version of it. scrolls text instead of wrapping it; doesn't show random old english and runic characters for delete symbols on another terminal; allows you to shell back to a prompt during a session (to the great annoyance of people with whom i'm ytalking, hehe); &c. that's all i've found about it in the month or two i've been using it, and it's been a great help in accounting for different terminal types from costa rica to austria and all the internet cafes in between. </nori> -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/~nori/jnl/daily.html --
