What arguments do I have to pass to stty to set the terminal for handling
with alphanumeric editors like pico or vi ?

The problem is that if a file has more lines than fit on one screen, the 
editor does not scroll.

This occurs only in conjunction with XFree. There are no problems with a 
simple text terminal.

Thanks for any help.

Roland
