From owner-bug-octave at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Tue Oct 31 02:33:41 1995 Subject: tty mode inconsistent on Alpha From: John Eaton To: pot at cnuce dot cnr dot it Cc: bug-octave at che dot utexas dot edu Date: Tue, 31 Oct 1995 02:33:17 -0600 This doesn't seem to be a problem for me using M-x rlogin to a DEC Alpha running OSF/1 3.2 with Emacs 19.29 and either Octave 1.1.1 or my current sources. The bug_report function should work if it is installed somewhere in Octave's LOADPATH.
