Ehh, it's a bit rewriting history to call the vt line "dumb terminals". vt terminals were considered pretty smart, acutully mroe or less defining the term "smart terminal". That's still refelected in the termcap database: a dumb terminal has no random cursor movement, it more or less emulates a teletype. -Otto
