Sorry for my english, i'm french canadian ! Hello, I have a little problem with the value of $TERM. I work on a HP-UX V2200 11.00, i'm root, when I logging on the system, I pass by / etc/profile then thereafter, my .profile. like this on all systems!!! In the 2 files, word " TERM " often returns but has any place, it is marked " TERM=vt320 " and by defect, my TERM is initialized with vt320. At which place that it is indicated that by defect, i'm setting to vt320??? I would like to modify that so that I can automatically be setting to VT100. I can put it in the file /etc/profile but I would like to know if there is another place. Moreover, I installed emacs, and by making " set - O emacs ", my 4 arrows for the history (as ESC-k of the ksh) do not function. Would have you an idea of the problems!?!?!?!? Thank you very much of your assistances!!!

#vi /.profile (edit your personal profile to overide anything set in /etc/profile) #Add the following# TERM=vt100 HISTFILE=`/.sh_history HISTSIZE=500 export TERM HISTFILE HISTSIZE (:wq!) #. ./.profile (source your edited .profile) #echo $TERM (check to see if TERM is vt100) #(ESC-k/j and try out your history buffer)
