I have been unable to translate my termcap entry for my new tvi965 into terminfo format. I need to do this because the version of vi that we run uses curses with terminfo. I use Emacs, but everybody else uses vi. Is there an automated way to accomplish what I want? Tic whines incessantly about my entry. I really want the other users to stop using the tvi950 entry 'cause it leaves ugly magic cookies.

Try 'man -k terminfo' on a SV system. HP-UX has a command captoinfo(1M/8). AT&T 3.2 has infocmp(1?) and maybe some other captoinfo type commands if I remember correctly.

Is there an automated way to accomplish what I want? believe it or don't "captoinfo" is the program you want. Most sysV systems I've seen come with it, perhaps in /usr/lib or /etc, /lbin /urs/lbin or /usr/local, look around. I have no idea where to get sources (or even if they are available). --Ken -- kendy@ism.isc.com (213)453-8649 x3153 "I'm Chloe. Let's wrassle!"
