Re: 0.15.7 rpm vs tar.gz

[pcunnane@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

"I just installed Henri's rpm for 15.7, but didn't see the cursor position 
patch I've been so eager for :-(. I tried building from source, and it's 
there (thanks, Frank, et al ;->). Was there a difference in the 15.7 code 
at some point that might explain this?"
     
     I downloaded the tarball and built the source, and I have cursor 
     positioning problems that I didn't have in 0.14 - makes it kinda 
     annoying to use, TBH.  Still an improved release, tho.
     
"All in all, this seems to be a very good release. Just about all the 
problems (just minor niggles, really) I've had with it have now vanished. 
Unfortunately, so has my backspace key :-( Mind you, it only moved back - 
it didn't delete as it went, so I just use the cursor key instead (this may 
well be something in my setup)."
     
     The backspace key in 5250-land isn't supposed to be destructive; it's 
     supposed to be a character backspace, with the significant point being 
     that it steps back from the first character of a field to the last 
     character of the previous field.
     
     Having said that, mine doesn't work either.  :(
     
"Thanks again, and keep up the good work."
     
     Amen!
