TCC 17.00.62 on Win 7 [Version 6.1.7601].
This is almost certainly trivial and obvious, so apologies in advance.
I've been a user since the earliest of days, and I've been on TCMD/TCC 10.x for quite some time now. I finally decided to upgrade, and bought 17 today. I copied my tcmd.ini from my 10 directory to 17, then fired up TCC. I set the background on the session to blue like always, and made a few other adjustments to font size, etc.
The problem is the blue background doesn't stick, e.g. when I do a directory, everything after the first screensize lines has a blue background on the text itself, but not the rest of the line (see attached). As a data point, the same thing happens with TCMD17, but I don't use TCMD very often.
This doesn't happen with TCC 10 (or CMD); it's all blue background, all the time. I remember seeing this type of problem in the very olden days of DOS, but I haven't encountered it in so long I don't remember what to do to fix it. I tried checking and unchecking ANSI Colors in Option; neither helped.
What do I not remember?
Thanks!
Update: Weird. This just started working in TCC17. I did a directory, it did what the picture showed for a few lines, then went back to a solid blue. Subsequent operations showed all solid blue. I exited TCC17 and started a new session, which also worked, i.e. has solid blue background all the time. I made no changes to anything.
The problem still exists in TCMD17. I exited and started a new session after it started working in TCC17, but the problem persists in TCMD.
