It seems from your description that something has caused an incorrect value to be mapped to the del key. I do not know the exact file, but surely someone on this list can provide that data. If that is happening only on the terminal, it can be edited from the gnome terminal menu "edit - profile - default - compatibility". Mine is set to backspace -> ASCII DEL, delete -> escape sequence. There also is a button to reset options to defaults. > Best, Darren > > -- > ===================================================================== > D. D.
