These terminals and TERM settings were tested and work fine:

Terminal TERM Notes
|
|
---------------+-------+------------------------------------------------
|
|
Linux console | linux | Default TERM setting.
|
|
rxvt | rxvt | Default TERM setting.
|
|
urxvt | rxvt | But *not* the default of "rxvt-unicode"!
|
|
xterm | xterm | Or "xterm-color". Enable "meta sends escape",
|
|
| | or use Escape as the meta key.
|
|
xcfe4-terminal | xterm | Works, but e.g. Alt-F activates the terminal's
|
|
| | own "File" menu, so you have to use Esc-F for
|
|
| | bed's "File" menu. Default TERM setting.
|
|
konsole | xterm | Default TERM setting.
|
|
|
|
See also the TERMINALS section of bed's man page.
|
|
|
|
Two quick things to test, the first time you start up bed:
|
|
|
|
F7 and F8 should switch between Ascii and Digit-Hex input modes in the
|
|
status bar at the bottom of the screen. If they don't, try running bed as
|
|
'TERM=rxvt bed' or 'TERM=xterm-color bed'. If this works, you can define
|
|
it as a shell alias in e.g. ~/.bash_profile. If you're launching bed
|
|
from the KDE or XFCE start menu, you can likely force TERM from within
|
|
bed's config file (~/.bedrc or /usr/lib64/bed-3.0.0/bedrc).
|
|
|
|
Alt-X should exit the program. If it doesn't (if it does nothing, or does
|
|
some other function like moving the cursor), try pressing Escape followed
|
|
by X. If this works, you can either use Escape instead of the Alt key for
|
|
all "Meta" commands, or else reconfigure your terminal. In xterm, this
|
|
can be done with the ctrl-leftclick menu (enable "Meta Sends Escape"),
|
|
or set xterm's metaSendsEscape and/or altSendsEscape resources to 'true'
|
|
in ~/.Xdefaults.
|
|
|
|
It should be possible to define a set of keybinds for bed that work with
|
|
any terminal and TERM, with "bed -k ~/.bedrc". No, I don't know what a
|
|
"stab" key is, either (just pick an otherwise-unused keystroke for it).
|
|
I also don't know why it asks you to press the various keys in a seemingly
|
|
random order... but it does work.
