No, just a configuration mess! Basicly there are 2 different kind of escape sequences: linux.keytab:key Home : "\E[1~" linux.keytab:key End : "\E[4~" vt100.keytab:key Home : "\E[H" vt100.keytab:key End : "\E[F" xterm in 3.3.6 used the linux bindings as default (see /etc/X11/Xresources/xterm in unstable) Try Alt-F1 and cat<return><home><end>. In 4.* xterm changed looks like it was deceided to be more 'vt100 emulation'. To enhance confusion, konsoles default.Keytab despite called 'xterm (Xfree 4.x.x)' still use 3.3.6 binding -> break home/end in mc (I've a real (well, real debian) xterm.keytab but upstream did not comment on it). Working on testing with X 4.1 using konsoles vt100 bindings mc works locally but ssh to stable with X 3.3.6 -> mc ignores Home/End. Switching to linux bindings breaks Home/End in mc on testing but slogin to stable and run mc you have working Home/End. So two 'solutions': Change keyboard settings in konsole depending if you work on stable or unstable. Or hack a keytab file and and e.g., Key Home+Control and Key End+Control to emit the second type of Home-End escape sequence.
