Yes: this works. If I remove forcing the term and I hit backspace a few times, then I can edit the file properly. I really would like to understand why this happens: it looks like there is a reason but I am not able to guess it. It doesn't seem to depend on my settings: I created a brand new user without any prior custom setting and it is the same behaviour. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
