Laptop HOME key produces ~ (tilde) in shell
I recently installed Slackware 10.2 on my Acer Extensa 368T laptop. The installation went fairly smoothly except that I noticed the HOME key produced a ~ while in a shell.
I had an idea that this was just a miss-mapped key so I started looking around. While many people had posted solutions, for MY situation, they didn't work.
Most of the solutions stated that you should ensure that the line:
"\e[1~": beginning-of-line
Appeared in my /etc/inputrc or .inputrc. This was already the case so I was somewhat confused.
