- Alann,
- Unfortunately, this is an artifact of how the telnet server is
- implemented. Whenever the screen is modified, the telnet server will generally
- repaint the whole screen, rather than send a particular escape sequence
- to accomplish the same thing. This shows up particularly with screen
- scrolling. It is unfortunate, but the way OS/2 allows access to the
- contents of a screen, it would be pretty complicated to implement it
- any other way.
