug in rxvt-unicode, ncurses-base (which provides /lib/terminfo/r/rxvt-unicode, but perhaps following recommendations by rxvt-unicode developers) or screen (which sends "is2")? Even if one considers that screen does something bad and should be fixed, the incompatibility between rxvt-unicode and other terminals (xterm, gnome-terminal) can be annoying. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arénaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
