Here's a snippet from a batch run. The record counts are mine. Quick   
8.19.C4, when told it has an HP terminal, does all sorts of fiddling. I   
think there's one set for each "run command" encountered in the screen.   
It was this stuff that I was trying to eliminate - note that the dots in   
this stuff are actually escape characters. Some of this plays havoc with   
some printers. Using term=vt100 improves things considerably. I was   
hoping that someone had discovered a termtype that did nothing at all but   
for now vt100 looks like the closest.
