Can't get vi to work (wrong screen size?)
Matt Can't get vi to work (wrong screen size?)
 
Hi,

I'm using KpyM under Parallels on OS X and connecting to it using the OS X ssh client. Everything works great, except that in vi the screen size seems to be wrong or something. When I scroll up and down I get duplicate lines and when I search for something it seems to end up displaying the text on the wrong line. When I try to scroll forward, it is using the line length for the line next to the one I am on.

Both the height/width in the KpyM setup and in my ssh client are set to 24 and 80. My TERM is set to "cygwin" for some reason, but when I change it to something more sensible like "xterm" then the arrow keys don't work at all in vi.

Any idea what is wrong?

Can you try to set this to 25 x 80. This is the default console size on windows.
Also can you try using the latest VIM version available here [url]l0c41://www.vim.org/download.php#pc[/url](Win32 console executable)
I'm not an active VI user but this version seems to be the most stable when run inside KpyM sssion.
