Re: CR key broken
I don't know if I'm barking up the wrong tree, but I've seen similar
things over a slow telnet connection when I've eg. been editing mail
messages. If this is the same thing, the problem is just with updating
being slow. If there are a lot of lines to move down, this takes ages,
and you don't see it at your end for a while. You could test if this is
the problem by editing a test file in the way you describe, saving it, and
checking to see what the saved file looks like.
However, I don't know how you can avoid this problem
