Subject: Re: netrik was ( lynx-dev latest status on java script support? )
Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2002 10:08:51 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200203111608.g2BG8pG21465@dc.cis.okstate.edu> (raw)

	You are absolutely correct on the cause for the curses
problems.  Earlier today, one of the people working on the
development of this project wrote me and suggested the same
thing.  I do have the TERM environmental variable set, but it is
set to vt100 because I use MSKermit which emulates a vt320
terminal.  vt320 is a superset of the vt100's and vt102's.  You
usually can't go too wrong if you choose that setting.

	He suggested I try ansi as one of the terminal types and
so far, so good.
	I tried netrik on one of our javascript-run sites
produced by Lotus Notes, actually Lotus Domino which is what they
call their web authoring device and I think I see the dawning of
a new day.  This is definitely an effort which may turn out to be
something big.

	The authors say in several places that this is new code
and I noticed that one of the files I downloaded on Friday had a
date of the day before.

	These folks who have started this project have gotten off
on the right foot as far as I can tell and we should all be
patient and, if you can, roll up your sleeves and help grow it in
to a good mature application.

	The code is neat and modular from what little I have
looked at it and the documentation explains how it works.
