I am using the UW terminal emulator (version 4.2) on a Macintosh, which emulates an adm 31. The Mac is connected (through a dial-up line and two rlogins) to a vax running BSD 4.3. On the vax, I am running the "uw" server to get multiple virtual terminals, and I am running GNU Emacs 18.52.1 in one of those sessions. Here's the problem. If type several C-f (move cursor right) characters or several blanks, the cursor moves very slowly to the right. There seems to be a one-second delay between each movement to the right. This problem has occurred for me with C-f in previous versions of Emacs, although I do not remember it happening with spaces. The problem does not occur when I use the "l" command in vi. Why is this happening? How do I make it stop? Does this happen with the Atari UW version? Just in case, here's the termcap entry, retrieved with "printenv" adm31:cr=^M:do=^J:nl=^J:al=\EE:am:le=^H:bs:ce=\ET:cm=\E=%+ %+ :cl=^Z:cd=\EY: :co#80:dc=\EW:dl=\ER:ei=\Er:ho=^^:im=\Eq:li#24:mi:nd=^L:up=^K:MT:km: :so=\EG1:se=\EG0: Glen Ditchfield gjditchfield@violet.uwaterloo.ca Office: DC 2517 Dept. of Computer Science, U of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, N2L 3G1 "... and the rest, we will spend foolishly!" -- _Svengali_

The Mac is connected (through a dial-up line and two I am also using uw 4.2 and have noticed something frustrating. If I have a uw window open at the same time as I am typing into Mockwrite, uw will grab some of my keystrokes. If I close the uw window it works fine. Also large pastes (10K chars?) into uw can crash the Mac. Kent Borg kent@lloyd.uucp or hscfvax!lloyd!kent
