Hi misc,
i have a problem with my terminal, st [1]. Just for the record, i am using the
latest -current snapshot (but the problem existed before). I had an unrelated
problem with zsh, where my HOME and DEL key were not working properly (the
related thread on the st-mailing list can be found at [2]). I was pointed to
the zsh FAQ [3], where they suggest to enable (and later disable) the
"application mode" in zsh using the terminfo commands "smkx" and "rmkx". Now,
here's the problem: st ships a terminfo file (st.info), which is installed with
tic (in my case, systemwide). The original st.info contains entries for
{r,s}mkx, but when i query the system terminfo database with 'infocmp -1 st',
no entries for {r,s}mkx are found:
% egrep '[rs]mkx' st.info
rmkx=\E[?1l\E>,
smkx=\E[?1h\E=,
% infocmp -1 st-256color | egrep '[rs]mkx' | wc -l
0
How can this be? Is this a bug or am i missing something? Any help much
appreciated.
Best,
Nils
