I'm having some problems with vi in an xterm window. This is with a Sun 3/60,
SunOS 4.0, and X Window System V11R3. vi symptoms include failure of
insert line above and insert line below ('O' and 'o') commands to update
the screen properly with newly inserted lines. Is this a problem with vi,
or my xterm termcap? If it's a termcap problem, could someone please mail
me a correct xterm termcap? Thanks.

We had the same problem, and we determined that xterm was not processing the 'rc' sequence properly. The solution was to remove it; vi uses alternate methods in the absence of sc/rc. Don Pajerek
