I don't remember right now what problems I had, I took the decision quite some time ago. I think it was some collisions with the control-keys used
There are also some other persistent problems with xterms. One I had just now, is that the terminal stopped accepting "dead keys", those used to type accented letters, like á, é, í, ó, or ú. This happens seldom, but twice this week. In those cases, the only remedy I found is to exit xterm and restart another one. Typing "reset" doesn't help. Another one that happens very often, in gnome at least, is when switching, say, from "mozilla" in another workspace to xterm: it seems the keyboard buffer retains some control code, and the first letter I type is interpreted as a command. It happens regardless of what I have in the xterm: pine, bash, mc, but the effects differ. I don't know if it is a problem specific to xterm or to gnome or both, but it has been occurring for years. Both problems, in fact. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFDafVctTMYHG2NR9URAs0mAJ9z7IZfp3IT6r1NPWdQrIGirva98gCfWves 9QjDu5iom0ODzofIECG13fU= =ttK9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
