I login using Procomm Plus and its vt102 emulation, and the only problem I've had in the past with vi is going in and out of insert mode would wipe out the character the cursor was on. However, I saw another posting on the subject; the key is to set the backspace character to be non-destructive, and vt102 emulation should work even though your TERM might be set to vt100, at least that's been my experience. -- Dario Alcocer | Internet: dar@nucleus.mi.org Associate Software Engineer | voice: 619-673-2161, x5119 Emerald Systems | Standard disclaimers apply.
