In article <278@forty2.UUCP>, poole@forty2.UUCP (Simon Poole) replies:
% This is the correct behaviour (I just rechecked on this terminal, an original
% VT100)......

Exactly right.  I'd be upset if it didn't work this; the first line in

$ cls :== set terminal /width=80

to clear the screen.  It doesn't work on some cheap VT100 clones, like
the C. Itoh CIT-101.
