I dumped the ua and converted to mgr about 3 months ago. In the
process, I also stopped loading wind.o. Now here's where the question
comes in.
When I log in, or when mgr exits, I see funky characters at the bottom
of the screen. From poking around, it looks like the CI (cursor
invisible) termcap string for a S4 terminal. Well, no s4
functionality when the window driver is gone. The /etc/profile claims
it's an adm3, but that also fails - vi can't do it's screen stuff.
While I agree it's not often I want to use /dev/console, it'd be nice
to be able to use it in an emergency to edit files. Since the manual
is as effective as always :-( does anybody out there have the info
I'm looking for??
Thanks for any light you can shed on this subject.
