So what is the TERM setting when you run the ncurses client, and what TERM setting is actually needed in the terminal you are running the telnet session in? Which size does the terminal have you run telnet in? xterm and the like sometimes default to 80x24, so you have to resize it to make it fit 80x25 exactly (so far). > BTW, why does the vga client ignore the 25th line?

What does your environment say about LINES and COLUMNS? Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
