In MS-DOS ESC[2J clears the screen /and/ homes the cursor while terminal clients only clear the screen. This means the next screen is drawn from from the bottom row of the previous one, scrolling the screen. It's only a small cosmetic thing I know, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a way I can setup the terminal to correct the display, or perhaps filter the "virtual" com port data on the fly to append a 'home cursor' sequence. --- K.
