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.

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.

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

Oooo, a bug in a GPS transceiver! I'm sure *that* saved a lot of lives.
I'm with Meg. I'm within ten minutes of the rest of the world, that's good
enough for me.

NTP is nice, but unreliable. I have several systems synched with it,
and every so often they just start drifting for one reason or another.
Re #91: I'm guessing you mean *receiever*, not transceiver, unless
you've got connections the rest of us don't. ;)

I keep my computer clock hours off of time, because otherwise I will look at
it in the morning and assume it's reasonably accurate. That is a good recipe
for being late to work. There are a couple of clocks I rely on to help me
keep time (it's only really important in the morning), but the accuracy is
entirely relative.

r.e. 89 No. Do not get one of those clocks. Graboids can track you by the
signal they put out. (This is a reference to "Tremors 3")

resp:91 Smell the stenchy fart coming from my huge dumbass. That's
right, take a big whiff. I may be a huge dumbass, but I can admit I'm
wrong and learn, and you're a dolt bent on riling everyone up.
