Up through FreeBSD 8.x, the ttyvN consoles had a TERM setting of cons25. On FreeBSD 9.n, it appears to be xterm for ttyv0, but it's still cons25 for ttyv1-ttyv8 (even though they all appear to act like xterms). Not surprisingly, this leads to less than desirable results when trying to run vi (or other such programs) on ttyv1 through ttyv8, unless you remember to setenv TERM xterm.
Why did we change from cons25 to xterm? How can we get all the ttyvNs to get the correct TERM setting? -- George Mitchell _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
