R> From: > sg#1:se=\\EG0:so=\\EG4: > To: > sg#0:se=\\E(:so=\\E): I don't have any '50's anymore, but that doesn't work with a '60 in '50 emulation. If you: OPEN WINDOW main_area at 2, 2 WITH 22 ROWS, 78 COLUMNS ATTRIBUTE (BORDER, RED) for example, you'll lose the whole left side of the window border, because the Wyse and the termcap have different opinions about needing a column for the standout feature. The alternative, leaving the termcap alone requires the window be made less wide, or an error "...window to large to fit on screen" will occur. Tim --- ~ SPEED 1.40 [NR] ~
