Re: Function keys cause psql to segfault

Hmm, in putty (Terminal->Keyboard) I changed "the
function keys and keypad" from "ESC[n~" to "Linux".
Hitting F1-5 in psql outputs "ABCDE" - no segfaults!
Setting it to "Xterm R6" also results in function keys
1-4 causing segfaults (there are also options for
"VT400", "VT100+", and "SCO" - haven't tried those).

Thanks,
CSN
