     You may have already thought of this, but: go into the options menu
(can't remember which one offhand - I've just gotten the demo) and change
the backspace to NON-destructive. It defaults to a destructive backspace,
and would very probably cause the screen "glitch" you're seeing. I was
having similar problems testing it in VI yesterday until I remembered "Hey!
The backspace is destructive!" I flipped it to non-destructive and all was
well...
                                                       - R'ykandar.

PS: Jack, have you gotten my mail in ref: new opening screen?
