This may seem trivial, but it drives me nuts....

I administer my TSM servers from a Mac OS X box via the built in
terminal program. The "Insert" key on a mac is marked "Help" and
doesn't put the command line editor into insert mode (doesn't give much
in the way of help either, but I digress). This is a real pain when the
lines you are inputting are anything more than a few characters long.

So, my question is.. is there a way to send an insert key sequence from
a mac or, failing that, get the editor to default to insert mode (like
it should ;-) )


Thanks for any help on this!


Jason
