I had a similar problem with Pine. The term type was getting set to cygwin when I logged into the Linux box and it looked like the terminal definition was screwed up. It looked like it was having issues with scrolling the display when a character was written into the last row-column position so pine was out of synch with what was actually on the screen. I didn't have an issue with vi, but then it usually doesn't write that far over on the last row. I checked dejanews and it seems that the Linux termcap entry has problems for the cygwin terminal and the preferred solution was to grab a more recent termcap definition (I think freebsd was the preferred one) and install it on the linux box. That seemed like a lot of work just to use pine so I just reset the terminal type to vt320 and it seems to work fine. I mostly use pine and vi but I did a quick try with emacs and that seemed fine as well. --rick Robert P.
