Hi Stefan,

I'm very sorry for not having checked properly, but you are indeed
correct. I had overlooked one script which replaces the /etc/ttys
which I did not suspect. Sorry for the confusion! With TERM=xterm, ee
indeed works properly on the console.

I wonder: is cons25 bugged or simply obsolete? Not that I want to keep
cons25; just being curious.
