Nope. :(
I'm using Xfree 4.0.1, and I tried to change it into Xfree 3.3.6.
Under both servers I'm having troubles with keystrokes.
Please note that with the konsole the keys are correctly interpreted,
e.g. if I push Up, konsole bash recalls previous commands.
Moreover, the interactive terminal VIM interpretes correctly the keystrokes.
Under psql things are so strange.
I don't understand if it's psql that its misinterpreting keystrokes (a wrong
internal setting, which?), or it's something else?
instead of Up (for scrolling in the internel buffer) it appears ^[[A
Down ^[[B
Right ^[[C
Left ^[[D
Back_del (ok)
Forward_del ^[[3~
Tab (moves the cursor but does not complete the sql command)
Esc ^[
What internal settings make the psql interpete the keystrokes, and how to
toggle them?
