Actually, I remember on good old unix with good old green-phosphors vt100-lookalike terminals the delay after pressing ESC was there. We were all happy back then, as we knew the reason why. I run real ARM systems and I sometimes have the same issues with vi, so I vote for the delay from good old days. Thanks a lot for digging in the problem [disclaimer: while arrow keys have definitely been a problem for me and I choose to turn back to hjkl instead of fixing the problem, I'm not sure it was under busybox vi on the target system] Thanks a lot for digging in the problem /alessandro _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list busybox@busybox.net http://busybox.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/busybox
