Is it a problem with the terminal library The problem is the standard system V.2 curses library (which includes the termcap emulation routines), does not return the termcap string "bc" or the flag "bs". If you change "bc" (backspace char) to "le" (move cursor left) everything will be fine, assuming you apply the TERMINFO patches posted earlier. -- Michael Meissner, Data General.
