[rdesktop-devel] Problem with delete key and notepad

[Roger H. <rog...@nt...>]

I have Rdesktop ported to VAX/VMS 6.1, and it seems to be mostly working
with NT4 and W2000 (SP3) machines.   Many applications work, however there
is a problem with notepad (of all things!).  Word, wordpad, excel all are
ok.

In notepad, whenever the backspace key is pressed, the text gets corrupted,
as if it is overwriting.
Forcing a screen refresh clears the corruption, so its a display effect -
and the characters are correctly
deleted.  The backspace key works OK with Word.

I have not changed the backspace key mapping. The keyboard I am using is a
VAX one, with
several non-standard keys.  I have no idea which other keys to use, given
that it works most of the time.
