Specifically, when I scroll down through the file (using the arrow keys) only the bottom line of the screen changes. I have set screen size to 24x80 on SGI. If you have something that works please mail or post the output from show terminal on the VAX. BTW I'm using VMS4.6 and Wollongong WIN/TCP 3.1 (maybe 3.2), IRIX 3.3.1 on a 4D/85GT I have also tried setting the terminal on the VAX to SET TERM/WIDTH=80/PAGE=24/ANSI/INSERT/TAB same problem. hendrix@dtoa1.dt.navy.mil

It doesn't matter if you subsequently issue the SET TERM/ANSI after because the device will still be set to VT00. To fix this, change any SET TERM/DEV=VTXXX in your LOGIN.COM to SET TERM/ANSI/DEV=UNKNOWN or add the SET TERM/ANSI/DEV=UNKNOWN to your LOGIN.COM if no SET TERM/DEV=XXX line exists. I recommend putting it in as the last line in your LOGIN.COM -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | David Carek | phone: 216-433-8396 | | NASA Lewis Research Center | | | Cleveland, Ohio 44135 | email: eddc@opus.lerc.nasa.gov | |---------------------------------------------------------------------| | Engineer -> An innovative imaginative scientist who must design the | | improbable using the impossible on a budget that is invisible | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
