Hi Bram,

forwarding a bug report from the Debian bug tracking system.

A user reported that when run inside 'screen', some keys are not
working, with the peculiar example of the '/' on the numeric keypad. The
TERM environment variable is set to 'screen' for shell running inside
screen. Changing it to 'linux' before running vim fixes the problem.

I can reproduce here with vim 7.0.094.

Do you think this is a bug in vim or rather in ncurses or something
else?

Many thanks in advance,

Cheers.
