- I use ANSITERM and am very happy with it. I run SMIT and all sorts of
- AIX programs correctly through my ANSTERM session.

- Some configuration must be done on an RS/6000 to allow ANSITERM
- to run correctly. I unfortunately do not know what needs to
- be done to allow this. I will try and find out.
