[03] MY TERMINAL GETS MESSED UP ON SOME PROGRAMS. WHATS WRONG?
|
|
|
|
You've either told UNIX that you're using a terminal emulation that
|
|
you actually aren't, or you have a crappy terminal program that doesn't
|
|
work right. You can find out what terminal UNIX thinks you're using
|
|
by typing "echo $TERM". You can change this variable by editing the
|
|
corresponding line in your ".profile" file. If you can do vt100
|
|
emulation, that's probably the best choice. If you find out we don't
|
|
have the files to support your terminal type, mail "admins" and they'll
|
|
be found. If your problem is a buggy terminal program, just find a
|
|
better one. Telix is a good choice for IBM PC's.

|
For TELNET/SSH try PuTTY, NiftyTelnet and TeraTerm .. You can find
|
|
most of these on public FTP sites. Check ~ftp/pub/internet too.
