- Try using the review buffer with TALK... things get overwritten in the buffer
- whenever the cursor jumps back to the top of the screen. The conversation
- ends up out of order if you try to save the review buffer before someone hiti
- the top of the screen again.
-
- The same thing occurs when editing files on the host computer (glia). If I
- scroll UP while in vi on glia, the review buffer overwritten. (Same with
- insert mode. Review buffer looks REALLY screwy...)
-
- But the capture file has everything in the proper order, just filled with
- control characters. I would like to eliminate the capture of these characters.
- If the review buffer can filter them out, why not the capture file section?
-
- Seems like such a filter should be available for BOTH parts.
