For the past 2 days, when I am editing a document with vi or vim, after cursoring up several lines, the console beeps and inserts a capital 'A' and goes into insert mode. After cursoring down several times, I get a capital 'B', a newline, and insert mode again. AFAIK, the termcap on this machine has not changed, and the term type is xterm-color, which is also correct. This *has* to be a stupid mistake of some kind, but I am at a loss to figure out what. Meanwhile, I will keep trying to solve it myself. jcm -- "I drank WHAT ?!" - Socrates To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
