Well, I kinda figured out the problem. I ported (heh just a cross compile, 
really) linuxtree to the Sharp Zaurus pda, and when I was using it.. the 
keycodes were wrong. So Delete wasn't delete, it came out \177. As it turns 
out.. the default TERM on the Zaurus is vt100.. well... the keys only seem to 
work properly on the Z when TERM=linux. 

I guess I do have a question, I suppose. In this program, can I set what TERM 
to use explicitly? Instead of using the Z's default setting of vt100, which 
doesn't work?
