View Ref-FileFAQ - Why doesn't the Console window work properly under MiNT?        Thing

Q: Why doesn't the Console window work correctly under MiNT? -- If I 
   start a TOS shell the cursor doesn't appear and no input appears in 
   the window...

A: This is a known problem that only happens with old versions of TOS2GEM
   and should not happen with the version included in this package.
   Apparently TOS2GEM sometimes isn't sure whether it is waiting for an 
   input, and doesn't output the VT52 buffer. It's easily fixed by using 
   a newer version of TOS2GEM (release 6 or later) or by turning buffering 
   off using the 'None' option in the 'TOS2GEM' page of the 'Configuration' 
   dialog.
