Yes, this is true. But if I put a line in muttrc that says
bind pager \e[F bottom
where \e[F is what vi's ^V put in (with \e instead of ^[) it should work
whatever the terminfo. Or am I missing something?
Mutt keeps saying "Key is not bound. Press '?' for help.", but *what*
key is missing? Is there a way of knowing that? Maybe mutt should print
the unbound key in the message.
Ciao,
