What do I need to set to cause the carriage returns in command output
(including the ksh prompt) to be being obeyed? I haven't found anything
under tset or stty that looks like it would do it.
Sample ll output:

The wc and vi commands show that the cr's are in there, they're just not
having the desired effect.

Under SysV compatible syntax, try 'stty onlcr'. For BSD flavors, try 'stty -nl', altho' on my system, it tends to reset to -nl from nl all by itself. -- BURNS,JIM Georgia Institute of Technology, Box 30178, Atlanta Georgia, 30332 uucp: ...!{decvax,hplabs,ncar,purdue,rutgers}!gatech!prism!gt0178a Internet: gt0178a@prism.gatech.edu
