Sounds like it stopped recognising arrow keys' ANSI sequences ("<esc>[A"
and "<esc>[B"). Wouldda thought the <esc> would break out of insert
mode, but...

Uhh, sounds like what it's supposta do, no? ??
Is there a problem with actually changing the text, or just what's
displayed? Dunno the setting offhand, but a slow-redraw will mark to
the end of the text to be replaced, eg, if you were to change to the end
of the line, you'd still see the whole line, but with a '$' where the
last character would be, vs erasing all the text and just leaving the
insert-cursor in its place. I find the latter disquieting, and would
rather *see* what I'm replacing, but never really paid too much
attention to which settings do what. I'm complacent that way... :D
