[comp.sys.mac] NCSA Telnet and emacs

ccw@nvuxr.UUCP (christopher wood) (09/09/88)

Hello, all!
   Is anyone else out there using NCSA Telnet (version 2.2) with
emacs successfully?  I am running a Mac II, 5Mb, System tools 5.0
(waiting patiently for 6.01), multifinder, and am communicating thru
apple's Ethertalk board to a VAX 8650 running UNIX (TM).
   When editing documents in emacs, the screen display gets messed
up.  going forward over charracters shifts each character to the
right (so the first character of the line appears twice, and the
character the cursor is over isn't visible).  When doing a screen
update, the current line is drawn 'somewhere else'.
   Is it just me? or is this a more widespread problem?  Is there a
work-around?  Thanks in advance!  Please e-mail responses, because
our net feed has been down.
