There is a feature that I used in KDE's Konsole that I really miss when I'm on a non-GUI server. The ability to "broadcast" what I type to all open windows. That led me to wonder if this could be done with GNU screen (since it can do a whole lot of other cool stuff)? Basically, it would be... (3 Replies)

After I do CTRL-" to show all of my screen sessions, I typically use the up and down arrows to navigate up and down.
Suddenly this has changed, and instead only "j" and "k" seem to work for up and down.

NAME
toe - table of (terminfo) entries
SYNOPSIS
toe [-v[n]] [-ahuUV] file...
DESCRIPTION
With no options, toe lists all available terminal types by primary name with descriptions. File arguments specify the directories to be
scanned; if no such arguments are given, your default terminfo directory is scanned. If you also specify the -h option, a directory header
will be issued as each directory is entered.
There are other options intended for use by terminfo file maintainers:
-a report on all of the terminal databases which ncurses would search, rather than only the first one that it finds.
-u file
says to write a report to the standard output, listing dependencies in the given terminfo/termcap source file. The report condenses
the `use' relation: each line consists of the primary name of a terminal that has use capabilities, followed by a colon, followed by
the whitespace-separated primary names of all terminals which occur in those use capabilities, followed by a newline
-U file
says to write a report to the standard output, listing reverse dependencies in the given terminfo/termcap source file. The report
reverses the `use' relation: each line consists of the primary name of a terminal that occurs in use capabilities, followed by a
colon, followed by the whitespace-separated primary names of all terminals which depend on it, followed by a newline.
-vn specifies that (verbose) output be written to standard error, showing toe's progress. The optional parameter n is a number from 1
to 10, interpreted as for tic(1M).
-V reports the version of ncurses which was used in this program, and exits.
