Mike,

Yeah, I noticed with Sterm that stupid up cursor comes back because Sterm does
use write() to write to the screen.  I thought about putting writeln() in to
fix it, but then I'd have to wait until a full line of text came in from the
modem before writing to the screen.  This would make the output look pretty
jumpy if there were long lines in the data stream so I decided against it.

Seems pretty stupid to me to have that up-cursor in there again.  After years
of listening to people complain about it you would think that Kevin would not
have put it back in.  Sometimes I wonder were that boy's mine is.

Mark
