It's me or the Tmesis ASCII-art logo appears somewhat scrambled? I'm =
using PuTTY 0.62 (the latest) on Windows XP. I've tried more than once
before writing this, and got the same result either with a 80x24
terminal size, = or with a full screen PuTTY window that gives more or
less a 120x60 = terminal. 

OK, just to be sure I looked at the raw data with tcpdump and there is =
really a CRLF where I think it should not: 

  0x00b0:   316d 6d71 716b 2020 206c 7171 7171 7171   1mmqqk...lqqqqqq     
0x00c0:   7171 7171 7177 7171 7171 7171 7171 7171   qqqqqwqqqqqqqqqq     
0x00d0:   7177 7171 7171 7171 7171 7171 7177 7171   qwqqqqqqqqqqqwqq     
0x00e0:   7177 7171 7171 7171 710d 0a71 7171 7175   qwqqqqqqq..qqqqu     
0x00f0:   1b28 421b 5b30 3b31 6d20 2874 6d29 1b5b   .(B.[0;1m.(tm).[ 

The above is the second Tmesis logo line, the one ending with '(tm)'. =
Note that there is a CRLF pair on the fourth tcpdump line... :P 

HTH, G. 

Try it now.   The default buffer size for the TNA0: template device is
obtained from the SYSGEN parameter TTY_BUF.   It was 80 on that system
and I've now increased it to 132.
