DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #30 from Wayne Topa <wtopa@dmcom.net>:
Are you seeing GIBBERISH after viewing a binary file on your
console (or in an xterm/rxvt window)? Add this to your ~/.inputrc
file:
	"\033[[A": "reset\C-M"
Now when you need a quick tty reset, just press F1 at the command
prompt. Try "info rluserman" for more options.
