	I have seen things like this, and other things (like areas which
are normally highlighted becoming simply underlined), however, I always
attributed that problem to the fact that the one machine I use pccons on
is a "Bi-Link" portable series with an orange/amber gas plasma screen 
plugged into the feature connector of a goofy PVGA card. But perhaps 
this might actually have very little to do with it... ?

>I briefly tried with pcvt, and that works ok.

	[ Whereas, on this Bi-Link, pcvt doesn't work at all (the screen
	goes perpetually blank). Not that this is a problem, the gas
	plasma screen is pretty non-standard (read: ancient) hardware. :)
	Also, simultaneous connection to a standard VGA monitor yields
	a perfectly normal display.

	If someone, while bored, wants to hazzard a guess as to why this
	is, I would be interested in knowing why .. ]
