\_ What sort of TERM does emacs emulate? It defaults to emacs but I don't have
\_ that term type on my system. Of course xterm and ansi don't seem to work. I
\_ didn't see anything obvious in the man page.

heh...I wouldn't try full screen editing with it; you already have
emacs open, try that.  :-)

set it to vt52 or vt100 and you should be better.  or the popular
'unknown' term type.  :-)
