Mora Marin" Message-Id: <199608080706.JAA09399@obelix.cica.es> Subject: troubles with vi in telnet session To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Thu, 8 Aug 1996 09:06:02 +0200 (MET) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, This may sound a very stupid question, but I am really stuck. I have installed FreeBSD 2.2 SNAP-960323 on a machine at work. To do something profitable I telnet to another system running Unixware. I run into trouble when try to edit any file with `vi(1)': it doesn't want to scroll the text and simply overwrites the new line at bottom. I have tried changing TERM, using new termcap entries from both the remote system and Linux, and messing with `vi' settings, but no luck. May I have missed any point? Any hint would be highly appreciated. TIA. Jesus A. Mora amora@obelix.cica.es
