Set term problem ??

How could I set the term setting so that I can immediate to use the term=vt100 when I logon to unix system without reset the vt100 everytime I logon to unix. I have modified the .profile but still cannot. Any idea ?

Hi,

I suspect you have set this in lower case, which will not work. You must also export the terminal type. For example in your .profile you would have something like this.

TERM=vt100
export TERM

Hi Idris,

You can add the term entry in your .profile file as,

export TERM=vt100
