GT.M has a page on sourceforge where you can get sup****t from FIS:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/fis-gtm/
 click on "Sup****t Requests"

Thanks Sam,
We tried to change the TERM variable to other types such as dumb or
printer, but W # still clears the screen. I understand that it's
handled in GT.M internals, sr_****t/iott_wtff.c . Is there any
workaround? Is there an OPEN or USE parameter to change this
behaviour?
When writing to (RMS) sequential files W # genetates a form-feed (*12).
