- I just ported a new application to the Apollo and it's showing some odd behavior
- interacting with the VT100 emulator. If I don't start the vt100 emulator first,
- then the program starts, the screen clears and is replaced with the 'vt100' window
- However, no output appears in the vt100 screen. If I 'cc' the pad, then I can
- see that all the output is still being sent to the pad! However, if I start
- vt100 first, and then the program, the output all appears in the vt100 window
- correctly. What would cause this behavior? I suspect that they aren't using
- curses to output the text and thus the output is going to the original output
- stream. Since I know little or nothing about curses on the Apollo or otherwise
- I am looking for a quick confirmation of my hypothisis so I can go back to the
- vendor with some suggestions on how to fix the problem.
