Paul,

I have never seen this myself, but others have mentioned it to me in the past.
Still, Sterm version 1.5 is about ready for release and it has been worked over
pretty well.  There was a bug Carl Kreider found in the B+ protocol code that
messed up his screen controls, but it only happened when a certain type of
error occured.  This may be what you are referring to.  In any case, the latest
version should correct any bug that might have been in 1.3

Version 1.5 will be uploaded in the next few weeks.

Mark
