Here's the code I wrote up some time ago: I have a similar (I think) question. I'd like the same thing only for when I use Mx-telnet. This problem may no longer exist in future emacs versions if you can telnet as a vt100, but now I have to use "generic" for terminal when I telnet -- to read articles on EcoNet/PeaceNet -- and the display's putting the cursor in the middle of the screen messes things up (i.e. a few C-u C-l will make things fine -- except you need to move the cursor back to the bottom again before you give any more input!) so you miss the first 1-6 lines of the article. Any suggestions? Harel
