xterm-debian and SunOs
Hello,
I have copied Debian's xterm-debian terminfo onto a SunOS computer
(under $HOME/.terminfo), so I can connect from a Debian xterm
without problems.
However, recently I have started noticing it doesn't work
properly on initial login (backspace doesn't work). Instead,
I have to type in
TERM=$TERM
(TERM is xterm-debian before and after.) I believe this command forces
zsh to reread the terminfo entry.
which fixes the problem. This seems kind of silly to me. Any ideas?
I have the following line in my .zshenv file (yes, I use zsh):
export TERMINFO=$HOME/.terminfo
Perhaps zsh doesn't realize that the terminfo entry which previously
couldn't be found is now available.
