[comp.sys.hp] HP terminal

 Hi guys,

I am using an hp 9000/825 with hp 700/92 terminals. The system is connected
in a lan with many other systems, and for this reason the terminal is 
vt100 for default. In the config terminal the 700/92 is setted like em100
but many times it eats a lot of characters! (it's a fat terminal :-))
for this reason i setted it like HP terminal, but when I write
TERM=HP
export TERM
it became more fat and CRAZY and a big casino start.
It is impossible to write and read because a big sequence of ' appears on
terminal. So I have to reset in em100 mode and reset TERM=vt100 and re export
TERM. ....so why this big trouble? and why in the em100 the 700/92
create a so big confusion? An hp terminal is more expensive than a Qume,
but it seems not to be better! (but sure more beautiful :-))

Try:
	TERM=hp; export TERM

when in HP mode, as for why you have problems in em100 mode I can't say.
You might try checking your settings for flow control.
