|I got Interlink

|forced to abandon Interlink as a loss. I am now using the vt100 emulation
|"mode ansi" on Flash, and it works fine with "vi" (which I am using to
|write this note). WithInterlink, I lost my precious arrow curser movement
|and my PF keys with the best setup I could find. (Screwed up results with
|the others). If I recal correctly, the Interlink vt100 in ANSI mode resulted

Hmmm, I use Interlink for dialing into Unix systems quite a bit, but I use
the vt52 emulator. The one time I tried the vt100 it didn't work - at all.
But the vt52 does everything I need (including use of vi and arrow keys).
The machines I log into allow me to specify my terminal at login, so I
am satisfied.
Flash is so inexpensive I just might try it, though.
