Home Key when using PuTTy in Windows… By default, in /etc/inputrc on lines 135 & 136, the Home key is configured to do something entirely different to the normal "beggining of line" action which every other distro does. It seems this 'feature' has been present for a while! Simply remark out lines 135-136 so it looks like this. # # Home and End # $if term=xterm # # Normal keypad and cursor of xterm # #"\e[1~": history-search-backward #"\e[4~": set-mark Change the Terminal-type String under the Connection > Data tab from the default “xterm” to “linux”. It worked for me. |
