Shirley, you jest.  You don't -really- think I would import anything into
my registry sight-unseen, do you?  Give me some credit, do.  The -only-
registry imports I do are of things -I- did the export of, no offense.

The problem, more than likely, is in my termcap settings on the remote
host, not my PuTTY settings.  I mean, SCO keys aside, it really only has
one screen-drawing emulation mode.

I happen to think scoadmin is a PoS, so pfffffft, no biggie.  And actually,
-I- have zero problems with its redraws (or draws) anymore.  Now its
functionality is another story.  :)

Noted the presence of pass-thru printing.  Useless to me.  No printer on
this system, don't have any working driver for the one available via SMB
because I'm on win95 yet, and I hate printing anyway so it's not even an
issue for me.
