Keywords: Miscellaneous Message-ID: <1990Oct7.224427.29219@rice.edu> Date: 7 Oct 90 21:30:00 GMT Sender: sun-spots-request@rice.edu Organization: Sun-Spots Lines: 9 Approved: Sun-Spots@rice.edu Originator: spots@walhalla.rice.edu X-Sun-Spots-Digest: Volume 9, Issue 332, message 12 For some reason, the console on our Sun 3/50's comes up with "rows" and "columns" both set to zero. "stty" seems ineffective at changing this. Can anyone tell me how to correct this? In particular, "rn" seems to use these settings to determine screen size, rather than using the Termcap settings. The zero settings don't give it's pager much to go on. Tim Kientzle P.S. Seems awfully silly to bring up X just to run "rn" ;-)
