PT3.0 emulation problems

[feiges@snake30.cs.wisc.edu (Howard Feiges)]

Hello people --- its Howard Feiges here

I have been having problems lately with interfacing my modem with proterm 3.0
and my unix account.....

I used to use vt-100 emulation (I have the "newer" version of vt-100 for
proterm 3.0 [the one with the asterisk after it in the emulation menu]) and
everything used to work perfectly.....

but now, they switched all the computers  over to hp-ux... and now
things dont work as perfectly...


namely, if I am in the vi editor, and I am in the middle of a line (not
at the end of the line)... and I want to delete a character.... I  hit
the 'x' key... but nothing happens on the screen....

Internally, the editor DOES delete the character (if I hit control-L at
this point, the screen does update correctly without the mising letter)
but it just doesn't show it on the screen....

does anyone have a solution to this problem???

I have tried all other emulatios.... and all other emulations  have
either one problem or another so they are unusable.  

for example, with ANSI emulation, inverse goes on but it never goes off 
(kinda annoying to be typing in inverse).  With H-19 emulation, sometimes
letters dissappear when scrolling through the screns.  with the other
emulatios, sometimes the curser dissappears.....

with NO other emulations besides vt-100 can I use the arrow keys.....

does anyone have any information or a solution for these problems I have
been having???   I asked the helpdesk here and they said that they couldnt
help me.....   IT is real frustrating...   I can use my computer, but I have
to decide if I want to ether not to be able to delete characters, or 
staying in inverse, or not having a curser... it wouild be
real nice if everything would work perfectly...

thanx
