Hello all,
I'm a fairly new Mac convert (I got a MacBook a couple of months ago after having used PC and Linux exclusively for the better part of 10 years) and I'm loving MacOS X so far.
I have one small problem though, related to Terminal.app.
I run a Linux server at home and I use screen on it so that my MSN connection (I'm using Finch) never drops off. This works flawlessly when I'm connecting through SSH from either a PC with Windows or another Linux machine. When I try use the Mac OS X Terminal.app I run into some trouble, however. I can log in and start screen just fine, but my keybindings don't work. I've set F2/F3 to cycle through all my open screen shells, which works fine on the other machines, but Mac OS just beeps when I try to do this. The ctrl-button doesn't seem to function properly, either. Nor does CMD + arrow buttons function like PageUp/PageDown as they should.
I imagine this must be somehow related to how MacOS X / Terminal.app does keyboard emulation but I can't figure out where, or what, I need to change to get it to work. Does anyone know?
