Use anything but the Win95 telnet. It ***really*** sucks! You can get by with it in a scrape using the hjkl keys as arrow keys when in command mode within vi.
A great alternative that I use under Win95 is the latest version of Hyperterminal (version 3.0) which has Winsock capabilities and great terminal emulation. HT3.0 is free (for personal use) and is available at: http://www.hilgraeve.com Later, Kevin Traas Baan Business Systems Systems Analyst Langley, BC, Canada [EMAIL PROTECTED] (604) 882-8169 -----Original Message----- From: Jim Westveer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-user@lists.debian.org <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Date: Tuesday, August 26, 1997 2:15 PM Subject: telnet with debian 1.3.1 >OK, I am a dummy, wiht that despensed with.... > >I just put up debian 1.3.1, on a host that I had been running slackware. > >All is fine, except when I telnet to that host and try to use vi, my >telnet client (windowz95) seems to have formating problems (not evident with the slakware installation) > >Soooo....I try TERM=vt100;export TERM;tput intit ...etc.. to no >avail. > >Has anyone run into this problem when using Windowz95 telnet ?? > >Thanks, > >Jim >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > >-- >TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to >[EMAIL PROTECTED] . >Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . > > -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
