Since you are using SBClient, you could use /TCL rather than Real TCL (0) and the problem will go away if your emulation is correct. Insert at Real TCL will give a control character issue.

I don't use the insert key when at TCL because I just enter 'I' at the command prompt when I am in the editor and there is never a reason for insert key to be pressed otherwise. I am not sure how to reassign the key but I don't think that I want to do that because I do use the insert key when I am in the full-screen editor or SB+ screen. I went to the Setup tab and changed the terminal type to VT220 and the editor worked like it should but when I changed it back to Wyse60 it had the same old problem. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Woodward, Bob Sent: Friday, December 07, 2012 2:40 PM To: U2 Users List Subject: Re: [U2] SB Client question I've never had this problem but I'd look at the terminal emulation you're using. You might try using a different terminal type then see if you can replicate the problem. I would imagine you don't use the insert key since it seems to mess you up (only at TCL???) so maybe redefine just that key? Good luck.

Well, after I do this my backspace will no longer work. What I see on the screen when I enter the backspace key is the letters to the left are displayed to the right of the cursor preceded by a space. I can enter the replacement character(s) and they will work but when I look at the line to check it the line will always have: '*--:' appended to the end of the line. It does not matter what I do after this to try to get back to what was working before. (I do plenty of backspacing so this is not a small problem.) The only thing that works is to logoff and then log back on. This will reset the editor to work correctly again. I have tried hitting the 'Insert' key again, thinking that it would switch back to the original mode, to no avail. Has this happened to anyone else? Or am I the only lucky one with this problem? If it has happened to you, do you have another fix besides logging off the system?
