In article <20103@unix.cis.pitt.edu>, pdcst@unix.cis.pitt.edu (Patrick
Champion) describes several problems running VI under Telix's VT102
emulation.

There is at least one bug in Telix 3.11's VT102 emulation.  The "insert
character" function (ESC [ @) doesn't work unless you supply an explicit
count of "1" (i.e., ESC [ 1 @).  I reported this to the author several
months ago, so hopefully it will be fixed in the 3.12 release (whenever
that comes out!).

I am enclosing below the "termcap" entry I use for Telix.  Note that I
changed the number of lines on the screen from 24 to 25; I turned off
the "status" line (the online time in the status line was defeating my
screen blanker TSR).

# VT102 termcap entry, modified for Telix:
#	Added:		:dc=\E[P:
#			:ic=\E[1@:
#	Removed:	All null-padding
#	Changed:	:li=#25:	(was :li=#24:)
#	Changed:	:so=\E[1m:	(was :so=2\E[7m:)
#	Changed:	:us=\E[1m:	(was :us=2\E[4m:)
#
# NOTE:	"\E[@" should work as "insert character" -- but Telix 3.11
#	treats this as a no-op and will do the operation only if a
#	count of "1" is explicitly inserted.
