What were you trying to do?
use ispell in a 60x80 xterm window
What's wrong:
/usr/athena/ispell seems to use the terminal width/height sizes
found in /etc/termcap rather than those found in the tty structures
(e.g. stty size). This caused ispell to incorrectly display words and
context on my screen.
What should have happened:
It should use the terminal structure sizes, if available.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
