Many years ago I had this problem with a particular release of AIX.  It was
a long time ago and the details are fuzzy in my mind (if they ever were
clear) but it had to do with AIX interpreting the @ as 'attention'.  I
believe that as a work-around I was able to run scripts in SQLPlus by using
@@ in front of the script name.

The DELETE and BACKSPACE keys were also messed up.   There was one other
key also.  I just remember that there were 4 that needed to be reset.

Cannot for the life of me remember what the command was though I do
remember that it was very simple and straightforward.

Somebody has remapped the value that is expressed when the ' @ ' key is
pressed.  A session trace file, from a Secure CRT emulation, shows that a
hex 0d 0a, is being expressed instead.  As a result, we can't run SQL
scripts from Sql Plus or svrmgrl.

This "feature" happens on an Oracle Unix account that a consultant was
working with last week.  The production Unix accounts are all working OK.

I think I need to look at .login, .profile and several envnrionment scripts
that are executed at login, but I don't know what I'm looking for.  I just
need to get this key mapped back to "normal".

Any help and / or ideas?
