If i try to open nano editor from Sshexplorer in Windows 7 it doesn't open and has a message about the viewport. I don't have the pc on right now to check the actual message.
Nano works perfectly well from the Ubuntu terminal though.

interesting ssh explorer in windows 7 how to start that ? or is it an extra program ?
I use Putty and WinSCP and they do a perfect job, especially WinSCP is very convinient and has an editor (no need for nano) and has explorer like interface
(be aware of the cache when using WinSCP, it does keep files in caches and as result you not get always the last file listing or file content, dependent on what you did. There is a clear cache command. )

It is a windows terminal clutty. Much nicer to use than Putty.

Hi firwareslut,
Nano fails also with Putty, if you set uxterm as terminal emulator. With the current kernel, you must use only xterm.
Maybe, by default sshexplorer uses uxterm :mrgreen:
So check, if you find an option in the sshexplorer settings to chose xterm.

The only option there is VT100. I cannot change it to anything else. I guess that is the problem`?

I downloaded the trial file. Its a pity that only VT100 is available...
Yes, with our kernel, only the xterm standard can be use...

attached a vt100 terminal file
the vt100 file must be put in /usr/share/terminfo/v
I included the full path in the zip file to show where it should be stored
Don't know if it will work..but you can try
vt100-terminfo.zip

That would perfectly! I think it is safe to add to the firmware in the future.
