More on the "more" pager quirk...

	Hello all,

	Well, I just discovered something else about the "more" pager 
problem.  It also happens with the less pager and the lynx web browser, 
*BUT* can easily be fixed by hitting keypad Enter.  I was going through 
the Independent Living catalog they sent me on CD today, and did a 
search for "BlueAnt" to find my place again, paged down a few times to 
listen about the "Accessible Graphing Calculator, and trying to cut and 
paste text wasn't working.  Hitting keypad plus would read one thing, 
but cursoring around to try to cut and paste, showed me entirely 
different text.  Hitting Ctrl+L to redraw the screen didn't work, but I 
tried hitting keypad Enter, and SpeakUP began working correctly again.  
Maybe there's a bug in the virtual cursor code?  The ILA catalog is a 
fairly long text file, being 270836 bytes in size.  Maybe it's because 
it's larger than the 40000 full_stop setting?  I dunno.

	Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know what I'd found, how it 
had been corrected, and maybe give you an idea as to what had happened 
and it's probable cause/solution.  HTH,

				Michael

PS: Has anyone mentioned that when typing in a Subject line in mutt, 
that the space character isn't spoken?
