I have several input problems in konsole.

a) I use irssi and irssi uses Alt+<number> to switch between windows. It doesn't work, only the number gets sent to konsole.

b) (not really an input problem) TERM env var is not set by konsole

c) When I'm in vim, pressing <backspace> while in edit mode or while typing a command renders "^?" instead of deleting

a) Fixed by commit #678227
c) Fixed by commit #678246
Comment 2 Isaac Clerencia 2007-06-21 08:58:53 UTC 
Cool, it works great, but now pressing and releasing Alt without pressing any other key doesn't put the focus on the menu, which should be the proper behaviour according to bug 66446.
Comment 3 Robert Knight 2007-06-23 04:11:56 UTC 
Fixed b) by implementing loading/saving and editing of the environment as part of the profiles.  The default setting is "TERM=xterm", although pending the outcome of a discussion in another report, that should eventually become "TERM=konsole".

a) still needs work then.
