System name:		woof
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7F
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?

Display a man page.  It's using "more" to do the display.

What's wrong:

If the length (in lines) of the manpage being displayed is (number of
lines in the xterm doing the displaying + 1) then after I hit the
spacebar the last time my screen looks like this:

  woof% --(99%)

which is kind of weird.

I can reproduce this bug reliably.

What should have happened:

It should have moved the whole thing up one line and given me my
prompt on a new line, I think.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
