[comp.unix.wizards] emacs

dgilbert@snowhite.cis.uoguelph.ca (04/22/91)

	I am using emacs compiled on a DECStation 2100.  My problem is:  
the whole thing works fine under X, but when I'm at home using my vt100
emulator, the lines screw up... ie. when I scroll, the status line gets 
pushed up with the text, and then the editor seems confused as to the position
of the cursor.  I have tried playing with the termcap, but I can't get anything
to work.

You probably need the AL,DL,IC,DC capabilities.
There is a file in the etc directory that explains all this.
