I am running under Sun Unix 4.2. | | What's more irritating, the same thing happens in vi. When I do a page down | or several returns, the editor starts zipping down the file helter-skelter. | From what I can deduce, something(?) is sending these two programs "60" | over and over, as if it were coming from my terminal. Returning to the | shell ends this input. +--------------- Are you by any chance using a Wyse 60 terminal? If so, make sure that your termcap isn't trying to send the sequence . (ESC SPACE means "identify terminal" to Wyse terminals; the response is (model-number) .) ++Brandon -- Brandon S.
