in the program source I am viewing. A 'ctrl-l' clears everything up, but
is inconvenient & raises trust issues w/ how the combo of
vi/NetBSD-7/rxvt/FreeBSD 9.3R is working together to process text. I am
not planning any heavy developement on this box, but this is still
irritating, since I use vi on various config files, etc. I haven't
detected any problems w/ the results so far, for the record, but am
still antsy about it .... TIA & keep up the good work ....
Perhaps $TERM is not setup properly? What is it on your machine?
Xmm, can you also try a plain xterm (not that I think it could make a
difference)... Also can you describe what's going on? Is vi core-dumping?
Is it displaying the screen improperly? Are there any error messages?

Yesterday it was crashing the whole login session, see below from the
remote machine (FreeBSD 9.3R):

It definitely doesn't display correctly when you either page down
(ctrl-f') or scroll down (ctrl-y), shows artifacts from the text that
was in the rxvt window before vi was invoked. That is cleared up w/
'ctrl-l', & clears up AOK. I can't locate any error messages from the
RPi, or any evidence of a vi core dump, where do I look besides my
messages file ?
