------------------------------------------------------------------------
A brief synopsis of the problem:RS/1 prompt (#) appears at top of
screen, writing over any existing material.(in Version 6.2A)




------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please describe the problem in detail (mention any necessary files or
commands that may be involved, on which machine the bug happened, and what
the program did that was wrong):
For instance, with the directory listed at top of screen, any commands
will be written over the listing.  In the help facility, the prompt
for choosing a number is written at the top of the screen over the
list of options.  As you proceed, the whole list will be written over.

I don't believe this happens in other than the new Version 6.2A.

This was on a machine at Athena in E40.

Fix (if you know what it is):
Beats me.
