The problem with the optimizer and the help screens is fixed in the latest 
version.  There was a bug in the routines which handled back-tab and tab.  
(The SCO UNIX and Xenix consoles are the only ttys so far that have 
back-tab).

This sounds like something to do with the initialization string given in the 
vt100 termcap entry or perhaps a bug in the part of JOE which sends out pad 
characters.  Try copying the termcap file supplied with joe to $HOME/.termcap
Let me know if this fixes the problem.

You might also try using 'make sv' instead of 'make xenix', but you have to 
put these add these lines into the ttysv.c file: 

	#include <sys/types.h>
	#include <sys/stream.h>
	#include <sys/ptem.h>
	#undef SIGCONT

The xenix driver should be better than the system V one though.
