OS X / Debian / pico
Authored by: brasscannon on Jan 04, '05 11:58:56AM
Easy fix: Terminal, Preferences menu, "Declare terminal type ($TERM) as: [vt102]" instead of [xterm-color].

Log back in, or at least do "export TERM=vt102" on the Linux end.

Verify that keyboard "delete" is ^? and deletes to left of the cursor; keypad "delete" is ^[[3~ and deletes to the right of the cursor.

("Ctrl-V and press key" to see what it's sending is a good trick to know! Thanks for the reminder.)

Works perfectly in Debian's pico-lookalike, nano.
