Hello, let me see if i can describe my problem.. i currently am using putty to access my bsd box from windows 2000. Using an editor such as vi, i may edit a file and exit vi. When that happens i would like the terminal to return to its original state. instead it leaves some of the file left of the screen. what i want is for the terminal to return to the same state it was in before entering vi. how can i do this? what is this called? Thanks, brian before vi: ---------- artist.txt sample.jpg artist_list.txt wav/ cake/ winscp200.exe close.pl [/home/henninb]> vi artist.txt after vi ------- Ad Libs|oldies| Adam Sandler|pop| Aerosmith|rock| After The Fire|pop| :q!
