  to fix the end/home keys problems for XFree 4.x.
- history-search-backward and history-search-forward work AFAIK fine this.
- The content of TERM variable can be defined via command line paramater or
  within session types description in KDE 3 Beta 1.

Subject: Quirky escape sequence behavior
From: bpmedley@4321.tv

Package:           konsole
Version:           1.0.1 (using KDE 2.1.1 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: I didn't compile konsole.  I installed the default RH \
7.1 packages.

Hi,

I'm experiencing some quirky behavior when trying to use konsole.  I'm
trying to use the end/home keys and modify the setup for up/down in bash.
In addition, I would like for the less program to *not* clear the screen
when exiting.

Below are the versions for software that I think are affecting the
scenario.  After that is a description of the situation / problem.  I tried
to be specific enough to portray useful information.  Please let me know if
there is something else I can do to better document the situation.

= Situation / Problem = 
=======================

Desired behavior:
less clears screen: NO
able to map up & down for .inputrc: YES
end & home work at prompt: YES

xterm (XFree 4.x.x) keyboard
----------------------------

character escape sequences:
^V<up-arrow>    = ^[OA
^V<down-arrow   = ^[OB
^V<left-arrow>  = ^[OD
^V<right-arrow> = ^[OC
^V<end>         = ^[[4~
^V<home>        = ^[[1~

less clears screen: YES

empty .inputrc:
end & home work at prompt: NO
    home works.  
    end puts a '~' on the screen.

lines in .inputrc:
"\e[1~": beginning-of-line
"\e[4~": end-of-line
"\e[OA": history-search-backward
"\e[OB": history-search-forward

Both home and end now work at the prompt.

The history-search-backward and history-search-forward seem to be
non-functional.  I would like to figure out a way to make this functional.

linux console keyboard
----------------------

character escape sequences:
^V<up-arrow>    = ^[[A
^V<down-arrow>  = ^[[B
^V<left-arrow>  = ^[[D
^V<right-arrow> = ^[[C
^V<end>         = ^[[F
^V<home>        = ^[[H

less clears screen: YES

empty .inputrc:
end & home work at prompt: NO
    neither appear to respond

lines in .inputrc:
"\e[H": beginning-of-line
"\e[F": end-of-line
"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward

Both home and end now work at the prompt.

The history-search-backward and history-search-forward work like I expect.

However, now the left and right arrow keys don't work.  So I add these two
lines to the .inputrc:
    "\e[D": backward-char
    "\e[C": forward-char

After doing this the arrows keys work again.

The TERM env. variable was set to "xterm" (by konsole) for both of the \
above tests.  However, if I change it to "linux" for "linux console", then \
less will no longer clear the screen when exiting. I would like for less to \
not clear the screen and I would like to not have to manually set the TERM \
env. var. (yeah, I'm lazy :). 

This all seems very strange to me.  It makes me think that I have something
setup incorrectly.  Please advise.
