If this is a terminal via a serial line(or PC w/ terminal emulation), then I would check that your handshaking is ok. (ie xon-xoff or DTR). If the sympton is that only part of the screen is received, then this would make sense. If this is an Xterminal or TCP-IP connection, then it would be something else. Have you tried this program on the Console? -- Rick Tucker rickt@wybbs.wynalda.com -- I try to take one day at a time..., but lately several days have attacked me at once. --
