I am using mit's terminal emulator. When it writes to screen memory,
I get colored static on my screen (I am using a IBM color display).
Specifically, in vi when typing a line, I get static as each key is
pressed.

Has anyone seen this problem, or know of special tricks to use
on a color monitor, when writing directly to screen memory?

Thanks,
Rob Hagens
