Subject: Unix Pine - Setup problems with Wyse 60 terminals

Hi,

Using Pine 3.91 and loving it... We have a couple of folks here using 
Wyse 60 terminals, connected to an Annex terminal server which is in turn 
connected to our Sequent system running Dynix/ptx. When they go into 
Pine, they have screen display problems, i.e. "ghost" images of the 
prompts appear to the right of the From: and To" fields after information 
is entered. In addition, they cannot use their arrow keys; they are 
recognized as control character sequences. I realize this is probably a 
setup problem in terminfo or our terminal server; but I would appreciate 
it if someone with a similar environment can lend a hand.

Since I have no direct Usenet access, I would appreciate if you could 
reply to me directly.

Thanks, and keep up the good work!
