Can anyone tell me why my screen will flash when I try to use VT-100? I still get all the escape codes (read big letters and expanded letters) but the screen will still flash!?!?! Thanks for any help! Eric P.S. I did read the docs but I don't remember anything about this.

Just a guess, but one common trick is to translate the bell (Control-G) into a visual bell by quickly inverting and reverting the screen colors. Look and see if you have a visual bell option set, or listen for a bell tone by sending yourself a string of Control-G characters.

If you select audible bell, the visual bell is switched off. ___ __ |\ |\ | / \ SirOtto -- Gallant Knight of a rather large, squarish | \ | \ | / table someplace in the West Panhandle of Florida. | \ | \ |--< | \| \|___\____/ Michael E.
