I run a UNIX box for public access here in NJ and have a slight problem.. Many of my DOS users call in with Procomm and Procomm + , the ANSI-BBS mode on this is non-standard and the VT-100 is the pits. Has anyone custom-build a terminfo/termcap entry for this software ? ========[ Xanadu Enterprises Inc.

I run a UNIX box, which I routinely (daily) call with a DOS machine running Procomm+, and I find the vt102 mode to be great. I had BIG troubles using it until I turned off the "destructive backspace" setting in setup. I think it was in the terminal emulation section of the setup. Once I did that, I was able to edit fine using vi.

Well, I get un-reliable sceen displays in VI most of the time ... I cant tell you WHY .. but the new terminfo entry I was sent solved it. ========[ Xanadu Enterprises Inc.

Procomm problem.... Here is a termcap that I was sent that should solve all the pcomm vt100/ansi- bbs emulation problems. For those that run UNIX BBS's this is a BIG problem.
