>The fixes suggested here should solve to a large extent the problem
|
|
of deleting text you wrote (however, they do not help in creating other
|
|
text <TT
|
|
CLASS="LITERAL"
|
|
>:)</TT
|
|
>).</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>There is a small bug in the whole setting: if you're using the
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="ENVAR"
|
|
>COLORTERM</TT
|
|
> trick and you start
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="APPLICATION"
|
|
>xterm</SPAN
|
|
> from
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="APPLICATION"
|
|
>gnome-terminal</SPAN
|
|
>, the former will get
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="ENVAR"
|
|
>TERM</TT
|
|
> set to <TT
|
|
CLASS="LITERAL"
|
|
>gnome</TT
|
|
>. This inconvenience is,
|
|
of course, mostly harmless, and does not occur if you simply started
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="APPLICATION"
|
|
>gnome-terminal</SPAN
|
|
> with <TT
|
|
CLASS="ENVAR"
|
|
>TERM</TT
|
|
> suitably
|
|
set.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>Another nontrivial problem that essentially has no solution is the
|
|
one concerning remote connections: if you connect to a host whose terminal
|
|
database is incoherent with yours, you will have to set up things
|
|
manually.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>Finally, it should be noted that the fixes will not work for broken
|
|
applications (for instance, applications ignoring the
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="LITERAL"
|
|
>kbs</TT
|
|
> key capability). There is little to do in this case,
|
|
as fixing for one broken application will likely break all well-behaving
|
|
ones.</P
