When I login with the console emulator the ESC K feature of the Korn shell for recalling previous commands does not work. Am I the only one to have this problem? Also if I execute the tset command under the console emulator the screen forgets the two last lines. Why? Finally the file /etc/termcap and /usr/lib/terminfo specifies li=35 for mac2. Since the console emulator provides 37 lines why is it set like this? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= =-=-=-=-= | Louis Lamarche, IREQ | lamarche@ireq.hydro.qc.ca | CP 1000, Varennes | or | QC, Canada, J3X 1S1 | 514-652-8077 (office) 514-324-2919 (home)

Simple -- under A/UX 1.0, the usable console screen was two lines smaller
because of the fake menu bar.
The workaround is pretty easy -- why use the console for screen-oriented
stuff if the MacOS-style programs are so much better? ;-) ;-)
