• litebars - syncterm v netrunner

    From esc@21:1/112 to All on Sun Dec 30 16:00:04 2018
    Hey guys,

    I noticed an odd thing with my mystic board. When I use syncterm as my telnet client, the litebars are one row of the y axis "off" from where they should
    be. When I use netrunner they appear as expected.

    This doesn't happen with my daydream bbs, the litebars look as expected on
    both syncterm and netrunner.

    I also notice piranha (Caphood's board) appears to suffer from this as well. Anyone have any ideas?

    Might be due to the status bar, have you tried disabling that before
    connecting in syncterm?

    Nope, I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

    FWIW I have this issue with ENiGMA as well with SyncTERM when the status bar is
    on. IIRC the reporting of term size is off-by-one while most other terminals continue to report the "true" size & just overlay a bar. ...at least, thats what I remember. It's on my ToDo list to look into further.

    Yep, turning the status bar off fixed it. Very strange. I wonder why this doesn't affect my daydream board at all? Maybe because most of my screens are less than 24 lines long?
