Mostly likely because of raw mode settings. My quick solution was to change P to: awk 'printf "%s\\n\\r", $0'|pg -n This adds the missing carriage return and allows you to get through pg without using the Return key. If the Return key is pressed it just generates a ^M. Is there any other way of doing this? I know start report defaults to the screen put I don't want to do this. -- Michael J.
