iw that a legit address?? or is this an incantation newly implemented?
  
back to another situation

 when i    nroff   a file, the resultant file has 30 or more blank
  lines appended to the text. (no, they weren't in the original, smartie)

  this action has been consistant - is this a feature, bug, or user error?

I stated a hypothesis on that nroff behavior back in response #32,
two responses after you asked the question the first time in #30.

tsty - about the procmail mail filtering, i found a good how-to on filtering
emails based on a certain keyword in the to, from, or subject lines.

Did someone upgrade Lynx just recently?  It's not happy.

What is the symptom?  It was working as usual for me a couple of hours ago,
meaning it loads the same page 2-6 times before you can access it, and the
Tab does not work.

Hm.  I ran lynx just now, and it behaved fine for me.  No multiple
loading of pages; tab works.

Whereas for me (quick test) it works "normally" - multiple page displays &
all.

Re #63: I don't use procmail, but I've run across various scripts on 
the web that would do things like query ORBZ-style blacklists.

SOmeone said the multiple page display is related to n curses - what is that?
How would one fix it?

response 75 of 215: Mark Unseen   Apr 8 15:07 UTC 2002

I get the multiple loading problem, which has been around for a couple of
months now.

Hmmm.  My problems with Lynx seem to involve arrow keys, so maybe it's
because I upgraded Kermit recently.  So nobody did anything to Lynx on Grex?

Yeah, looks like it's my problem.  Sorry to have bothered everyone.

        My solution:  my use of Liynx has been dramiticaly reduced.

Lynx uses a library called ncurses.  Ncurses uses terminfo (or perhaps
termcap) to describe a whole bunch of terminals.  The variable TERM says
which terminal you have.  You in turn have stty settings (which may
among other things include terminal width & height), as well as a
terminal emulator (which probably does an imperfect job of emulating
some terminal.)  Problems with weird displays could be due to any of
these components, or due to a bad interaction between them.

For the terminal WxH case, you can say "!stty -a" to see what your
current rows & columns settings are, and if you running an ANSI
compatible terminal emulator, the Unix command "!resize" may be able to
determine what your current window size is and do the appropriate stty
calls.

If you're using the terminal emulator that comes standard with Windows,
you might have better luck with teraterm.

I am using VT320 with Kermit and it worked on previous lynxes without the page
loading multiple times, or Tab not working.  It works at MNet.  MSKermit for
DOS.

re #67 - remmers- i accepted your hypothesis at that moment but none
of the   wc   counts is divisible (evenly) by 55->68. now what?

I think TS is complaining about extra blank (or empty) lines at the end, not
about blanks at the ends of lines.

response 85 of 215: Mark Unseen   Apr 14 02:13 UTC 2002

This isn't the kind of system problem people usually complain about, so I
didn't remember to complain until now - and it happened at least 2 or 3 days
ago (but this past week, I'm pretty sure).  Problem may be fixed now.

Anyway, I was logged in to Grex & was called away.  When I returned, an hour
or two later (at a guess), the idle zapper had not reared its head at me. 
(I logged out anyway, then, as the problem that called me away was still
calling.)  But it seems pretty likely that the idle zapper was not working
at that time.

Backtalk has been running exceedingly slowly for the past several days.  I
logged in via telnet to get to this item moer quickly, to report it, and
ran an uptime.  It probably explained part of what's going on:

Ok: !uptime
  6:31am  up 76 days, 15:42,  31 users,  load average: 7.64, 7.04, 7.45

The clock is running nearly a minute fast.  Time to enable NTP, folks.

Oh no!  Not nearly a whole minute!!!!!

Okay, so every clock in my house is set to a differnt time.  I still do
pretty okay :)

if you're worried about accuracy, why not get clocks that receive 
radio signals from the National Master Clock?  Its movement is based 
on the decay of atomic particles, I believe (plutonium?) and is super-
accurate.

C. Crane Company has some for sale. ;)

Because NTP uses those kinds of clocks.  Right now, my desktop machine is
-0.0002060 sec off from time-A.timefreq.bldrdoc.gov
