Yes. Lots of stuff makes that assumption, almost all of it unjustifiedly. > Maybe that's it; That's almost certainly it. < Here's an example from my serial port logfile: < "[6n[24;01H C[24;02H o[24;03H". This looks a _lot_ like seven-bit X3.64 escape sequences with the ESC characters stripped out. In particular, CSI 6 n (ESC [ being the seven-bit version of CSI) means "please report current cursor position" and CSI [ (row) ; (col) H is cursor motion. > I just need to find a real terminal emulator. Or (preferably, I would say) a bootloader that doesn't make stupid assumptions about the "terminal" it's talking to. :( /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
