I have an IBM 3194 Display Station which emulates a VT100 or a VT52, and I can't seem to get GNU EMACS running (I'm connected to a Pyramid). Here's what happens: I type 'gnuemacs' and I get a combination of junk and characters that come from the standard opening screen (mostly junk). Nothing is positioned properly...and it's altogether unusable. I create a 1-line .emacs file with '(term-script "./foo")' or whatever the exact syntax is...and that is supposed to copy to a file whatever is being sent to my screen. Now I re-execute 'gnuemacs' and still get junk. But I start editing files, splitting screens, scrolling, and so on...even though I can't see anything happening. Now I exit. Finally, I 'cat foo'...and it CORRECTLY plays my entire GNU session as it should have looked! I can see exactly what I should have been able to see while in GNU. Any ideas?
