There seem to be a large number of people asking about and
posting termcaps for the amiga lately. None has yet addressed
my problem, however.
These termcaps seem to work fine while running a 7 bit connection
to our VAX-8700, using, say, unixwindows. However, they don't work
with Dnet. Moving up or down a line in vi always moves the cursor to the
beginning of the next line, requiring ctrl-L immediately to clear
up the mess. Worse, it always begins the vi display about 6 lines
down from the top instead of at the top, and it never recognizes that
those top 6 lines exist. I thought the problem was in Dnet until
it occurred to me to try to login using unixwindows via an 8-bit
connection. The same symptoms appeared; thus it is the 8 bit
connection that is the problem, not Dnet. Could someone PLEASE
enlighten me as to what is going on?
I don't have much time to read news anymore, so please email.
