If you are a hardcore terminal user, then you will run into layout bugs at this stage. I'm interested enough in why this is the case, what exactly had to be written from scratch. There must be some terminal emulators out there under both GPL and BSD licenses.
I run into problems using mutt, vi and pagers, so I find myself pressing Control-L a lot. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. This doesn't really bother me.
I enjoy being in this terminal. The effects at low volume and to taste can be soothing when you take a break and look at something, watching something compile. I don't like "perfect" text or printing that you can achieve with modern computers.
At the moment, I can't use this for e-mail (I bought it on Friday). I'll see how coding goes. Command line editing has so far been bearable.
