+The HP Procurve switches that are Foundry OEMs use flogin, not hlogin.
 .SH BUGS
 All these login scripts for separate devices should be rolled into one.
+.PP
+The HP Procurve switch CLI relies heavily upon curses based cursor/screen
+manipulation and assumes a vt100 terminal type.  They do not provide a way
+to set a different terminal type or adjust this behavior.  The resulting
+escape codes make automating interaction with these devices very difficult
+or impossible.  Therefore, bin/hpfilter is used by hlogin to filter these.
+While this works for rancid's collection, there are side effects for
+interactive logins via hlogin; most of which are formatting annoyances that
+may be remedied by hitting CTRL-R to reprint the current line.
