Correct Graphics for Univel Console UNIXWARE
Customers attempting to run Progress with Unixware (or Univel) will
encounter a problem with the graphics characters on an ansi console.
This is due to the fact, that Univel's ansi driver has a bug in it.
This will cause the left side of a frame to be displayed with empty
spaces. The upper, bottom, and left sides can be fixed by the
following steps:
1. Use our TERM=ansi entry
(In a desktop environment this may work without a hitch)
2. If not in desktop, the graphics characters will be strange - i.
e. a umlaut for the graphics horizontal. The customer can comm
ent out all the g1 - g4 and the gh and gv entries in the ansi
entry by putting a "." after the ":" - i.e :gv= now :.gv=
3. OR the customer can use the following entries in his/her ansi
entry under the "ansi" part of the protermcap:
gh=\222 gv=\231 g1=\214 g2=\215 g3=\216 g4=\213
(there may be a problem with overlay frames but these work)
The Univel bug will be seen on the console. The only known workaround
given from Univel Technical Support, is to use a wy320 emulation on
the console. This applies to Univel version 1.0 - 1.1 as of (2/14/94).
