>From the keyboard of greywolf at unisoft.UUCP (The Grey Wolf):
:I would say that you have some sort of souped-up termcap that loves to
:use the memory-page capability of your terminal.  I would suggest that you
:use a slightly less sophisticated version of your termcap, or get your
:sysadmin to modify the termcap (usually ts and te capabilities) such that
:the pages are not switched.

You never need sysadmin help just for your own termcap.  $TERMCAP
set to a pathname works.
