Take the tour ×  I have a Mac with Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.5). I
have been using the Mac terminal utility for a year now with no
problems. When using it locally, there are no problems. When I
log into my Rackspace Cloud Server running CentOS 5.5, the
capital-E does not print, it just beeps. If I type 'ABCDEF' it
will echo on the command line: "ABCDF" and it will beep when the
upper-case E is typed.  My keyboard is OK. I can type and see
the uppercase E in any other program or even other terminal
windows, just not the one at the Rackspace server.  Another
quirk: I can start up an instance of nano on the Rackspace
server and the uppercase E prints just fine while I'm in nano. I
can execute a simple bash script that I've created in nano: echo
"ABCDEF" And it will output 'ABCDEF'. What is going on? How do I
correct this?  share|improve this question Not sure what's going
on, but try hitting ctrl-v followed by E to see if it will show
you what character the shell thinks you're typing? –  DerfK Dec
