| From: Beartooth <Beartooth@xxxxxxxxxxx> | | Many times, when I hit ^J amid text in compose mode, it merely | makes a mess; and trying to mitigate that only keeps making it worse. | | This is with Alpine 2.0 under Fedora 11; I haven't yet managed to | spot a pattern in when it happens. There is a slight chance that this is due to the screen not matching what the buffer contains. Here's how you might be able to tell: - type control-Z to suspend (assuming your settings allow you to do this) - type the shell command "clear" to clear the screen - type the shell command "fg" to get back to alpine Is the text still a mess? The same mess? If so, the buffer and the screen do match. If not, you might have a curses problem (curses is the library that handles "full screen" manipulations of text-based terminals). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
