Description Tim Waugh 2003-07-08 14:53:47 UTC
Description of problem:
Backspace inside emacs -nw inside screen (inside gnome-terminal) broke again. :-(

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
emacs-21.3-6
screen-3.9.15-9
gnome-terminal-2.2.1-4

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start gnome terminal
2. screen
3. emacs -nw
4. Type 'abc' and backspace to beginning of buffer

Actual results:
Backspace doesn't remove the character to the left of the cursor.

Expected results:
Works as expected. :-)

Additional info:

This used to work not long ago.

Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2003-08-14 14:30:04 UTC
Seems to be fixed now.

Comment 2 Ben Levenson 2004-05-20 16:43:42 UTC
reopening:
<Backspace> does not delete characters in vim with screen-4.0.2-2.
This worked in 3.9.15-11.
I'm not so great at parsing .screenrc, but this seems to resolve
the issue:
"bindkey -d -k kb stuff \010"
