Re: ncurses problem?



I have found that with the newest rxvt (released within the last week I
believe) it also messes up mutt, sets TERM to rxvt (which seems to break
a few things that don't know about TERM=rxvt, and also messes up the
screen for the kernel's menuconfig.  Oh, and backspace no longer does
a ^H for some reason.
