Hi Dave,
Could you please explain how exactly the VT emulation "kills" the Fortran
run time system in OS/8?
What is the fault? How do you trigger it? Have you got a Fortran code
snippet which reproduces the problem?
Was there some previous discussion about it answering my questions above?

Did I miss a reason for the alternative? Because if you add a caching

Larry, as was stated in the original post (and multiple times in the

You could write something in C using curses/ncurses (which will do the
ANSI sequences for you automatically).

Tom,
If it has an IOB6120 then it the VT emulation kills the Fortran run time system
