I am using backtalk from a linux console and cannot scroll back because mdacon
is defective in that respect.  If I were using a VGA monitor (vgacon?) I could
type Shift-PgUp (on my older monitor which does not have PageUp - I edited
some file to reassign key values).  Is there some way to use backtalk itself
to scroll back?

Ok Sindi - it's one thing for me to wax on poetically about my love 
for my cuisinart in this item.  It's another completely for you to 
talk linux speak, which has absolutely no culinary bearing.

[I have no idea, Sindi-re response 150; I think one of the other 
conferences would be more appropriate to discuss the hows and whys of 
various computer languages. In my earlier comment, I assumed that, as 
people read through items with responses, they actually looked at each
new  item with a response in it as it is displayed at the time-as, at
least in  some programs, you can/do see. Apparently some don't allow to
scroll back,  which I didn't know about.]  So lets get back to this, the
cheap eats  item.

You probably see different things using the web interface than if you ssh to
grex and access the conferences with backtalk/fronttalk.  I see only the
response I am reading or writing and however much of the material above it
fits into 25 rows.  Someone asked why I did not scroll up - I cannot.
I explained why.

I have been reading the conferences by web for so long that I think I
have forgotten most of the commands but I *think* that if you type 'h'
at the Respond or Pass? prompt, it will display the item header

[I'm going to go ahead and enter a separate item for computer and other 
unrelated stuff that people want to discuss here in the food conference,
 ok?]

skip it denise, there are plenty of other conferences where that is much
more appropriate.
