I missed that.

As it is today in git, is this what the user is supposed to see on the
terminal (copy/paste):
RESOURCES FILE
The Xresources file is loaded onto the display as a resource
database
using xrdb. As the authentication widget reads this database
before
starting up, it usually contains parameters for that widget:
xlogin*login.translations: #overrideCtrl<Key>R:
abort-display()\n<Key>F1: set-session-argument(failsafe)
finish-field()\n<Key>Return: set-session-argument() finish-field()
The terminal wraps at 80 chars.
This around line 753.
Similar output around line 962. One long line with \n
Ctrl<Key>H: delete-previous-character()
\nCtrl<Key>D:delete-character() \n [...]
I looked at http://linux.die.net/man/1/xdm and it is very similar.
From the app/xdm/config it looks like this is how it should look on the
terminal:
xlogin*login.translations: #override \
Ctrl<Key>R: abort-display()\n\
<Key>F1: set-session-argument(failsafe) finish-field()\n\
<Key>Delete: delete-character()\n\
<Key>Left: move-backward-character()\n\
<Key>Right: move-forward-character()\n\
<Key>Home: move-to-begining()\n\
<Key>End: move-to-end()\n\
Ctrl<Key>KP_Enter: set-session-argument(failsafe)
finish-field()\n\
<Key>KP_Enter: set-session-argument() finish-field()\n\
Ctrl<Key>Return: set-session-argument(failsafe)
finish-field()\n\
<Key>Return: set-session-argument() finish-field()
I am left with the impression that this never worked correctly.
Thanks
