SYMPTOMS
A. HOST PRESENTER
1. General Protection Fault in Windows when trying to select a
different printer in MS Excel 5.0 while Host Presenter was
running.
2. Running vi on a Sequent host, displayed garbage when doing a
page up (Ctrl-U) and a page down (Ctrl-D).
3. Capturing the Entire Buffer produced random missing lines in
the file output. MENU ACCESS: File ! Capture...
4. Underscores displayed on the printout where there should
have been spaces. This only occurred when printing files to a
postscript printer via the VAX/VMS PRINTER.COM DCL script.
5. A General Protection Fault occurred after printing a file
approximately 10 times.
6. Changes in the Windows Control Panel or Print Manager were
not always reflected in the application. Previously this was
only true if the application was restarted after the changes
were made.
7. Very small fonts when using postscript in Landscape
Orientation, while "Bypass Printer Driver" is enabled.
8. The workstation would sometimes hang when 5 active sessions
were opened.
9. Error;"Unable to obtain requested font" while using
Continuous Printing in Landscape on a HP LaserJet.
10. A screen flash while using vi could cause a loss of system
resources.
11. Printing to "Generic/Text Only" inserts 14 newlines (0x0A)
characters after a line.
12. DECCOLM (Reset) -- CSI ? 3 l or ESC £ ? 3 l -- Now clears
the screen after resetting the terminal width from 132
characters down to 80 characters.
13. General Protection Fault when continuously printing a text
line longer than 132 characters.
14. Selecting Landscape Orientation under File ! Printer Setup,
not working.
15. Exiting from Windows to DOS when double-clicking the OK
button in the screen/buffer printing dialogue.
C. RAPID FILER 1. When printing from files generated by a Micro
Focus compiler, some lines printed twice while some lines were
blanked out.
2. Changes in the Windows Control Panel or Print Manager are
now always being reflected in the application. Previously this
was only true if the application was restarted after the
changes were made.
3. The last line of a file, might not contain a Carriage
Return/Line Feed sequence (CR/LF). This problem was seen
together with Novell DOS 7 and other Digital Research General
Purpose Operating System tools.
4. If the user did not have write permission when overwriting a
host file, the file was not copied and the file on host was
deleted.
D. SERVING FTP
Users can now connect to a minimized (iconized) Serving FTP.
Previously, users could not connect regardless of whether or
not Restricted Access was enabled.
E. IP RESOLVER
"Unable to open socket, error 55."

2. Capturing can now be turned off from MENU ACCESS: File !
