I'm still affected on byobu 5.21 in Ubuntu Quantal. Looks like there's a duplicate here, as well: https://bugs.launchpad.net/byobu/+bug/1045070

Line 35: [ "$BYOBU_BACKEND" = "tmux" ] && keybindings="$keybindings.tmux" Line 40: grep -qs "^escape" "$keybindings" && bind_to="emacs" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/887387 Title: byobu emacs mode escape key fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/byobu/+bug/887387/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
