Hi all,
another annoying thing is that GRASS has some problems
with backspace key. If you enter a map name, it will
result to this:
VECTOR (DIGIT) FILENAME
Enter 'list' for a list of existing binary vector files
Hit RETURN to cancel request
linien^H^H^H^H^H
This occurs on several (Linux, Solaris,...?) machines. Ctrl-H doesn't work
either...
Any ideas?

Try ctrl-backspace.
Just now I wasn't able to find a command that gave me that problem while
running Linux and testing with the KDE desktop and fvwm2 window manager or
with OS/2 with the ICE window manager. I've seen it (plenty) before and
found it very frustrating. In all cases I've found if backspace doesn't
work then ctrl-backspace does.

Try ctrl-backspace.
Unfortunately no hope...
VECTOR (DIGIT) FILENAME
Enter 'list' for a list of existing binary vector files
Hit RETURN to cancel request
list^H^H^H^H^H
Ah funny:
r.in.gdal
OPTION: Bin raster file to be imported
key: input
required: YES
enter option > li
Here it is o.k. So the bug is limited to some? vector commands.
v.in.arc is o.k, v.support isn't.
Mhhh, perhaps an include file is missing in v.support? Strange thing!

To conclude: At least on my Linux box it differs from command to command.

Inside the grass shell, type : stty erase <Ctrl-H>
Works with xterm. If you are using KDE Konsole, look at
the option "BS send DEL"... Try also the use of DEL key
instead of Backspace... (there is some recurring fight
between the partisans of BS and those of DEL for erasing...)

Michel,
perhaps you didn't the my other mail.
In v.in.arc it runs o.k., in v.support is doesn't. That's crazy.
For most of r.* it's o.k. as well.
Therefore something must be missing in v.support. As it is
to be used regularly, we should fix it.
Thanks for your comment,
Markus
