It sounds like your PTERM KILL is set to the @ char.

Do a PTERM KILL {ctrl X}, then see if you can do your select.

Something in the LOGIN or ./profile could be setting stty/PTERM settings on 
you.  If it's only one account then I'd suspect the LOGIN paragraph for that 
account.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [U2] Getting CR instead of @ at colon prompt


In an account that I made with (IIRC) makeudt, whenver I attempt to type
the @ symbol, the cursor jumps to the beginning of the line.

So it's rather hard to SELECT FILE.NAME with @ID ...

Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?  I know we've run
across it before, but apparently I didn't write down what we did to make
it stop. 

Thanks,
Wendy Smoak
