backspace doesn't work in program "screen"
Asked by
temporalnexus
When I run the command line program "screen" inside a terminal, backspace stops working.
^h works as a backspace, but this is annoying for a touch typist.
I tried the standard stty erase ^v^h, but this didn't work either.
I suspect that the problem lies either in curses or the terminfo definition for screen.
Any ideas?
The backspace works fine in a standard terminal outside a screen session.
[Or am I the only person that still uses command line programs? Nah.]
