hi. i have a redhat desktop, and the problem i see is in a terminal
window when running ksh
with bash it looks like this
#
#whatever the command i want, and when this command gets to long
it goes to the next line.
#
When i delete the 2nd line, it goes back up to the first line with no
problem.
when going to ksh it does a > at the end of the line. I wanted it to
go to a 2nd line, but when i set COLUMNS, it looks right, but when i
try to backspace or delete to go back to top line, it won't go back to
the first line.
i have the set -o vi, and tried set +o vi (again, works in bash,
but not ksh)
any help is appreciated.
