Hi all,
         I am having this really weird problem wherein I am unable to
type the letter "s" in my gnuplot term.  For example, when I type
"set", the display shows as "et" and as a result gnuplot flags it as
an unknown command!

My keyboard is fine as I can type "s" outside of gnuplot, and I am
able to type "S" but not "s" in the gnuplot window.

Even a copy-paste does not work. [I copy the word "set" from another
terminal and paste it on the gnuplot terminal, but the output shows as
"et"]

Interestingly, this problem occurs on Suse linux enterprise 10
machines, but not on the SLES 9 machines, which makes me think it is a
problem of the libreadline version.  Will try to provide more
information as I try to debug this, but any thoughts on this are more
than welcome.

Thanks,
Ramesh.
