I've been trying TELEMATE 2.00A, and have also had problems running
GNU EMACS on a VAX/VMS. Specifically, when I type Ctrl-f to move the
cursor forward one character, roughly every 3-6 times one or more
characters get deleted from the screen.

I have destructive backspace set to off, and have set backspace to
send the delete code. Should I be doing something different?

By the way, the deletion seems only to be apparent. Pressing Ctrl-l
to redisplay the screen shows them again. Also, I'm using VT102
emulation.
