When you en‐ -counter a sequence which you really need, implement it. But while you -are at it, do not add the other cruft you might encounter while sneek‐ -ing at other terminal emulators. History has bloated them and there is -no real evidence that most of the sequences are used today. - - -Christoph Lohmann <20h@r-36.net> -2012-09-13T07:00:36.081271045+02:00 - |
