Hi Pavel Roskin.
Thank you for your response. Here are clarifications you asked: "Unpredictable moments" means exactly just that - I can't determine the moments in which they will not work. They work sometimes. To be more precise, they _don't_ work sometimes - all the time they work fine with these exceptions which are not too rare. I seen that this problem appears especially (and precise) when I keep the arrow keys pressed for a few seconds to scroll vertically or to go to a specific word in a line. Sincerely, for the purpose of modifying text files, I had to switch to another editor - jed, and that is incovenient to me. No, it cant't be that I pressed escape and then the arrow keys. No way. "xterm -v" give me: "XFree86 3.3.6(88c)". In "rxvt" this problem does not exist! mc is working fine in rxvt! And I seen that when rxvt is running (with or without mc in it) the mc in a xterm window stop making these nasty things, even when rxvt is run as a normal user and mc is run as root in an xterm window! I remember that I seen some warnings when I did "tic xterm.ti": > "xterm.ti", line 7, terminal 'xterm-basic': enter_bold_mode but no >exit_attribute_mode > "xterm.ti", line 7, terminal 'xterm-basic': enter_reverse_mode but no >exit_attribute_mode > "xterm.ti", line 112, terminal 'xterm': alias vs100 multiply defined. I don't know what all these means and I did't try to understand these messages. I have no ideea what to do to reproduce the bug (if it really is one; maybe it is only some misconfigured thing somewhere, in terminfo or xterm or something). I know only what I did when I build the mc from sources: I compiled it, I install it and then I did "tic xterm.ti" and added the resources form the file "xterm.ad" to my "~/.Xdefaults" and, obviously merged them in the database. And I run WindowMaker (if that counts). I did't try mc in the console. Thanks again for your interest. Please excuse my english mistakes (especially the grammar ones).
