I DON'T have it at my site which is a 780 running 4.2 and VT100 compatibles. The only thing I can think that MIGHT be causing this is one change I made to the termcap routines because they used the TS field instead of the TI field. Some termcaps evidently are also set up incorrectly. I don't know if this is it, but that is all I can think of. If you are having the problem and can get me stack traces or any information at all on why it happens I'll try to find a fix for it as soon as I can. There ARE some pieces missing to the vnews distribution that I will try to take care of Real Soon Now. Specifically, there are two shell scripts (follow and reply) and the help file. I've just finished a major rewrite of the Makefile for 2.10.1 and as soon as I add a couple more minor bells and whistles (it now knows about lint and sccs and reacts in a relatively sane manner) I will post the rest of vnews stuff with the new Makefile so people who didn't have it before can compile it. Oh, yes, one final note: The version of recmail.c that went with 2.10.1 (and I believe before) has a problem that keeps it from working properly with vnews. I'll post that turkey as well (this will all go out tomorrow or Monday if I get it done). *sigh* I should have KNOWN better than to run inews through lint... chuq -- >From the ledge of the seventh cornice: Chuq Von Rospach {amd70,fortune,hplabs,ihnp4}!nsc!chuqui (408) 733-2600 x242 If you let a smile be your umbrella you will get rain up your nose.
