>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE i386
>Environment:

	Stock FreeBSD 2.2.5 system
	xterm

>Description:

	If you press control-z immediately after getting a vi error
	message (displayed inverted on the bottom line), you get
	a shell prompt, and all from there on all text is displayed
	inverted.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Start up an xterm
	Type "vi" <return>
	Type "/nonexistant-string" <return>
	You get an error message
	Type CTRL-Z
	Type anything -- notice it's inverted now

>Fix:

	Don't do that.
