Thats in many ways a design flaw in the protocols. Original telnet has IAC sequences to send a "delete" regardless of keymapping policies that are not known at end points. X also does it right with the keysyms. Ssh seems to lack this - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
