[news.software.b] Minus key doesn't work in rn 4.3

tr@wind.bellcore.com (tom reingold) (03/29/88)

I have a small problem which I hope someone can solve.  When I
changed my shell from csh to ksh on the local Unix systems, I had
to change my .rninit file.  I will enclose it in case it helps.
The problem is that the minus key does not work, either at the
newsgroup selection level (go back to previous newsgroup) or at
the paging or article selection level (go back to previously
displayed newsgroup).  At either level, when I hit it, I get nothing
until I hit it a second time.  At the second hit, I get beeped,
indicating, perhaps, that it wanted some character to follow the
first and minus wasn't a good one.

Here is my .rninit file:
------------------------

"-F\$ " -S -t -v -N -T -r
-hnewsgroups -hfollowup-to -hunrecognized -hdistribution -hsender -hmessage-id -hreply-to -hreferences
-ESAVEDIR=%~/News/%C
-ESAVENAME=%a

Here is what I get when I press 'v' at the article selection level:

Thanks.
