I am going to specify my problem a little bit more: I have set TERM to 'linux'. When I edit with the vi program (or the bash prompt) delete and backspa= ce works fine, but not control characters, like the Up, Down, Left,Right arrow keys, instead of that I get: ^[[B , ^[[A , ^[[C , ^[[D I hope this is a more specific information on this issue. I have looked= around in some web sites, but I still cant figure out how to fix it.
