[Bug 992018] Re: Cannot type ^ with binding on ctrl-^

[Rhonda D'Vine]

I expect this to be solved, it's internally now changed to ^- instead of
^^, which is an invalid control character.

** Changed in: irssi (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

Title:
  Cannot type ^ with binding on ctrl-^

Status in irssi package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Irssi converts ctrl- keypresses to strings for comparison with
  bindings.  However, there is a block of code in src/fe-text/gui-
  readline.c that converts the single keypress ^ to ^^.  I reported the
  issue upstream years ago, but it still hasn't been addressed.
