[net.micro.cpm] IMP on C-128

prindle@nadc.ARPA (10/29/86)

The C-128 screen is just enough shy of an adm-31 to cause trouble with the
standard termcap for adm-31.  Use the following termcap:

#This entry is for the Commodore 128 in 80 column CP/M mode running any terminal
#package which passes all keys and screen characters directly (e.g. IMP)
qe|c128|C128|Commodore 128 CP/M 80 Col X 24 Lin:co#80:li#24:\
	:al=\EE:am:bs:ce=\ET:cm=\E=%+ %+ :\
	:cl=\E*:cd=\EY:dc=\EW:dl=\ER:ei=:\
	:ic=\EQ:im=:ho=^^:nd=^L:so=\EG4:\
	:se=\EG0:up=^K:us=\EG3:ue=\EG0:

I made this up and have been hapily using it for 6 months or so without a 
problem (4.1BSD mind you).

You'll find that insert-character on the 128 screen is slow enough to drive you
crazy.  Solution - use the "vi" command R on an empty line and it will not
send insert-character - much faster text entry.  For real inserts, you'll just
have to get used to the slow inserts.
