Hi, Hi,

I feel it is obvious to press ctrl-left_arrow, or ctrl-right_arrow, to move the cursor a word left or right. Here in Alpine it works, for instance. But in jstar it produces rubish characters at the cursor:

some word5D5D5D5D

A '5D' for every ctrl-left_arrow press.

Is this a bug? Some bad configuration on my side? Something that was never implemented?

I can't answer about the specifics of joe, but the output you mention above is similar to the output in telnet, if the terminal does not support certain control characters, e.g. ^[[1;5D^] when I connect to postfix and press Ctrl-Left arrow. My guess is that you need to configure joe to bind this key combination. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yes, it does look like that. It is not the terminal itself, as in the same terminal Alpine works fine. So it is joe's fault.

I found definitions in /etc/joe/jstarrc:

nextw ^K N nextw ^K ^N nextw ^K n

Now the thing would be to find the right incantation :-)

would readline incation help? "bind -P |grep forward.*word" gives: forward-word can be found on "\e\e[C", "\e\e[c", "\eO2C", "\eO3C", ... "bind -p |grep forward.*word" is more helpfull "\e\e[C": forward-word "\e\e[c": forward-word "\eO2C": forward-word "\eO3C": forward-word "\eO4C": forward-word "\eO5C": forward-word "\eO6C": forward-word "\eO7C": forward-word "\eO8C": forward-word "\eOc": forward-word "\e[1;2C": forward-word "\e[1;3C": forward-word "\e[1;4C": forward-word "\e[1;5C": forward-word "\e[1;6C": forward-word "\e[1;7C": forward-word "\e[1;8C": forward-word "\e[2C": forward-word "\e[5C": forward-word "\e[c": forward-word "\ef": forward-word That "5C" stuff rings some bell, but I'm unsure, maybe "xev" helps?
