Unforunately, version 6.11 doesn't appear to work any better. The latest
version
that I can find which doesn't exhibit the "no cursor" problem is 6.4. I
have yet
to find a version that isn't a memory pig on a 4.0 system. Doesn't anyone have
a reasonable version of xrn running on an Ultrix 4.0 system??

	Thanks,
