Thanks. That worked a lot better.

I disagree. How terminals work is important stuff, directly related
to mutt. I was damned near ecstatic seeing KM's post. A friend of
mine is going to love reading that. She's been trying to figure out
how to type numeric exponents in text (superscript) and that's going
to really help her. Thanks KM!
However, I won't belabour the point. :-) Have fun.
