My ancient (well, almost my age, anyway) GraphOn-140 terminal greeted me with a "Settings memory defaulted", or similar message, when I turned it on today. As it is merely a loan, I have no documentation. Could someone help me SAVE the settings after I set them? It now defaults to a 4 lines/sec smooth scroll with a key click (beep, really) and no key repeat. Ouch. Email might be better, since I'm sure no one else has this question. (But hoping someone has the answer...) A related question: Does anyway know what the makers of this generation of terminals (looks like a vt100; has no fan) say about leaving them on. I could just leave it on for evermore, but I feel bad the thing is just sitting there converting electricity into heat 24hrs a day, when I don't use it much -- and I thought turning it off (at night at least) would make it less likely to break (though it seems to have started anyway). Thanks for any help.
