This should be well-known, but I couldn't find anything in the list
archives and bugzilla.
In xterm under XFree86 4.x the prompt is "prefixed" with a "^O", so that
instead of e.g. "goofy:~ " one sees "^Ogoofy:~" (shell is zsh with
PS1='%m:%~%# ').
AFAIK, this problem appeared at least since RedHat 6.2, i.e. *before*
XFree 4.x, but it was caused by inclusion of 4.x's termcap entries into
termcap/terminfo. It is still there in 4.5.54 under RH7.1.
Can anything be done to this? I haven't seen this problem in any other
apps.
