My default geometry is 90x30, and the main | windows come up 90x30 (according to both my count and (screen-height) | and (screen-width)). Yes, my problems with Epoch seem to center around that. The size seems off, and it causes Epoch to start scrolling the page when one ^N's to the middle of the screen. ^V causes the thing to scroll only one or two lines, and when I hit ^L, it turns out not to have moved me at all. When I executed (epoch::screen-information nil), Epoch reported that the screen width and height (in character measure according to the 1.6b docs), were around 460 by 320 or some such. I assume this is really pixel measure, though.. (screen-width nil) gave me 80, but the window manager (twm) gave me 76 or so. <--(I think.) Any suggestions, please, please, please? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan David Abbey \ "Dudez!
