[Bug-food] Forgive me if this has already been found, but I just came across the problem with my new terminal, an Adds Regent 20. In version B 2.10.2 (dated 9/18/84), if your terminal has auto-wrap mode (that is, if you space to column 80, and then one more, it automatically goes to column 1 of the next line), it seems you have to set your screen size to X-1 (I have to set my 80 column terminal's termcap to 79 when using this version of VNEWS). If you don't? When VNEWS tries do use the direct-addressing + Erase-to-End-Of-Line stuff (to clear out the stuff past read) it misses a lot of stuff, leaving garbage on the screen. garcia@bnl.ARPA, garcia@bnl.BITNET, ..!decvax!philabs!sbcs!bnl!garcia
