Question

Ctrl-a does not work, Ctrl-Shift-a does

Pressing Ctrl and the A key does not produce the byte 0x01, but pressing Ctrl, Shift and the A key does. I am not exactly sure what Ctrl-A produces by itself, because in shell it doesn't seem to do anything but in Irssi it switches windows. I am using Finnish-language Mac OS 9.2 with Finnish keyboard map on a PowerPC G3 system, running both version 0.8.9 and the one-off version created to a keyboard layout issue I had.

thanks for the report, I'll take a look at it. I would like to add a little debug mode for testing keycodes, since there's definitely some weird behavior in there.

Just used ssheven again, and it appears that ctrl-a's working is actually somewhat unpredictable. It switched from producing ctrl-c to ctrl-b during an ssh session.
