* Daniel Martin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) spake thusly: [ the answer I was looking for snipped ] Thank you very much indeed. Yes, I was using vt100, yes, jed and slrn are not affected -- only mutt, and sure, the bad thing went away as soon as I fixed terminfo entry.
That's what I get for being a command-line freak: everyone else is using xterms and xterm termcaps seem to work fine between linux, irix and solaris. I guess I have to sit down and set up linux termcaps on our sun/sgi boxen -- using vt100 as I do now is clearly sub-optimal.
