I'm hitting a situation where curses is scrolling the screen up (by one line) by deleting every character on every line individually. The program in question is tn3270, and the OS is HP-UX 7.05. It's politically impossible to change the terminfo entries. -- Jeff Sparkes jsparkes@bnr.ca Bell-Northern Research, Ottawa (613)765-2503 Never trust a psychic who hasn't won the lottery. Twice.
