Don't know how this is possible, Bob. If you logged in and saw that you were
at386-ei... *and* everything looked right in filePro, then something is
untold here. Since there is NO at386-ei termcap in filePro, all I can guess
is JP added one for you unbeknonst to you. Or, you are still going through
FacetWin and not really going upstairs to your comptuer room and logging in
on the actual console. (Still I wouldn't think anything would look right in
filePro unless someone hadn't given you some help.)
