It's not obvious to me what you mean. Btw., David, i think `dialup' is a poor choice. The probably most ``generic'' TERM entry that could be used is vt100. It constitutes something like a least common denominator. People having something else want to adjust their $TERM anyway, and for the remaining 90 %, it's a good default. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
