Probably one of:
-you've got the wrong terminal type set, or
-the termcap/terminfo entry for your terminal is wrong.
Looks like some terminal command sequence that is being emitted contains
a letter 'c' that is appearing on the screen instead of performing some
function. Most likely that's because there's a command being sent to the
terminal that it doesn't recognize, and THAT's most likely because of one
of the two above items.
