I also experience the same problem with VT100 and vi with RR and the
new White Knight.  It seems to be a chronic problem.  Pasting into vi is
also a particularly finicky affair, from White Knight.

Mac Kermit is great with vi, but is a dog when it comes to Kermit
transfers.. White Knight just rips with Kermit.. so it's worth keeping it
around.. 1/2 :-)

Never had a problem with vi with either VersaTerm, Acknowledge, or
Microphone.  If vi usage is important to you, it may be worth considering
one of these, rather than wait for yet another patch from Mr. Watson.

Best of luck, Dan.
