- The difference could be that MultiNet supports the TERMINAL-TYPE
- option negotiation and sends your VMS terminal type across to the
- TELNET server, while UCX does not. It sounds like a problem with
- Gopher; if it doesn't recognize the terminal type it should just
- assume the same behavior it has when you don't specify one.
