 Hi,

 Someone recently wrote that setting destructive backspace to OFF in the Telix
terminal setup menu would allow vi to work properly and not mess up the
characters on the line when going left with the cursor.
 He was right,BUT,although I had saved the setup and destbs=off appeared in
telix.cnf,when I entered the terminal setup menu after executing telix again,
the destructive backspace was ON.
 Then I remembered de telix bugs file I had deleted a couple of weeks ago.As
far as I rember it described three bugs:
1. Destructive backspace setting isn't depending on what's in telix.cnf.
2. A bug in a SALT function
3. A bug in some other SALT function.
 It also said that the EXIS-BBS had a telix.exe with a date after Nov 30 1989,
which had these bugs fixed.

 This is about 3.12,can someone tell me if I'm right on this one?
