I've dropped all the bindkey statements from my .screenrc, as they were causing other troubles when using other applications (e.g. vim), as predicted.

This plays a lot nicer, and seems to produce the desired effect. -- Backspace key in GNU Screen not detected correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/29787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
