AIX pg problem
Hi all,

I have problem with regards to using pg on AIX v5.3.0.0 . Here wht i am trying to do --- i have shell script with the following statements

if [ "$TERM" = vt100 ] || [ "$TERM" = vt220 ]
then
echo ^[[?3h
tput clear
pg -f $1$2
echo ^[[?3l
else
pg -f $1$2
fi

While running this on AIX v5.3.0.0, the report skips the first page and starts printing from page 2. If i remove the -f option, everything is fine i.e. i can see the report from the first page.

As per the man pages of pg, the -f option does the following

-f Does not split lines. Normally, the pg command splits lines longer than the screen width.

My program requires this option, -f.

Can someone pls guide me on how to resolve this.

Pls note: the same shell script works fine on AIX v5.2 without any problem. Also, the file sizes of pg is different in AIX v5.3 and AIX v5.2

Appreciate your help.

NAME

       profile - set up user's environment at login time

DESCRIPTION

       If  the	file  exists,  it is executed by the shell for every user who logs in.	The file should be set up to do only those things that are
       desirable for every user on the system, or to set reasonable defaults.  If a user's login (home) directory contains a file named that  file
       is  executed  (via  the	shell's  before the session begins.  files are useful for setting various environment parameters, setting terminal
       modes, or overriding some or all of the results of executing

EXAMPLES

       The following example is typical (except for the comments):

	      #  Make some environment variables global
		  export MAIL PATH TERM
	      #  Set file creation mask
		  umask 22
	      #  Tell me when new mail comes in
		  MAIL=/var/mail/myname
	      #  Add my /bin directory to the shell search sequence
		  PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
	      # Set terminal type
		  echo "terminal: c"
		  read TERM
		  case $TERM in
		      300)	stty cr2 nl0 tabs; tabs;;
		      300s)	stty cr2 nl0 tabs; tabs;;
		      450)	stty cr2 nl0 tabs; tabs;;
		      hp)	stty cr0 nl0 tabs; tabs;;
		      745|735)	stty cr1 nl] -tabs; TERM=745;;
		      43)	stty cr1 nl0 -tabs;;
