Hi Giorgos,

Looking into this some more, I get the impression that xterm and
VT100 don't have escapes to position at end-of-line. Someone please
correct me if I'm wrong in this.

As zile is based on ncurses, I guess the author isn't interested in
the specifics of particular terminal types. He'll just use a standard
call to locate the cursor and the library will do what's necessary.

I've posted zile's author on this problem. Let's hope he can advise.

Regards,
Neil Darlow.
