I have a problem that probably has an easy solution. I usually use elm on a remote device, but ever so often I use it on the Sun console. Elm does not seem to understand the console exactly. It runs, but it does not place things in the right place on the screen. The header line at the top of the menu page is usually a little off, and the arrow cursor does not appear in the right place, and sometimes not at all. It does not seem to be a problem with the operation of the program, just the formatting of the screen. I am running in a commandtool window, with term=sun-cmd. I am running SunOS 4.0.1 and elm 2.2.

Yes this is an easy one. Elm requires a shelltool window not
a commandtool window. It does direct cursor addressing, and command tool
windows allow for scolling. I run Elm just fine on my Sun using a shell
tool window and term=sun.
