I am having trouble with the vt100-128 terminal emulator when I'm using the vi editor. Does anybody know what the problem is? Does anybody have an alternate termcap I could use that fixes the problem. -- Jeff Waltzer (jeffw@althea.UUCP ...!ulysses!attibr!althea!jeffw)

If the trouble you had is the same as the trouble I had (that vi expected the cursor to remain at the right edge when a character was printed to the eightieth column and therefore sent a CR and an LF that you didn't need) it turned out that removing eat_newline_bug (xenl) from the terminal definition solved it.

The version that comes with the 1670 modem disk doesn't fully support vt100. It has somes bugs with windows and such So, if you call Qlink you cana get a copy of the NEW version in their CN software library (its kinda hidden). I dunno for sure, but the UXV maze mail server may have it- but I thought I read something about no rights to copy. Not sure. fptr=fopen("sig.pas","w"); fprintf(fptr,"PROGRAM SIG;BEGIN WRITELN('%s'); END.\n","Byron Guernsey"); system("tpc sig.pas"); execl("$HOME/bin/sig","Signature",0); (grin)
