Backspace is a difficult one since it can generate several codes. Try "bind dc" and "bind ^H", if those don't work I'll have a look, tmux doesn't currently look at the kbs terminal cap but maybe it should, although there is no guarantee that is accurate anyway. > > You can change the length of time they appear with the display-time option. > > i cannot find anything like that in the man page...

The xterm terminal description does not support colour so tmux does not attempt to use it, use a terminal description that does have it such as xterm-color or xterm-xfree86. > thanks for the answers! it's really easy (and dangerous) to > get used to this kind of support... > > -f > -- > my muse turned out to be a dike
