Things to try:
    o  Make sure that you are using a monospace font.
    o  Set 'relative origin mode' to OFF
    o  in fact, all I have turned ON is 'wraparound', 'autorepeat' and 'keypad'
       modes.
    o  It seems obvious, but make sure your Terminal Preference is VT100..:-)

VT100 mode works fine for me, I even use elm with no problems, and that usually
tests out an emulator...

Hope this helps,
