(In reply to comment #4) > And what is the expected behavior? If you try Alt-e on xterm and such it won't get echoed. There was a time when we were considering using Alt this and that for accelerators. If that were the case then someone would eat the keyboard event before Term would see it and there would be no problem. But I think as I was playing with it I noticed the fact that Alt-e echoes e when it really shouldn't. We eventually decided not to use Alt for accelerators so this is now a minor issue IMO. Hm, I get it echoed in xterm. Alt-e, Alt-c are echoed (I'm on sol10x86). Well, it is not true for gnome-terminal. So, maybe it is not a bug at all? Is there any standard that specifies a behavior? And now that I think of it echoing stuff is part of the line discipline (how the pty's are configured) not the terminal emulator. So I guess we can close this. |
