ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for Screen Management Routines in OpenVMS Alpha

Problems addressed in the ALPSMGR02_070 kit:
o There was a conflict in the ALPSMGR01_070 ECO kit between
the KITINSTAL.COM file and the SMGRTL.VUI.
Problems addressed in the ALPSMGR01_070 kit:
o SMG incorrectly treats viewports as if they are visible
when, in fact, they are not. This causes stray characters
to be displayed in a viewport after scrolling.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
In order for the corrections in this kit to take effect, the system
must be rebooted. If the system is a member of a VMScluster, the
entire cluster should be rebooted.
