FACT(s) (Environment):

Linux

SYMPTOM(s):

** You cannot use del-char for both BACKSPACE and DELETE-CHAR. (627)

Starting Progress from a xterm terminal (CHUI terminal window from a GNOME or KDE X Session)

CAUSE:

In Progress session, MESSAGE TERMINAL reports "xterm". Obviously, xterm is not defined correctly in the protermcap so it ends up with this situation.

FIX:

Setting the PROTERM environment variable to "linux" in the .profile file seems to solve the problem.
