Hi,

My TTY sometimes gets into a strange stage that ^K, kill-line (C-k), won't
work, but ^H can remove chars normally. Also not working are,
backward-kill-line (C-x Rubout), backward-kill-word (M-Rubout), etc. The
kill-word (M-d) works normally.

By "no work" I mean there is no visual sign of it is working, e.g., when
M-Rubout is pressed, I just see the cursor jumps back a word, but the word
is still there, although it is deleted actually.

Is there any way to get my TTY (actually an xterm session) straight again?

$ reset
$ stty sane
