I am using DECterm's on a VAXstation 3100 running DECwindows. 
I am developing some REGIS based graphics program and once in
a while :!) the program fails to end normally. This means that
program returns to the text mode before being properly reset. 
The result is I lose my text cursor which make editing a bit of 
a problem. How can I get my cursor back. I've tried all the 
normal VT200 style esc codes I know about. (As well as the pull
down menus) It seems to me ESCc which means hard-reset should 
work but it doesn't. (Screen clears but the cursor is invisibile).
Other things I've tried include,
   ESC 8   
   CSI 0m
   CSI !p
I also have tried starting up and exiting the GNUemacs editor with no
success.

Any Ideas?
