This is awesome!

I like you work.

I had a quick play, and there are a couple of things that just need to be tweaked.

Is there any off by 1 thing happeing? When I position the cursor at the bottom of the screen I think it is wrapping and appearing on the top line.
(You can see this on my BBS when entering a page with *, the page input should be at on the bottom line, or if you are idle to long, the IDLE DISCONNECT appears on the bottom line.

Did you implement cursor right? The login box, the cursor is not being positioned correctly (its going to the right line, but not moving right to the correct position.

One last request, how do you "scroll back" - on the Mac (in Syncterm), I scroll back looking at history using the scroll wheel - if that was easy to do to, then it would be a great additionl. (Keystrokes is ok too - just wasnt sure what they were...)

Thanks for adding viewdata, it'll help me work on my videotex implementation.
