The manual I have for a Concept AVT terminal indicates that if set
up properly, character insertion and deletion will continue over
multiple lines through the entire window until encountering a
position that has been cleared and never written.  While I can get
insert/delete to effect the whole window, it doesn't stop at cleared
positions, no matter how I set up the attributes of cleared
positions.  While this terminal can and probably should be set up
for the more "normal" style insert/delete for most editing, there
are a few terminals that only work in the way I described above, and
it would be very useful for me to be able to test my application on
the concept that I have access to.  Is anyone familiar with this?  I
used the sequence straight out of the manual (escape = 1;4;5;7;8;99:8:32!r)
and lots of variations, and nothing seems to work.

Any help would be appreciated.
