: When I finger this address, I get several hundred lines like this:
: [1;1H
: [1;1H
: [1;1H
: ...
: then it says this:
: Error: timed out while doing something indeterminable
The intention was for it to pause for a few seconds then give
a cryptic error message. (I actually got this error message
once, and no, it wasn't after fingering someone :) )
the .plan file consists of several copies of delay.vt and
the line 'Error: timed out while doing simething indeterminable'
did anyone actually see the plan as it was intended?
To give it a try, finger jpa...@mole.uvm.edu before monday,
^^^^
July 25, when I will change my .plan back to something normal.
