vi (and more) buffer a few keystrokes at a time
Hi,
I'm running a system built with the 981115 diskettes.
When I run vi (or use more), it is as if my keystrokes are being buffered
(and the buffer has 3 or 4 characters.) Obviously this makes vi very
unfriendly to use. I don't have any problems entering commands,
only when vi is running in full-screen. I guess this is symptomatic
of ncurses being messed up? I don't really know.

vi difficult to use because of ?keyboard? buffering
# which vi
/usr/bin/vi
# ls -lta /usr/bin/vi
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Nov 21 2018 /usr/bin/vi -> /etc/alternatives/vi
------
Are there some packages I should try deleting then re-installing?
