[misc.wanted] Wanted: termcap for Tandy "CoCo 1"

steve@nshore.uucp (Stephen J. Walick) (08/25/90)

I have posted this following request to another news group, but have
had no response now for about three weeks.  Not a usual reader of these
particular news groups, I happened to see a question asked about
"...access for Color Computer", discussing the Tandy Color Computer.
So, maybe here, some one can offer some help.

Am trying to accommodate a new shell user on our system, but cannot
find a suitable termcap to function with his Tandy CoCo 1 color com-
puter system.  We do have "quasi" success emulating a "vt52", but,
because his "CoCo 1" has a monitor capable of 32 columns by 24 lines,
problems are encountered.  (However, when the < XBBS > system is used,
there problems encountered when using "shell access" seem greatly
diminished.)  Does anybody know of a "termcap" that can be used on a
system using SCO-Xenix 2.3.3 that can remedy these problems, or may
be able to offer a way to circumvent all this?  Thank you muchly, on
both of our behalfs.  'E-mail' reply "uunet!ncoast!nshore!steve", if
you would please.  THANKS.
