The problem(s):
>I am running two AXP 3000s one still on v2.1 the other
>'upgraded' to v3.0. People log in using a variety of
>terminal emulation protocols and, since upgrading to v3.0
>a number of annoying defects have popped up:
>1) Cursor keys do not work on a) Macs running NCSA-telnet
>in b) emacs. (They work okay at the command prompt)
>2) 'more' does not print cleanly on PCs running kermit: it
>prints the last line on line 25 and only does a CR not a
>CR + LF. More functions okay on a 'real' VT320. 'less'
>functions okay.
The fixes:
I have two rather inelegant fixes for what I thought was one problem.
The following termcap description for vt100:

fixes the NCSA-telnet emacs no cursor keys problem. Thanks
to John Peden.
Putting up the OSF/1 v2 /usr/bin/more is the fix for the
PC kermit more problem. Thanks to John Long.
And thanks for various other suggestions, one of which forced
me to upgrade emacs to 19.28.
