[net.internat] Cap Names for Terminfo

ricker@bunker.UUCP (James A. Ricker) (05/14/86)

The posting of the latest information on Termcap(4) was appreciated. Now does
anyone know what the corresponding names should be in Terminfo(4). For example,
if the two-character code for the string sent by home key is "%1", what is the
corresponding Terminfo name.

Also, what is the ordering of these capabilities in the capnames file. tic
depends upon that ordering.

At this point in time, you might as well wait for the SVR3 documentation.
Supposedly SVR3 will be announced at the Atlanta USENIX meeting in June.
