Hi,
I have a script which does a few things before running an ncurses based
program. When I run my script from a command prompt the ncurses based
program interprets the backspace key correctly. When I run my script
using an execle function call from some C code, backspace no longer works
as expected - instead I have to use ctrl-backspace to get the usual
backspace key function. Any pointers on how I can get the backspace key to
work correctly from my C code?
Regards,
Paul.
