As I mentioned, it _used_ to work in the terminals I have installed (lxterminal & gnome-terminal). It did so without any particular configuration.

Unfortunately it looks like I'm alone in this. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@xxxxxxxxxxxx jabber: magnus@xxxxxxxxxxxx twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did not have C++ in mind. -- Alan Kay
