- At the unix prompt, type: setenv TERM vt220
-
- This works for using NCSA/BYU Telnet 2.5 on an Ethernet connection
- to an IRIS. It also enables the arrow keys to be used with vi.
-
- I am told that this setting causes problems with other programs, so it
- is not done automatically at login.
-
- Can anyone provide more specific information or suggest a better method?
