Hey,

Just finished an osso-term hack (i was going to say "fork" but it's not a fork)

This is osso-term-0.11m, based on the 0.11 (http://770.fs-security.com/xterm/).

Changes:
* Added commandmode to ESC key
* Added commandmode help item to app menu

Commandmenu, when activated, basically turns the
left-right-up-down-esc-zoomin-zoomout buttons to
home-end-pgup-pgdn-esc-sendctrlwindow-sendctrlC (So, for the normal
ESC key behavior you have to press the ESC key twice)

Anyway here are the links:

Sounds good. But is this going to play well with nano and/or mc, which also tend to use double escapes ? Have you tried ?...

you simply hit esc 4 times instead of 2.

Hmm... eight escapes to save & exit from nano, sounds like a lot :-)

I just use ctrl-A or ctrl-E on the command line, and in vim of course there's $ and ^.
