Hi everyone, this is my first message, after being on the mailing list for the best part of three years :)

Though I might consider 2.11BSD, if that'll work on a machine with 24M of core, and if the escapes will display properly, because

is a little bit difficult to work with when I'm wanting to edit source code.

2.11BSD won't make a difference. You'll see the same result. This is a problem because you are running under DOS. It is the DOS screen handler that needs to understand whatever codes are output by the programs running inside simh. In this case, the program inside simh thinks it is connected to a VT100 (or xterm, or something similar), and sends escape codes based on that. I don't know why it thinks so, but I suspect you told the system by setting the TERM variable. Please set it to something that matches reality, or else fix reality. :-)
