		Hi there  folx,


	I have this problem with running my favorite
	binary from SCO , which is cscope , under FreeBSD.
	The thing is source code browser,which I have been
	using for a few years already. I find it _very useful
	when 1 want's to take a dive into source code,especially
	big chunk of it written by some1 else.


	But , the thing doesn't work a 100% under FreeBSD. It
	does start, builds cross-reference table and whatever
	files it needs to work, but behaves _very wierd when
	I try to control it ( it uses termlib).

	No matter what I type at the prompts, as soon as I
	press enter , the chars I typed just dissapear and
	looks like cscope itself sees none of my input,which
	makes it pretty much useless.


	I do have a valid /usr/lib/termlib/*/* file for my
	TERM type and I beleive SCO entries in /dev/*.
	Program doesn't complain about no errors - just
	flushes down the toilet everything I type :((


	The same program does work 100% under BSDI 2.1, but
	I need it on my WS which runs FreeBSD. What could
	be the problem here ? 


	I tried ^J instead of enter - with same results.
	Played with stty cs* and stuff - no luck there
	as well.

	It does recognize some commands though - for example
	"?" , shell escape .



	Rashid
