Try: $ stty sane $ TERM=vt100; export TERM
That will give you a common default terminal emulation. I would recommend getting a better windows client terminal. Some good free ones are putty and teraterm. Cygwin is a complete linux emulation package the runs on windows and includes decent terminal emulators (and I believe perl comes with it). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This email is confidential and may be legally privileged.
