Lute,

The termcap entries that Sterm use only need to be simple.  Sterm uses the code
for erasing the screen, reverse video, and cursor movement only.  Any fancier
entry is just wasted with Sterm.

There have been problems with the termcap port on the 6809.  I don't know how
to correct it tho, and really haven't looked into it to much.  The main reason
I used termcap was to allow porting Sterm 1.3 to different OS9 systems
including Pete Lyalls GIMIX (now deceased), and OSK machines.  It's a shame the
6809/OS9 termcap port was not better since it does cause system lockups as you
have noticed, simply by changing one byte in an entry.

To correct your problem, I'd stay with the entry that works for you.

The patch for CC3IO is included in the archive for the latest Gshell patches.
Can't remember the name, but if you go to DL10 and look for the latest Gshell
patches, it should be in there.  You can also use the other patches in that
file.

As far as you terminal settings for CIS, I'd use a CRT and have it send
formfeeds.  This clears your screen between each menu and looks neat.

Mark
