This sounds like the so-called "edit page" mode, when what you want is "edit line" mode. The TeleVideo terminals I'm familiar with, 950s, have sequences to switch between these modes: ESC N to switch to edit page and ESC O to switch to edit line. While I have no way to tell whether these are what the 970 uses, it may be worth trying: put \EO in the :is=: capability (and remove \EN if present) and see if it helps any. Do you have a manual for it? You might look for "edit page" versus "edit line". der Mouse old: mcgill-vision!mouse new: mouse@larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu
