I need a termcap entry for an Atari 130xe with an Indus drive running
Antic's Chameleon vt52xl terminal emulation.
The one below (supplied with the disk) does not clear the screen
when 'vi' is invoked on our vax and the tildes are on the right hand side
of the screen.
Please *MAIL* me any suggestions or improved entries.
I would also appreciate an explanation of what yours does and
why the one below doesn't work.
Thanks,
Dani Roloson
DOESN'T WORK:
set noglob;
setenv TERM vt52xl ;
setenv TERMCAP 'xl|vt52xl|Chameleon VT-52xl:so=\EF:se=\EG:al=\EN:dl=\EO:im:em:ic=\EL:dm:ed:dc=\EM:bs:cd=\EJ:ce=\EK:cl=\EH\EJ:cm=\EY%+ %+ :co#80:li#24:nd=\EC:pt:sr=\EI:up=\EA:ku=\EA:kd=\EB:kr=\EC:kl=\ED:';
unset noglob;
echo Chameleon supported ;

Nobody will admit to knowing me." Interestingly, this is the termcap that I have been using from a 130XE to a Gould UNIX like computer/software and it works fine. However, when trying to use the same termcap to our VAX 780, I get something similar to that described. I loose my cursor to the lower right hand corner when in any form of vi editing and I do not get a clear screen when reading news. At one point, however, this termcap did work on the 780 or on a 750, I am not sure which. My conclusion is that some form of VAX software upgrade screwed this termcap up, hence the reason it still works on the Gould. I also, would be interested if someone has a fix on the problem. As I say, I think that the problem only shows up on some forms of UNIX. --Bill--
