>Description:
With the above prompt, in tcsh, using the normal textmode system console,
when scrolling starts, the cursor disappears and is gone until i do a
'clear'.
Also, if i type a long command line, like
'echo hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello hello',
and then backspace it, the cursor jumps up a line and everything looks
rather mangled.
>How-To-Repeat:
See description.
>Fix:
Using a 1-line prompt, but I can't fit so much info into one line =)
