Binary package hint: clusterssh

I'm using clusterssh (3.24-1) on Jaunty to give commands to a bunch of other linux servers. I noticed that when copy-pasting certain characters, it doesn't paste it as-is, it changes a couple of characters, like this:

`1234567890-=~!@#$%^&*()_+
becomes
`123456789`/=~$@#$%^&*()?+

Notice how the minus sign ( - ) becomes a slash ( / ), the zero (0) becomes backtick ( ` ) and so on.

This happens only when I paste it in the CSSH window, when I paste it directly in one of the open xterm windows, it pastes OK.

it doesn't seem to matter what distribution I log into (Fedora, Redhat, Ubuntu).
