This article describes terminal emulation issues while editing a screenset created with the dialog systems utility (ds).
Problem:
While editing a screenset created with the dialog systems utility (ds), it failed with error 114 on file 'SSP'. Is the screenset itself corrupted, or there something else going on?
Resolution:
The problem is most likely caused by terminal emulation issues. The ds utility uses the ADIS module and full screen formatting. It depends on the TERM environment variable being set to a terminfo entry that matches the characteristics of the terminal emulator being used and contains correct entries describing the terminal capabilities. Check to see if TERM is set to "xterm" and if there is a version of "Putty" running as the emulator. The actual "xterm" terminfo entry does not contain sufficient or accurate capability descriptions to match the version of Putty. This can be resolved by using the PowerTerm emulator configured in its "ansi" emulation mode, and set TERM=ansi.
