Hi. Does  anyone have a termcap entry for the HP 35741a terminal I have
hooked to my HP 9000. All I have is terminfo. Thanks in advance!

The 35741A is just a color monitor,  not a terminal.  If it is connected
to a ...

  2397A  Terminal,  then use a terminfo of 2397, 2397a, hp2397, hp2397a,
		    2627, 2627a, hp2627 or hp2627a

  98543A RGB card,  then use a terminfo of 300l, hp300l, hp98542 or 
		    hp98542a

  HP Vectra,        then it depends on what terminal emulator you are 
		    using.  Reflection 3 emulates the 2627A.  AdvanceLink
		    emulates the HP 2392A or 2393A, depending on vintage.

Once you have found a terminfo entry that works, you can use untic(1m)
to get a human-readable form resembling a termcap entry.  However, I'm
afraid you'll have to do a manual translation from there (captoinfo(1m)
translates in the other direction).
