Re: [dev] [st] zsh and del/pos1 key
This works for Del in bash.
But it doesn't fix Pos1 or Del in zsh.
You can find the information in the zsh FAQ
(http://zsh.sourceforge.net/FAQ/zshfaq03.html#l25) about how get it working
with terminals with smkx and rmkx sequences.
I also add the patch to the st FAQ with the information.

Subject: [PATCH] Add information about zsh keymap solution
In the FAQ you can find some information about how get your bugsy bash be
able of reading Del key, and this patch adds the same information for the
also bugsy zsh. It also change the echo command by a standard printf without
special characters, so it is possible copy and paste the commands to the
shell.

+You can read in the zsh FAQ (http://zsh.sourceforge.net/FAQ/zshfaq03.html#l25):

+ It should be noted that the O / [ confusion can occur with other keys

+ Unfortunately, the key sequences given there typically apply to the

+
+ function zle-line-init () { echoti smkx }
+ function zle-line-finish () { echoti rmkx }
+ zle -N zle-line-init
+ zle -N zle-line-finish

Re: [dev] [st] zsh and del/pos1 key
Roberto E. Vargas Caballero: http://lists.suckless.org/dev/1212/13848.html This works for Del in bash. But it doesn't fix Pos1 or Del in zsh. Even echo ^[?1h^[= /dev/tty command? (^[ means \01b, you can get it using ^v Esc) In the thread we agreed that we should point the bug to the programs which don't handle correctly the keypad, so you could send a patch request to zsh. Best regards,
[dev] [st] zsh and del/pos1 key
For me, in st (current git) the Pos1 and Del keys don't work in an interactive zsh. End and Backspace work though. In bash, Pos1 works, but Del doesn't. In vim, everything works. Can anyone reproduce this? Any hint on how to debug/fix? -- ilf Über 80 Millionen Deutsche benutzen keine Konsole.

Looks like it can be found with git bisect. Haven't noticed it before, used ^D all the time.
