Hello List. This is another stupid frequent question that might already get answered a thousand times, but I cannot do effective googles because the word 'tip' is too general. Local host is freebsd 6.1, remote host is Gentoo Linux. Both connected through serial cable on COM1. Now I wish to control Linux with my FreeBSD. This command can let me login to the Linux host $ tip com1 But after I logged in I found using VIM would create junk text. It seems VIM do not know my terminal is very wide (more then 130 characters per line). So, how do I fix it? Google did give me a lot of 'tips' but none of them is related to my problem... Best Regards
