- When I dial in to the NeXT, with kermit (PC or Mac) occasionally some scrren
- control codes don't work properly. Generally it is around the time that
- the screen should be cleared, but sometimes the screen does clear (it always
- works in the same place and always goofs up in the same places).
- Generally I get it when I log on, before the first prompt appears, but I get
- it when I quit a few programs and lots of times in the Goper client (1.1 I
- think?) Sometimes it goofs up with words in the man pages, I think thos words
- are inverse or underlined.
-
- The most common code is ?[;H?[2J and it generally starts with ?[; but not
- always.
-
- It NEVER errors when I am running terminal from the console, and I don't think i
- t errors when I use NCSA telnet on the Mac (TCP mode).
-
- Any suggestions?? It doesn't bother me much, but the others using the modem
- don't like it very much and worry about the strange chracters, especally when
- screenfuls of information overwrite themselves.
