RE: [Fink-users] rxvt delete key

It was working just fine with my old set-up, which consists entirely of the line rxvt*deletekey:^d in my .Xdefaults. Second of all, I managed to get it working for a moment (at least over SSH), but it has since stopped working. I can't remember what I did to fix it. The key is sending the correct escape sequence to emacs, namely ^[[3 -- so I can rebind it in Emacs. I found this nice binding on the web: (global-set-key [delete] (lambda () (interactive) (if mark-active (kill-region (point) (mark)) (delete-char 1 Third, I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me figure out how to get it working as a delete key outside of Emacs! As a side note, for one reason or another BackSpace is currently coming across as ^H instead of ^?, which is annoying. I fixed this with rxvt*keysym.0xff08:\177 in my .Xdefaults.

I don't think that's your problem: esd works OK on my system as far as I can tell, and I don't have /dev/dsp. -- Alexander K.

Re: [Fink-users] rxvt delete key
After a lot of fiddling about, I got both the delete and backspace key to work (locally and on the linux machine I'm logged onto currently) by using some very simple settings in my .Xdefault: rxvt*deletekey:^d rxvt*backspacekey:^? This is far from being the complete picture (indeed I still don't have a clue why delete stopped working in the first place); many of my fixes only served to complicate the issue. But the above definitely works, and I'm glad about that!

Now when I try fink install rxvt I am prompted to install the place holder package system-xfree86. But Fink then asks for me to install Apple's SDK. However, when I try to install the SDK, the installer program won't let me, saying that Newer Software already exists on your computer. No doubt it does, but I have no idea how to help Fink to understand this. Can anyone out there help with this?

[Fink-users] ace archives

There is a linux version around, but i haven't found anything for the mac. Does anyone have suggestions aside from the obvious, don't bother with .ace archives?

[Fink-users] failed to update system-xfree86
Hi! I have Apples X11 installed. According to fink, my system-xfree86 (placeholder) is old. When I do a update-all, I get the error message: Failed: Internal error: node for system-xfree86 already exists This is true, because I have the placeholder package already installed, but I would like to update it. Or why does fink show this package as obsolete? Any idea? Thanks!!
