Hi.  I'm dialing into my NeXT from school and I'm having some problems.
I'm using an HDS3200 terminal at school which I have set for vt100
emulation.  When I log into my NeXT, it does not automatically sense the
terminal type (vt100) and instead sets it to 'dialup'.  I would like to
find a way to auto-sense the terminal type.  Right now, I manually change
the environment variable TERM so that vi and more work properly.

Also, This terminal does TEK40xx emulation.  Does Mathematica support
TEK40xx terminals?  I saw that /etc/termcap had a bunch of TEK entries.
If so, how do I get Mathematica to do TEK40xx?  I tried setting TERM
to tek4014 and then running the command line version of Mathematica.
The command : Plot[Sin[x],{x,0,1}]  didn't get me any graphics.

Thanks,
Ralph
