Long report. Matrix for terminal emulations [linux] and [vt100] on
CCN and csuite.

CCN: user djm TERM=linux
current link underlined; commands line reverse video
CCN: user djm TERM=vt100
current link underlined; no commands line; just 
-- press space for next page -- in reverse video
[vt100] decides that there are two pages and replaces the line that appears
in [linux] (-- press space for next page --) should appear instead.
