I've no clue on eterm (konsole user here), but have you tried the "reset" command, possibly after setting the $TERM environmental variable if appropriate? This usually does the trick if the terminal gets messed up catting a binary file or some such. See the tset/reset manpage for more details. Also, konsole has a built-in reset function accessible from its menus, which seems to work, but I'm not sure if it does the same thing or works differently. Of course, I've no clue if eterm has similar. If that's not it, hopefully someone else can help, as it looks to be out of my league. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
