OK, I give up.
I tried to convince bash that over here umlauts are perfectly
legal characters, and there is no need to beep whenever I hit
a "=F6" or such. I snarfed an /etc/termcap from my Linux machine,=20
where this is no problem, but to no avail. Funny enough, self compiled
C programs don't care about bash, while less from the distribution =
does.
What the heck am I doing wrong or am I missing?

Thanks a lot
Tom

   If a train stops at a train station,
   what then happens at a work station?
