Sure have...

In SCO with vt100 set, it gives me lots of garbage.
With ibm3151, it just spits out the message that it is lacking functions
needed to run pine.

What still baffles me is that it works when I telnet to a linux box in
either vt100 or ibm3151..

I still believe that it may be a termcap/terminfo thing...  Or just another
one of those pesky SCO annoyances.. =)

Thanks!!!

Look in your termcap/terminfo and make sure the 3151 is defined.  You
can get the *big* termcap and terminfo at

I wouldn't expect much luck telling your system you have a VT100.  Be
content that your 3151 is ASCII.
