System name:		technomage
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 8.0I (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	dial in (*shudder* :)

What's wrong:
	If you dial in (or telnet I think) to a sun with TERM set to
	vt100, zephyrs come out with "$<2>"s everywhere the style
	changes. So "foo @bold(bar) baz" would show up as "foo
	$<2>bar$<2> baz" (with `bar' and the first `$<2>' in
	boldface).

	If you use vt220 emulation instead of vt100, this doesn't
	happen (which is why I'm assuming it's not zwgc that's
	broken).
