Pine will not run, naturaly.
When this sort of thing happens, I usually do: setenv TERM vt100 or export TERM=vt100 depending on whether I'm using tcsh or bash as my shell. This seems to do the trick. I'm sure that there's a better way to do this -- I assume that applications should recognize the "linux" terminal type. I'll look into this the next time I update the pine package. I hope this helps you... Ted Hajek -=- Distributed Computing Services -=- University of Minnesota "That summer fields grew high and we had wildflower fever." - 10,000 Maniacs
