Howdy, 

forgive me if this is too lame a newby question. When starting a bash it
opens a dos-Terminal with no scroll bar. Well that's not a big problem,
i just need 'less'. Ok, there i went, compiled termcap and 'less' it all
went fairly well, I think i slowly am back to my beloved
Unix-Environment :) 
But heck, my Dos-Terminal doesn't let me enter the '|' , nor the []s,
nor the '@' nor the '#' nor the '~' !!!! They all are entered by using
the Alt-Gr Key, so you see I am sitting at a swiss-german Keyboard with
these Symbols at very unpleasant places. It is very cumbersome with
Cut'n'Paste especially when my Terminal doesn't seem to constantly react
on Paste.... sigh!
Can someone of you kind souls out there tell me, what decent Terminal SW
for NT4 there are and where to get them? 

Thank for all pointers

Erwin
