I've noticed similar problems with GNOME terminal in recent versions of MC included with Redhat Fedora. In particular the ctrl-pgup and ctrl-pgdn functionality was recently moved to the ctrl-home and ctrl-end key combos. These key combos don't work in GNOME terminal, so the ability to get instantly to the top and bottom of the file in the MC editor is now lost on GNOME-based GNU/Linux systems (unless the user manually remaps the functionality back to a usable key combo). I'm assuming that in the past, important functionality was intentionally limited to key combos that worked with major term programs like GNOME terminal and Konsole but it seems as if usability on those systems is no longer being tested (or perhaps no longer considered important)? Anyway, it would be nice to see MC work out of the box on GNOME terminal and konsole again on future versions. I love MC but I use GNOME terminal far more often than xterm. -Steve _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
