No need to mention that when it comes to Linux everything looks fine. What is the proper solution ? I'd rather prefer to modify the termcaps than making adjustments in PuTTY, as some persons get cranky when it comes about changing PuTTY settings while Linux works well with the defaults. Thanks, Ady (@freebsd.ady.ro) ____________________________________________________________________ | An age is called Dark not because the light fails to shine, but | | because people refuse to see it. | | -- James Michener, "Space" | To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
