Hi -
I am the proud owner of a WYSE wy60 terminal, and am using the terminfo
entry posted here recently.  I am now having a problem with my terminal
when it is connected to certain systems...it is using the alternate
character set!

Specifically, with the terminal personality (setup window #2) defined as
WY-60, I can't read anything.  The login: prompt appears as garbage [yes,
the baud rate is correct].  Now, without breaking the connection to the
computer, I change the personality to WY-50+... bingo! everything is again
readable.

One other thing: This is one of the newer WY60 terminals that can simulate
a VT52 and a VT100.  My older WY60 worked just fine.

Any help will be welcome...please!
