Description of problem: xterm text becomes trash after reading binary files with more. Red Hat 8.0 more doesn't read binaries but when using rlogin to log into a remote system and do more to the binary file (i.e. a compiled c file) it migh not recognize it as binary; like Red Hat more; and it will read it any way; then xterm characters become random even if you log out of the system. That problem happen to me while using a remote solaris system. How reproducible: Very. Steps to Reproduce: 1. rlogin into remote machine (Sun or HP) 2. more a binary file 3. Actual results: Random characters written into console. Expected results: Should be coherent information all over console. Additional info: Be happy.
