If I enter text into vi (or vim for that matter) and hit the backspace key the cursor runs over the text but does not remove it from the screen. If I then hit escape after backing over all of this text it is then, and only then, removed from the buffer. On my 4.x systems vi and vim work as I expect with no intervention on my part. My term is set to cons25 btw. Thanks Mike
