After hosing programs with my termcap file created from my terminfo file, I'll be more careful with such translations. I just can't bear the thought of maintaining both ... :) Below is a table detailing the differences between Earnie's terminfo entry he posted the other day and the one that I now use. The changes necessary to take advantage of my fhandler_console.cc patch are at the beginning.

He could mean ECMA-48's CPR, but that isn't implemented in Cygwin. (2) Not implemented very usefully in stock Cygwin. (3) Some programs incorrectly assume that turning off some modes reset everything. If you want this behavior, keep these set to \E[m. Brad Town -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
