I assume you are running the standard windoze telnet app? It is
horribly broken. Go to Tucows / download.com and download TeraTerm Pro.
It is a _fantastic_ telnet client, and there is a SSH plugin as well.
I don't know the exact location but if you don't want to dig through
Tucows, it is mirrored at http://www.hobbiton.org
You will not face _any_ problem with vi, pico, joe or whatever you want
to use. BTW - you _are_ sending this mail from pine, I see. The editor
in pine is pico. You can call it separately to edit files, using pico
<filename>
Or download nano (see my headers for the url) - lovely replacement for
pico.
