Screen + vim causes shift-enter to insert 'M' and a newline

Question

When running a vim instance in gnu screen hitting shift enter in insert mode adds an \'M\' and then a newline, rather than just a newline.

Does anybody know what the pro

Answer 1

Missing info from your question:

1. Where do you run screen and see this issue? Some terminal app (KTerminal, Gnome terminal, virtual console etc) or remote session (eg putty, ssh from another computer)
2. do a “echo $TERM” and tell us its output
3. do a “cat -v”, press Shift-Enter, then Enter, then Ctrl-D and then tell us what is output.
