I have been building termcap entries for some new terminals
lately, and come to find out that the termcap documentation lives
up to the standard set by the rest of the Unix software. Since I
don't have access to the source for the termcap libraries (we
have a source license and a paranoid system management), this is
a problem.

So if anybody out there has a list of what *all* the things you
can put in a termcap entry do, I'd greatly appreciate seeing it.
If I get multiple answers with different lists, I'll verify the
singletons & post the results to the net.


	Thanx much,

As far as I know, the only documentation for termcap entries are the
man pages (termcap.3 and termcap.5).  These explain the functions
available but not how to debug them.
