Can anyone explain? yeah, use a different telnet program, or a different terminal emulation (see archives for vt100) or a better editor. i like JOE. it lets you define your own keystrokes for all your keys. or use PICO. it seems to perform the best under crummy terminal conditions. get used to control/ESC sequences instead of PgUp/PgDn. or use a FBSD machine for your client.
