Hi Folk's,

I have problems with the "vi" in my xterm.
The "vi" use only 23 lines (My xterm has 38 lines). So if I edit a file
I type the ^l very offten.
The command "resize" didn't change the problem. I set the TERM and TERMCAP
variable correct.

May be the "vi" didn't use the TERMCAP variable.

Stephan
