Open Server 6.0 console
The console of Open Server 6, in character mode, comes up as "at386-ie".
The man page ("man screen"), however, continues to explain the behavior of
the "scoansi" console. Is there new documentation somewhere that explains
the escape sequences of the at386-ie?

This came up in a SCO Partner Briefing on OSR6. I recall it being said
that AT386-IE is a variant of ANSI. No other details supplied (except
don't try to change TERM on the console).
If all else fails, I'd have a look at /etc/termcap's definition of AT386.
You can also get a list of escape sequences from terminfo:
infocmp -1 -L AT386
And of course you can use infocmp to compare scosansi with AT386.

Hi, Bob.
Remember OS6 comes from UW7 roots. Try man screen on a 7.1.4 site and
decompile terminfo for at386-ie there.

Re: Open Server 6.0 console
Bob,
The SVR5 console driver is the driver used in OpenServer 6. This driver
is not the same as the driver in OpenServer 5. Every effort has been
made to ensure that well behaved OpenServer 5 applications work on the
OpenServer 6 console.
The screen(HW) man page contains out of date information. This
"documentation bug" has been reported to SCO Engineering. If you need
details on the at386-ie escape sequences please see:
http://uw714doc.sco.com/en/man/html.7/display.7.html
Let me know if this helps.
Regards,
John
