How do I make vi (and other curses apps) understand cursor keys? 2. I am using fonts 8x13 and 8x13bold for xterm. The line drawing characters work fine under this set-up. I am experimenting with fonts -dec-terminal-*, and like them better. However, the line drawing characters seem to be in a separate font (*dectech). Can I use this (and other fixed pitch fonts) with xterm and still keep the line drawing capabilities (some sysv curses apps use them)? If it matters, I am using X11.3 xterm as ditributed with 386 UNIX ISC X 1.0. Thanks for your help. ----- End Included Message ----- To answer question 1) I put: #setenv TERM vt100 #stty rows 22 I hope that this help you !!!!!!! **************************************************************************** Andres Monterrosas Universidad de las Americas, Puebla, Mexico Ing. de Proyectos Centro de Computo E-mail: Bitnet address andres@udlapvms (Vax) Internet address andres@udlapvms.pue.udlap.mx (Vax) andres@cca.pue.udlap.mx (Sun) ****************************************************************************
