Intermittently, my terminal will start issuing spurious characters, along the lines of: ~[17~[17~[17~[17~[17~[17~[17~~[17~[17~ or something similar. I'm inclined to suspect a conflict between my terminal and mouse (PS/2 style), but I have no idea how to cure it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Conrad Sabatier http://www.neosoft.com/~conrads
