Description Shane O'Connor 2002-05-29 17:00:52 UTC 
Testing with a build that was built from source on 29th May.

vi a file in gnome terminal and the arrow keys don't work - cannot scroll
up, down or accross using arrow keys - makes it kinda difficutl to edit
files in a terminal.
Comment 1 Shane O'Connor 2002-05-29 17:14:23 UTC 
a workaround to this problem is to use the letter keys on the keyboard
to navigate - h (left), j (down), k (up), l (right)
