Gidday, we're running the Vaxcluster Console System (tell me we're not the
only ones) and we have two problems:

	1.  We get a blank like in the VCS Events Box, which is a HIGH
		priority event - but it has no text whatsoever, and has
		no system name prefix.  I.e.
	------------------------------------------------------------
	   HSC50 28-JUL-1992 09:25:23   ERROR-I, End of Error

	   HSC50 28-JUL-1992 09:25:50   ERROR-I, End of Error
	------------------------------------------------------------
	   The VCS Events Icon shows the window as having 3 messages,
	   2 low priority and 1 high.  The Blank line is being flagged
	   as a high priority event - it's nothing!  I can clear the
	   blank line, and the high priority entry goes away

	2.  On the "Customize General" window of the VCS C3 display, I
		can set the minimum priority for bell - only problem,. VCS
		pays no attention, putting a bell with EVERY event, low,
		medium or high - regardless of what I've customised.  (I've
		now turned the bell off)

	3.  This is the real kicker.  I'll start up a REVIEW Node session,
		which pops up a window.  Suddenly, all my terminal windows
		(The VCS and ones under the session manager [all of which
		are running under the terminal manager under the session
		manager]) die.  I've whacked up the process quotas and it
		DOESN'T work, however, if I run/detach a NEW terminal manager
		with massive quotas, I can get it to work.

		So,  How do I get a Terminal manager that will be able to
		handle the crap that vcs hands it.  (I'm on a standalone
		Vaxstation 3100, 8Meg Memory - and I do have a paging file
		of course)
