Thanks to all those who responded. The consensus was that this can be achieved by use of the VT100's ability to have non-scrolling regions and is enabled by use of the vt100-s-bot or vt100-s-top termcaps. I have tested sysline with vt100-s-bot and it seems to work, even with the non-DEC emulations. Gratefully, Michael C. Berch mcb@tis.llnl.gov / uunet!tis.llnl.gov!mcb / ames!lll-tis!mcb
