I have noticed this with other programs and certain hp terminals. I suspect that it is due to mis-handling of the terminals standout mode. I believe that these terminals require you to erase the text that has been highlighted with one of the clear capabilities (clear line, clear screen, etc.) to wipe out the highlighting. Otherwise, text written over the highlighted region stays highlighted. My emacs uses clear line to wipe out the highlighting when overwriting it. As I recall, you specifiy this in termcap by not setting "eo" and setting "xs". If these capabilities are set this way already, the problem may be in Gosling's emacs or in curses, if it uses curses. -- }sOS?fzo~~n{~W~O~;;3?=u~_~=9?{umo~g{om~u}gnu}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}69s{umo~f{s:9y:>s.signy~uz>~/n9/w}zzun/.signy~uzu Warren Montgomery ihnss!warren IH x2494 }9:s~~n{~W~O~;;3?=u~=9?{umo~g{om~u}gnu}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}y~~~}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}y~~~}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}y~~~}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}y~~~}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}:3}>s~s[>}>s}sOS?g{o~>s~sZ>}>s}sOS?g{~n{~W~O~;;3?=u~_~=9?{umo~g{om~u}gnu}}}}}3?=u~_~=9?{umo~g{om~u}gnu}}}}}3?=u~_~=9?{umo~g{om~u}gnu}}}}}3?=u~=9?{umg{om~u}gnu}}}}}3?=u~=9?{umg{om~u}gnu}}}}}3?=u~=9?{umg{om~u}gnu}}}}}3?=u~={umg{om~u}gnu}}}}}3?=u~={umg{om~u}gn
