Again, I'm using 4.3 Release and trying to edit the ssh configuration files, not the shell configuration files. I think your instructions are for c and sh type shells, respectively. Does anyone know how to set TERM for ssh? The ssh man pages say that you can do this, but they don't say how. I've been researching and experimenting for several days now, but haven't found the answer. Bob Hall -- Know thyself? Absurd direction!
