I recently upgraded from rxvt-20050409-7 to rxvt-20050409-9 and have stopped getting different output for Backspace and Control-Backspace. In rxvt-20050409-7, I get ^? for Backspace and ^H for Control-Backspace. In rxvt-20050409-9, I get ^H for both.
I've tried explicitly setting the rxvt backspacekey to ^?, but then I get ^? both with and without the Control key. I've also been trying to decipher some of the documentation for terminfo/termcap, though I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around those, and I'm not certain whether that is the path I should go down since my terminfo appears to be unchanged between the two. For what it's worth, I tried running infocmp on both the -7 and -9 versions and got identical output for them both. I tried looking at what changed in the source tarball between the two versions, and nothing jumped out at me as something that would affect interpretation of keys, though I am extremely ignorant of the inner workings of terminal emulators, so I may have missed something. Now for my questions: :) First, I guess, does anyone else see this, or is it some problem with my installation? If it is a problem with my system, does anyone have any advice on how I should go about debugging it? I've also attached cygcheck output in case that is of any assistance. Many thanks, Jon
