Package: pdksh Version: 5.2.14-16 Severity: normal
Please let me know if I am doing something wrong (and how to actually do this if I am), but when using pdksh in emacs mode, I cannot properly bind my delete key to 'delete-char-forward'. My delete key is '^[[3~' (ie 'ESC [ 3 ~'), therefore terminfo et al are setup correctly. So I try: $ bind | grep delete-char-forward $ $ bind '^[[3~'=delete-char-forward $ bind | grep delete-char-forward ^X3 = delete-char-forward This looks good at first, except that if I use the delete key, it does delete forward, but then adds a '~' in its place (ie, I type in 'abcde', move the cursor to the 'c', press delete, and end up with 'ab~de'). The bind took the '^[[3' portion, but not the full '^[[3~'. I am at a loss on how to do this. 'man pdksh' say that 'some' mutli-character strings are supported with the bind command, but either this one isn't supported (should be IMO), or I just don't know what I am doing (very possible!). This affects the console as well as X. I do use gnome-terminal, so I can use a non-default, gnome-terminal workaround of sending '^H' when delete is pressed, and bind that instead. I googled for hours, but couldn't find anything (again, maybe I am just missing something).
