[net.micro.pc] IBM termcap wanted

hornburg@ittral.UUCP (Robert Hornburg) (01/13/84)

We have recently bought an IBM pc which we'd like to used under
4.1 BSD *UNIX*.  We'd like to use as much of the capability of the
IBM as we can.

Before I sit down and try to generate a termcap entry for the IBM
I was wondering if anyone out there has already written one and is
willing to share it.  Also, any ideas on how to provide a good
method of information between the IBM and *UNIX* would be greatly
appreciated (IBM has the RS-232 equivalent port).

Thanks in advance,

-Bob Hornburg

I have a software package that will emulate an improved
HP2621 on the IBM pc so that you can use 'vi' 'emacs', etc.
that uses 'curses'. It will also support XMODEM protocol for
BBSs and has user definable functions keys. It is written in
PASCAL and MACRO and is available **FREE** with source if
you will send me a floppy disk and a self addressed
**STAMPED** return envelop. It has its own TERMCAP and will
also support upload/download from UNIX(tm)..
