I cannot find any kind of such fix in any source or distribution. The problem still exist on Debian 7, and compiling the latest lxterminal source as of december 2013 still get to the same problem. The ALT n sequence is trapped by lxterminal and correctly managed to switch tabs, but the same sequence is then also passed to the input stream, causing any kind of possible problem. If a user want ALT n being passed to input stream, and underlying applications, he simply can disable the use of ALT n in preferences. But for the case we use ALT n to switch tabs, which is what most people do since decades, since the time of XENIX and UNIX 386, and since Linux exist in fact, the LXTERMINAL does not work correctly. Using control pageup-pagedown is not an option.
The issue for me is still well open. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1080116 Title: Alt+<n> shortcut sends extra characters when switching tabs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxterminal/+bug/1080116/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
