I use a Wyse WY-99GT in vt220 mode so that I can use the "Esc[?38h"
and "Esc[?38l" sequences to switch into and out of Tektronics 4014
mode.  If the key pressed to trigger the switch out of Tektronics mode
is anything except <Enter>, the change back to vt220 mode is fine.  If
the <Enter> key triggers the change, the screen is messed up, and has
to be reset with an "Esc[!p" sequence.  This happens with our own
programs and with the SCO Professional (1-2-3 workalike).  Question:
Is there any sequence I can send to switch the terminal from
Tektronics to vt220 mode which will avoid the glitch?

Also, I would like to display a status line somewhere on the screen
while in vt220 mode.  I need approximately 40 characters for the
status line, which would update once per minute.  I do not want the
"standard" WY-99GT status line with time, cursor line & column, and
editing messages.  Question: Is there a way to display a
system-generated status line, in vt220 mode, either on the top line of
the screen or the label line area at the bottom of the screen?

Please send replies by email.  I do not receive this newsgroup.  Thanks.
