Just received my copy of PC/VI for work, will be ordering my copy for home
as soon as I can get to my check book. I also feel that FANSI-CONSOLE (tm)
is needed, if not a MUST ! For $50 it is worth it. Another way of looking
at is you get a real VI (tm ?) for $150 and a real termcap lib with a real
ANSI driver for $50, not bad for $200.

OK, on to PC/VI bugs: (serial #93, version 1.0)
	when I do an illegal command such as r char <esc> the bell does not
	sound until another key is hit. Anyone else have this one ?

PC/VI termcap: (?)
	On page 97, UP, DO, LE, RI, I know what they should do but I
	don't think they work, anyone else tried 'em ?

	Do DL and AL work ?
