I don't know if this is the right forum, but I really want to make this
work, and I don't know where else to ask, and it involves getting the
fink-installed tools working for me, so...

Summary: I need to be able to run my s/w devel environment from inside Terminal.

I'm getting killed by things like:

I can't get home/end/pageup/pagedown passed to the shell or curses
applications.

If I do a ":sp start-of-file-name" and type TAB to do file name completion, I get ^I
displayed.

If I do a ":sp" I get two windows, but ^w^w should switch between them,
and it silently does nothing.

^u at a command line prompt does nothing.


I have tried iTerm. It appears to have many of the same problems
(+display bugs, +segved 1 minute after running the latest version).

So far, xterm is the only thing that seems to work for me.


Is it what people are using?

The problems I have with xterm is I can find no way to switch between
running xterms from the keyboard (this is the window managers job, and
quartz-wm doesn't have any (documented) way to do this). I really don't
want to have to wave a mouse to get between windows. Is there another
way?

Any help, or pointers would be *very* appreciated.

Also, is anybody running konqueror? Safari has some fairly irritating
habbits, and I'd like to bring my bookmark file across from old box.

Thanks,
Sam
