What were you trying to do?
When the tty olh starts up, it tells you to "Press any key to
continue...". I did so, and was hoping to see some immediate
indication that it was proceeding.
What's wrong:
It gives no such indication. I've seen it take as much as
five or six seconds between when I hit a key and when I see
any indication that it had any effect.
What should have happened:
I realize this is a minor complaint, but I think there should
be some immediate feedback here. If a menu has to be loaded,
then the screen should be cleared *before* the menu is loaded,
not afterwards.
