I recently changed to Slack 8.1 and KDE 3.01 and notice the following strange behavior when I edit a file with Joe. After the edit i get the following identical "Processing" lines which never used to appear AFAIK. ------------------------------------------------------- $ joe filename Processing '/etc/joe/joerc'...done Processing '/etc/joe/joerc'...done File filename saved. ------------------------------------------------------- This happens in an xterm both as a normal user and root. It never happens in a console window (F1 thru F6). It's _possible_ that this was happening before and I just never noticed it. Is this normal? Larry Larry Alkoff N2LA - Austin TX |

Only thing is, the Ist message disappear very quickly and we are unable to read it under console. You may notice it by: script scr joe my_file ctrl+d after exit from joe joe scr scr is a file which record these message along with all your key strokes. > It never happens in a console window (F1 thru F6). I believe you must have read 2nd message about saving of file under console. Even this happen on my system with RedHat 7.1 (PCQ) KDE-2.1.2, and believe there is some smart behaviour under xterm, as after exit from joe it restore original window contents by eliminating text displayed by joe, while on console, such text remain there. -- H.S.Rai -------------------------------------- Wait for guidance...learn to be still. |

This "smart" behaviour is of TERM=xterm, if you set TERM=vt100 or TERM=linux the screen will not be restored. I find the behaviour of TERM=xterm to be very annoying (run `ls | env TERM=xterm less -E` and you will not be able to read the output of ls) and always reset it to vt100. joe also understands $JOETERM that overwrites $TERM.

Problem completely solved from your advice. JOETERM=linux export JOETERM Thank you very much. Larry Larry Alkoff N2LA - Austin TX |

Nice tag line above! I tried writing a file in a KDE-2.1.2 xterm under another machine on Slack 8.0 and the message lines DID NOT appear. Perhaps they fixed something in from KDE 2.1.1 to 2.1.2 and then broke it again <g> I found out I could eliminate the messages with: joe filename 2>/dev/null The only problem with this is that legitimate error messages from Joe will not appear. I have gotten error messages from Joe when I made an error in the joerc file. Any suggestions to both eliminate the message lines and retain my error messages? Larry Larry Alkoff N2LA - Austin TX |
