I use term type linux, in both putty and in xterm, seems to work for everything, so far have had nothing break. you can also try TERM type: xterm-color you can check yoour TERM type by: set |grep TERM in putty either configure it to be term by linux/xterm-color or once connected setenv/export TERM=linux **Random Fortune for this instance of pine** The primary cause of failure in electrical appliances is an expired warranty. Often, you can get an appliance running again simply by changing the warranty expiration date with a 15/64-inch felt-tipped marker. -- Dave Barry, "The Taming of the Screw" --- www.nul.cjb.net --- The Power to Crash! --- www.FreeBSD.org --- The Power to Serve!
