Hello

Although I have no problem using SecureCRT (5.1.2 build 274) to work from Windows and connect to PC's running Linux, I have a problem when connecting to an embedded Asterisk appliance that provides"vi" through BusyBox 1.4.1 (2008-03-10).

The issue I'm having, is that when I paste code into vi, the text appears jagged like this:

<?php                                                                                                                               
try {                                                                                                                               
        $dbh = new PDO("sqlite:./db.sqlite");                                                                                       
                $dbh->exec("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS customer (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, name VARCHAR(255))");        

Does someone what the problem is? Is there a way to reconfigure either BusyBox or SecureCRT so that I can paste successfully?

Thank you.
