I just don't get this. Enough here use fP and Anzio...maybe someone can
help me out.
With the latest Anzio, I'm using SCOANSI (post-5.0.6) emulation.
On the SCO side, I'm using tcsh. Nothing extraordinary there. I set TERM
to scoansi and PFTERm to ansi or cansi. Either way, I get the same result:
I start 'p'.
I enter the requisite password for this system, I get runmenu.
I exit runmenu.
When I'm back at the command line, my typing is double-echoed, I can back
over my prompt with backspace, and the colour gets screwy -real- fast if I
even try to use vim to edit .tcshrc to try to change something. Sometimes
it comes out of fP messed up.
Everything is fine before I come out of runmenu.
My 'p' is just the script, and it looked stock. SCO 5.0.6a with various
and sundry patches. fP is 5.0.something. Last I -looked- it was .7 but
it may have been updated.
This is -supposed- to be a rock solid combination--fP, SCO, and Anzio. I
finally get around to trying to work with the combo, and it acts absolutely
abysmally. And the thing where you change -nothing- in Anzio's settings
and it wants you to re-save them when you exit is getting really old.
I'm actually really sorry I bought Anzio at this point. I was having
better luck using xterm with PuTTY, to be honest. Try and do it "right"
and it's breaking all over the place.
Okay, which piece do I have wrong? None, of which I'm aware. But someone
please point out the obvious and tell me what I did wrong because I don't
have the patience to fight this blasted software. I already tried for
20min, and it's going beyond the point of diminishing returns. Using stty
sane didn't help. Echoing the vt* escape reset code of ^[c didn't help.
Nothing helps except shutting down Anzio and trying again. I don't call
that a solution.
Someone please point the way.
(A very irked and frustrated...)
