Hi, I require some help installing GRASS 4.0 on a UNIX based SUN system at
Liverpool University.
 
The version of SunOS used is:  4.1.2_DBE1.2
Installing GRASS for use on Sun Sparc IPX workstations.
 
I have installed GRASS but I have a number of problems with the display.
These problems are:
 
1)   When screen similar to the start-up screen of GRASS are exited the
     display is left scrolling diagonally.  I have discovered this is due
     to the lack of a carriage return, <CR>, character at the end of the
     line.
 
2)   When G.HELP is exited the terminal does not echo characters back to
     the display and in extreme cases stops input via the keyboard.
 
I suspect both of these problems are concerned with the terminal configuration
of Sun Sparc IPX workstations here at Liverpool.
 
I would appreciate any help with these problems.
 
Yours in hope
