I've got a program that forks off jobs, then informs me when they're done. (I originally wrote it on an HPUX machine with no job control, but I find it useful on other machines also.) I have the status line escape sequence for a vt102, but I believe that it assumes that the status line is the 25th line. I'd appreciate any info.
