 	Hello.  I have been on vacation, but I'll try to get this done in a week or so.  One other
 place I notice the problem, is with vi(1) and window(1) when lines wrap from one line to
 another on the screen.  The bug is more subtle, but I think it's a manifestation of the same
 issue.  This one is interesting because I'm seeing it using vi(1) over an ssh connection into a
 window(1) terminal.  In any case, I sure hope the fix cures the problem with window(1) because
 this is a critical application for me.
 -thanks
 -Brian

 } Yes, this is true and, for the record, it wouldn't just be window but
 } any terminal that did not use \n for the CUD1 capability.

 } This should be fixed in -current, I was waiting for feedback.
