shift-pageup / shift-pagedown scrolls in a gnome-terminal. The unshifted pageup / pagedown key is sent to the pseudo terminal, and it's up to the application currently running on the terminal to do something with the pageup / pagedown keys. E.g. "less" should scroll the file when it receives pageup / pagedown. > When I ssh into the OpenSolaris and run 'man' the > arrow keys don't work either. Probably because "man" uses "more" as pager. "more" ignores the arrow keys (and pageup / down). With "less" as pager it should start to scroll when you press the arrow keys. You may wan't to set the evironment variable PAGER=less -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
