esc key not working in terminal emulation via logmein #48

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. connect to a pc using logmein ignition
2. telnet from the pc to a linux box
3. hit the esc key and it doesn't work as expected

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I'm in bash with '-o vi' enabled.
I should be able to use esc to see my command history - 'esc -' takes me to the 
previous entry for example. Also when editing a command esc should take me out 
of input mode.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Not at all obvious how to find out what version I'm running - I just spent a 
few minutes looking for this info and got nowhere. Anyway, I downloaded it from 
android market today (1st July 2011), so presumably it's the latest. Running on 
Android 2.3.3 on HTC Desire S S510e

Please provide any additional information below.

Luckily I can use the esc key in logmein's own 'function key' keyboard, so I 
can get somewhere, but this is not ideal (fiddly).
I you could fix this issue hackerskeyboard would be the ideal solution for me. 
The standard google keyboard is absolutely useless for this, so you're already 
a huge improvement!

Sorry, I haven't seen anything in my code that would explain this behavior, I'm 
pretty sure that this is just due to the logmein application not recognizing 
the Esc key code and ingoring it - see 
http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/wiki/KeyboardSupportInApplications . 
Have you been able to try a hardware keyboard (for example Bluetooth) to see if 
that works?
