[Bug 1092481] Re: incorrect work gnome terminal

[Grant Bowman]

I just posted this answer in http://askubuntu.com/questions/230300
/incorrect-work-gnome-terminal/

It took awhile to understand your question.

This quote of Bill Hedberg from [comp.terminals][1] helped me.

> The WY60 is an "ASCII terminal", which means that it responds to
> "ASCII" control sequences of the form  "Esc~;"  The VT100 is an "ANSI
> terminal", which means it responds to ANSI control sequences of the
> form  "Esc[0m"

>From your results the [60;D# is the code used to clear the current line
that is not being understood. Though ~ is [ascii 126][2] and [ is ascii
91 I don't see exactly how it applies yet. It may matter somehow in
octal or hex.

I think the problem is related to WY60 vs. VT100 [emulation][3] software
involved on both sides. In each case check what is set in your $TERM
variable and associated entries in /etc/{termcap|terminfo}. Once you
find the cause of the problem a solution like [wy60][4] might apply.
