Since the discussion seems to have died out, I take my patch will not be accepted.
The decision appears to be that OpenBSD is right and everyone else is wrong in this matter. Given that, and the calls to change the behavior of other OSes and terminal emulators around SHY: are you going to at least patch xterm in-tree so that it does not render SHY? Or must it remain broken? -- Lauri Tirkkonen | lotheac @ IRCnet
