Hi AJ, Why not try changing your terminal type to something like vt100 with the command:
TERM=vt100 Also find out what the current value for TERM is before changing its value. echo $TERM AEleen Frisch in her book describes a fix for a corrupted back space key if it is showing either ^h or ^? stty erase ^? stty -a shows the current terminal settings. So the problem could be in several places. -- 0 0 L & R Associates " Home Page: http://www.netaxs.com/~ldc/ _______ooO ~ Ooo_______________________________________________ LeRoy D.
