I believe that this is due to the terminal type of the console
changing from "cons25" to "xterm". If you fix your /etc/ttys to
reflect this things should be OK.
1:27:57pm argus(19): tty
/dev/pts/7
1:28:03pm argus(20): setenv TERM xterm
1:28:05pm argus(21): man man
MAN(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual
MAN(1)
ESC[1mNAMEESC[0m
ESC[1mman ESC[22m-- display online manual documentation pages
same thing going on. that's after switching every vty and the console
to xterm in /etc/ttys as well.
i'm kinda lost on this one. i have determined that somehow, it's the
pager... hang on a sec... lemme try vi.
vi seems to be working properly... it's not the termcap/terminfo...
the only thing causing this seems to be more and less, both.
when i pipe man into cat, everything gets properly interpreted by the
tty/vty/pty, when i use the pager, i get this crap....argh..
