This bug is still in Jaunty. It is shameful that any terminal emulator in this day and age still have BS/DEL issues.
Essentially, xfce-terminal's "Auto" settings do not work properly with GNU screen, among other applications. xterm generates ASCII DEL when Backspace is pressed and ANSI ESC[3~ when Delete is pressed. xfce- terminal does not do this so applications that use xterm get confused. xfce-terminal's "auto" should mimic xterm's behaviour if that is what the TERM variable is going to default to. -- backspace doesn't work in screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263042 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
