You can also try Putty and Tera Term. I know that both of them (or at
least putty) support the BCE feature that was mentioned elsewhere in
the thread. Of course, their actual usefulness does depend on the
termcap/terminfo entries on the host UNIX system.
For example putty purports to be 'xterm' by default (but you can set
it to whatever value you like). when connecting to solaris, mutt/vim
have no color at all -- because the solaris 'xterm' termcap entry says
that it doesn't support color. However if you set $TERM to 'dtterm',
color works properly. When connecting to a linux (eg debian or
redhat) system, their terminfo entry for 'xterm' includes color so
putty gives nice colors then.
I'm not sure what the original problem was, but maybe trying some
other terminal emulators or $TERM settings will help lead to a
solution.
