[net.unix-wizards] Highlight mode of HP2622A and Gosling's EMACS

jis (08/19/82)

Does anyone know how to make the brain-damaged highlight mode of HP2622A
work properly with Gosling's EMACS? 

When a highlighted mode-line is updated partially, (e.g. when the cursor is
moved down changing the x%) the rest of the line beyond the end of the
partial update loses highlight. 

Is there any fix to this, short of writing a TrmHP2622.c, which suppresses
partial updates of highlighted lines and forces a complete rewrite of
highlighted lines instead? If so has anybody written one already?
