(ROM version 1.03 REV A) >Description: My wyse 60 terminal really doesn't like tabs. Doing an ls smashes all the filenames together, running an editor like joe causes all sorts of formatting errors based around large groups of spaces or tabs, and other oddities. My newer Wyse 60 and Wyse 60+'s do not show this behavior. >How-To-Repeat: Get a very old Wyse 60 and try using joe, with TERM=wy60. >Fix: +++ termcap Sat Dec 27 23:45:32 1997 @@ -3531,6 +3531,8 @@ :te=50^Z\Ew0:ti=50\Ew1:tc=wy60: wy60-w-s|wyse60-w-s|Wyse 60 132-column with screen switching:\ :te=50^Z\Ew0:ti=50\Ew1:tc=wy60-w: +wy60-nt|wyse60-nt|Wyse 60 with broken tab support:\ + :pt@:tc=wy60: # # The Wyse 75 is a vt100 lookalike without advanced video. # and 'stty oxtabs' on login. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: Kevin Day
