The first 'hunk' in Etc/FAQ failed (I saw nothing which :'should' brak it, so may be there are some blanks or tabs ?) Yeah, that always fails if you start from the RCS version. I don't know about the other version. That's because the patch contains a line with $Id$ , and as soon as you check out the FAQ that line gets filled with RCS information which is not static - eg. if you lock it, it will be different to an unlocked version. :The result of switching '-M' on is: :- deleting 'backwards' the last char, just moves left :- deleting a char 'inside' the linne, moves the following chars left, : BUT 'fills' with the last char (also does no 'blanking' of the last char) :- Control-U (erase line) only moves the cursor to the beginning of line :- Control-K (erase rest of line) does seemingly nothing It occurs on my machine as well. Annoying since I don't remember changing (or anyone else changing) any code that would affect it. Ahh, it happened between 3.0.1-test4 and 3.0.1 - sometimes having 17 old versions does something besides taking up disk space :-) Hopefully a patch will follow soon. -- Geoff Wing [gwing@primenet.com.au] Technical Manager Phone : +61-3-9818 2977 PrimeNet - Internet Consultancy Facsimile: +61-3-9819 3788 Web : Mobile : 0412 162 441
