I've been running FreeBSD now only for like a day, and absolutely love it. I've found out a few things I don't like though. cons25 isn't vt100 capable. This is fine if it's just on my system, but if I'm telnetting somewhere, I can't use pine, irc, or anything because it garbles up my screen if I tell the other end that I'm using vt100. What is a reasonable termcap to use on remote systems that don't have cons25 since vt100 doesn't work? I tried using tset to set my local terminal to vt100, but it still doesn't work correctly. I even tried recompiling the kernel to use pcvt instead, and it works to an extent, but looks very unpleasant. Thanks in advance, Dave +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | David Anderson | Partek on IRC | partek@indecent.com | partek@youth.org | |--------------------------------------------------------------------------| | "We do not have to resign our vision to what 'the world is really like'. | | The roles of our past do not have to be the blueprint for our future.
