[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] Telix VT102 emulation bug?

tamboer@cs.vu.nl (Tamboer Erik) (03/22/90)

When sent a 'clear to end of screen' escape sequence (^[[J),
the screen from the cursor down is cleared ok, but the line
the cursor is on is cleared to black instead of the background
color as selected in the Configure window. A way around this is
to send ^[[J^[[K which clears the rest of the screen first
(the cursor line becomes black) and then the rest of the current
line (which does use the correct background color). This causes
the cursor line to flicker once, but at least the screen looks ok.
When you use a black background, everything is ok, but I like
a blue background.

Is this a bug or am I missing something?
