&gt; The ~non_terminated behaviour is there to make output to telnet
&gt; clients look neat:
&gt; 
&gt;     Please enter yes or no [yes]: no
&gt;     
&gt;     ^ server output.............. ^ user input
&gt; 
&gt; Which is kind of pointless if you're not using telnet, but are
&gt; instead using a 'split screen' client which separates input from
&gt; output.

Well, most split screen clients that I am familiar with (tf/vt) still 
handle it (they just put the prompt down in the input window).

However, this behaviour can be disabled with:

@set terminated-tell=no

(It should actually be the default for _new_ users, its just in the ALPHA 
the user is actually me, so it was on).
