The following reply was made to PR bin/1621; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Wolfram Schneider <wosch@cs.tu-berlin.de> To: Kees.Koster@nym.sc.philips.com Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, Keith Bostic <bostic@bsdi.com> Subject: bin/1621: last char in line stays "$" Date: Tue, 17 Sep 1996 15:10:35 +0200 Please check if the problem still exists in last version nvi-1.76. Wolfram Date: Mon, 16 Sep 1996 17:14:19 -0400 (EDT) From: Keith Bostic <bostic@bsdi.com> Subject: nex/nvi version 1.76 available Version 1.76 is available for anonymous ftp from the usual two sites. ftp.cs.berkeley.edu:ucb/4bsd/nvi-1.76.tar.gz ftp.bostic.com:pub/nvi-1.76.tar.gz (The UC Berkeley site is likely to provide faster transfer speeds.) Note that version 1.76 has replaced the previous "stable" version, version 1.71. Please let me know if you have any problems, and thanks for using nvi! --keith Kees Jan Koster writes: > >>Number: 1621 >>Category: bin >>Synopsis: last char in line stays "$" >>Confidential: no >>Severity: non-critical >>Priority: low >>Responsible: freebsd-bugs >>State: open >>Class: sw-bug >>Submitter-Id: current-users >>Arrival-Date: Mon Sep 16 00:50:01 PDT 1996 >>Last-Modified: >>Originator: Kees Jan Koster >>Organization: >Philips Semiconductors Nijmegen >>Release: FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE i386 >>Environment: > >vi version 1.34 on the console (TERM==cons25) > >>Description: > >Sometimes vi leaves the '$' sign on the last line and forgets >to redraw that line properly. > >>How-To-Repeat: > >make a line that's longer than the screen width, put the cursor >on the last character of the screen on that line (i.e. column 80) >and type 's'. > >You now see the proper '$' sign to indicate the replacement.
