Correct visualization of non english keys

Open daniele77 opened this issue 8 years ago • 0 comments

In Linux (and with putty as a telnet client on windows), some keyboard keys don't work (àèéùò"£).

In windows, the arrows in the numeric pad don't work.

Linked to this problem, is the backspace that after non-English keys misbehave.

In particular (x = doesn't work):

                                  nocolor                       color
                      special char    backspace     special char    backspace
win local       
win telnet client       
win putty client                                        X
linux locale               X                            X
linux telnet                            X               X

Please note that the problem with non-English keys is only in the local echo of the characters because the cli engine receive the correct input string instead.

Putty on windows should be configured as following:

terminal -> Local echo: "Force off"
terminal -> Local line editing: "Force off"
