System name:		podge
Type and version:	KN02ca 7.6G
Display type:		PMAG-DV 

What were you trying to do?
read olc-answers in an xterm with no TERMCAP envariable.

What's wrong:
olc-answers doesn't check the terminal size/width (from stty rows xx
cols yy).  It just uses TERMCAP directly, which is incorrect for most of
my xterm's (it thinks the length is 66 lines).

What should have happened:

It should properly understand the window size when TERMCAP is unset.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
