when ever i open a shell in another program
in a virtual terminal (ytalk, joe editor)
i get the message "sh: can't access tty".

and all the terminal characteristics
are messed up - especially in an editor.

is there anything i can do in such a shell
to keep some kind of usable terminal emulation
that would work good when using an editor?
(ie - no garbled characters, messed up columns, etc
 when scrolling - same functionality for DEL, BS,
 PgUp, PgDn, etc).

please reply off the list as well ...
thanks.
