The problem: when telnetting from a Sun to a NeXT, the line mode display
on the NeXT shows an anomoly in the way it handles newlines.  They start
directly under the preceding line rather than in column 0. 

	This doesn't occur using Terminal on the NeXT, or when telnetting
from other machines than the Sun (i.e. at least, I didn't have the
problem going from a Mac to the NeXT). One person reported that it also
doesn't happen using rlogin.

The solution: add 'stty -extproc' to the .cshrc on the NeXT.

	Thanks very much to the folks who responded this question.
