After doing this the display on my mac goes kind of wild If you are using Vt100, you could be confusing the terminal with all the binary data. Under Customize is Vt-100 modes ( when in Vt100) that has a button (and other Vt100 settings) that will allow you to reset the terminal Perhaps that will solve your problem. Course the simple thing is to avoid viewing binary files. But I guess that happens sometimes.. -- Norm Goodger SysOp - MacInfo BBS @415-795-8862 3Com Corp. Co-SysOp FreeSoft RT - GEnie.
