On a related note, sometimes when I use NCSA Telnet 2.2, and I use a a
program that uses a lot of screen control characters, I will be popped
into the NCSA VT font, which is totally unreadable, and looks like a
bunch of short choppy lines all over my screen. It is easy enough to
fix by choosing "Reset Terminal" from the menu item. I have a hunch
that a special sequence of control characters is toggling this mode.
Here at Columbia we have written a full-screen program that
consistently pops the Mac NCSA Telnet 2.2 into this mode. We would
like to avoid this, so does anyone know what exact control codes
toggle Telnet into this mode so we can program around it?
Thanks it advance...
